A message from the wonderful Karina blog! www.karinanistal.com

Dedicated, focused, organized, and I honestly can’t remember the last time I had this much fun working on a project! Second, I have to say THANKS to Big Mike for the artwork and NajMeen for getting us recorded in 1 night! It was quite the task but we did it!
Last, I want to thank everyone who has supported me over the years and really truly showed me love…even when times got hard and I didn’t know my direction. I appreciate all of the L.O.V.E. and encouragement I’ve gotten and those people don’t even realize how significant their timing has been during recent challenges. THIS MIXTAPE IS FOR YOU! Everyone who has given me something, shown me something, put me on or not – I want to give you this gift. I’m proud of it. It’s raw but it’s REAL and it’s Hip Hop!

I will always love you, Houston!
Enjoy it! And spread the link to all your peeps!
L.O.V.E.

Life is Better by QTip & Norah Jones

Lyrically, “the Abstract” (Q-Tip calls himself) continues to redefine the Hip Hop genre. He has helped music shift away from gangsta life toward progression for a unified hip-hop culture. The question is; how will Houston adapt?
