The Wizard "Iz" In The House


So Timbaland's camp is revamped and continues its massive presence in 2oo9! I mean just when you think Keri Hilson was it, Timbo pulls another out of his sleeve.

Izza Kizza is the latest edition from Camp Timbo. With a blend of hipster meets hop cool, Izza's sounds appeal to all! His mixtape, "The Wizard of Iz" dropped this week and you can have your own personal download by clicking the title of the article. Don't you just love free gifts!!!!

About The Mixtape:
2nd in a series of collaborations between Izza Kizza & Nick Catchdubs, The Wizard of Iz features the likes of David Banner, Lil Wayne, Birdman, Colin Munroe, Anthony Hamilton, and production from Souldiggaz, Koolade & Nottz. Izza Kizza’s debut solo album is dropping this Summer on Decon.


His videos are dope. The artistic direction is very creative and eye catching!

Maxwell Moves...But Is Still Coming

Le' sigh! July 7th Guys & Gals! But at least we still have something in 2009. I heard 4 tracks ("Bad Habits", "Stop This World", "Love You", and "Help Me") from the new album, "Black Summer's Night" [a triology] this week...OMG! Pure Fire!!!!!

The track "Bad Habits" began very "Love Jones" ish then ended up in a blend of Marvin Gaye, Bill Withers, Stevie Wonder type vibe.

The instrumentation is AWESOME. The way the horns and percussions crescendo in and out.

Each track that I heard was at least a minimum of 5 minutes long!

Info on a listening session near you coming soon. See him at the Essence Music Festival in New Orleans, July 3-5th! www.essencemusicfestival.com

I'm taking you back...with another one! Oh what I'd give to be the lather in that shower lol!
