No, that is not a typo; Talib Kweli and Hurricane Chris are really on the same track.  What could possibly bring these artists, known for two wildly different styles of hip-hop, together?  The recession, of course!  On this newly-leaked record, the Brooklyn Blacksmith and the Shreveport Ratchet head down to Dallas to Go Get The Money and help artists/producers Play N Skillz overcome their own recession story.  Though the twosome never actually got paid for their Grammy-winning work on Lil Wayne & T-Pain‘s Got Money, they’re still on the grind—here, Play (the rapper) and Skillz (the singer) each step up to the mic to detail their dedication to their hustle.  There’s nothing new to report on forthcoming LP Out Tha Box, but if Play N Skillz succeed in proving their Recession Proof status with their latest mixtape (which also has yet to receive a release date), the studio album may well follow close behind.

Proof that new school, old school, trendy and everlasting can work together to make some nice tunage.

I don't know if it was my interview time with Chris, but I am really starting to appreciate his niche in this game. The man has skills. Talib is, well.... Talib. Nice record.

This weird combination of artists might turn away a few listeners but its dope! The beat is solid and both Talib Kweli & Chris bring some hot lyrics. Nice summer vibe..from a mixtape standpoint this is banging! 3.5 stars but im feelin nice so I'll round up

It's a given wit these guys, but the production is nice. That's the best part of the song, then Kweli is actually a perfect fit to spit over it. The hook is cool and Play is tight, but I'm not feelin Chris at all. Still rotation worthy, tho.

These guys are taking forever in putting out that album and this is on a mixtape. That being said I liked it. Production was cool and I was feeling both guest verses (yes, even Chris).

Two stars for the song. But what I wanna find out about them is not getting paid for that Lil Wayne song...?

They never got payed for Got Money? WTF

This was surprisingly decent (especially considering im not usually a fan of Play N Skillz on the boards or Hurricane Chris). Talib came correct, while Chris played his part in making this track decent.

The production is pretty but how they hell are they rapping? They all sounded kinda boring, above all in the verses. The overall result is repetitive

The beat sounds like a J.U.S.T.I.C.E League knock off! Talib couldn't save these doods on the mic. No half steppin.
