Cons is not giving up on Don’t Quit Your Day Job just yet. I wonder if the aggressive promotion will amount to overkill.

Now this is what you call a random lineup: Termanology, Royce da 5′9″, Akrobatik (of The Perceptionists), Crooked I, and Consequence.

I’m not even going to complain that they waited four years to make a video for “The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly” (anyone remember it from LRM’s pre-College Dropout mixtape?). This should have been the first video off Cons’ album.

“Breakfast of Champions” is the latest video from Cons to the Quence. He does some serious justice to GangStarr’s “Skillz” beat. I don’t know too many MCs that can ride that beat without tracing Guru’s flow. They say Dr. Dre’s beats brings out the best in every rapper. Premo’s beats brings out the MC in every rapper.

Taken from The Cons…Vol 5

Talib Kweli’s excellent new video for “Everything Man”

“Don’t Forget ‘Em” is taken from the potential sleeper of the year, Don’t Quit Your Day Job. Now, why Consequence didn’t drop this single earlier is beyond me.
