OK
here's the tracklisting to "Black August Revisited":
1. Intro (ft.
Rudy) (Produced by Kallisto)
2. Big World (Produced by Javon)
3. Greatest Lesson (Produced by Jahson)
4. The Last Supper (Produced by Just Blaze)
5. Time (ft. Dreddy Kruger & Savoy) (Produced by G-13)
6. Movie (Produced by Jahson)
7. Mind As A Weapon (ft. Hell Razah) (Produced by 4th Disciple)
8. Street Opera (ft. Hell Razah) (Produced by 4th Disciple)
9. Do The Damn Thing (Remix) (ft. Ol' Dirty Bastard) (Produced
by Mr. Khaliyl)
10. Turn Around (Produced by Full Moon (Arash))
11. Vengeance (ft. Ras Kass) (Produced by Jahson)
12. Militant (ft. Kurupt) (Produced by John Shapiro)
13. The Rain (ft. Main Flow) (Produced by Tiny)
14. People (Produced by Kallisto)
15. Genesis (Produced by Killah Priest) [Bonus Track]
Judging by the
songs I'd say it's a mix of leftover cuts from "Black August"
and "Heavy Mental" and possibly "View From Masada"
as well. The final song "Genesis" is very likely to
be in the same tradition as "Heavy Mental"/"Temple
of the Mental"/"Places Where Pharoahs Go".
According to
Dreddy Kruger, the CD itself is actually a collection of songs
which contain samples or beats which KP's various labels did
not want to pay for. "Black August Revisited" is executively
produced and arranged by Dreddy himself. He is making available
at HipHopSite.com
only (not sure when just yet) with a limited edition poster
included. No skits, or DJ babblings etc. and it's packaged like
a major label album so think "professional".
Dreddy's also
got some Masta Killa "for DJ's only" T-shirts
which I assume will also be sold via HipHopSite.com.
I'll keep you posted on this.
RZA's first song
(presumably from his new album) will be called "Gritz"
featuring Masta Killa. The pair have just shot the video for
the song also.
Masta Killa will
drop his next single "Queen/Silverbacks" featuring
GZA and Deck respectively in November. Both tracks are produced
by True Master. MK's long awaited solo is still slated for a
January 2004 release.

It
would appear that Killah Priest has yet another album due out.
Well sort of... It's called "Black August Revisited"
and will feature unreleased exclusives which did not make the
final cut first time round. Check the exclusive cover art here.
I will post the
inside cover and a tracklisting to this soon.
I also have some
new improved/alternate cover art to the Masta Killa/J-Love mix
CD "No Said Date", which you can find in the Image
Gallery: Misc. Album Covers section.
