Besides his recent Charles Hamilton diss track and a guest verse on Scram JonesYes We Can, the Booth hasn’t heard from Chi-town native Rhymefest in quite a while —in fact, his last featured cut, Real Quotes, hit our front page way back in November of ‘07.  Fortunately for fans, though, the industry vet is by no means off his grind; in anticipation of his long-awaited sophomore LP, El Che, he’s preparing to drop a new pre-album mixtape called The Manual.  This newly-released cut finds Rhymesayer and femcee/actress Queen Latifah joining forces to send a simple message: though times are tough, they’re Goin’ In—that is, they’re determined to rise above the struggles and live life to its fullest.  The ‘Queen of Rap’ is sure to impress as she describes her personal triumphs over Dub Santana‘s slow-burning synth instrumental, but the record truly hits its stride when Rhymefest steps into the spotlight to paint his struggle in more universal terms.  The Manual has yet to receive a solid release date—keep your eyes glued to the Booth for further details.

Man, the Queen brought the ENERGY here. That opening verse was insane. Although this is an odd collabo, I can really feel it. I wish the energy from the first 30 seconds carried throughout the whole song, but oh well. Rhymefest had some great lyrics, really listen for the message here. Banger.

Yeah, I am with you guys. Queen definitely brought some energy to the beginning of the song. That energy dropped off as the song went on, but it is still rotation status to me. Rhymefest dropped some good bars on here.

My favorite female rapper is back tending to her original art...RAP! Great song, good message. May have been a classic if Queen had just one more verse.

[Z is really diggin' this unique collaboration, the words the artists are uttering (he begs you to listen), and the positive vibe of the record].

Sidebar: Queen, if you happen to read this... PLEASE do one last rap album. Female emcees all over the world need it.

This is hot, Rhymefest was fair nice on this & Latifah definitely brought some energy to the song. The production was also pretty sweat.

Probably the best song i've heard from Rhymefest since 'Brand New' (Which was surprisingly slept on by radio)

Can't quite put my finger on it, but this track has something really unique going on for it. Latifah just captivated you off from the get-go, but like what the others said, Rhymefest wasn't able to hold the bar up to what Latifah set it as. Great to hear that Latifah still has it, but she's got some talent; she even sounded great on that jazz album she put out.

Ah...Rhymefest...how I missed him. They both "Go In" and its great. The beat fits the theme and they both flow and rhyme as well as I would expect from them.

I really don't like the repetitive flow, like on the 3rd verse... Latifah sounded better.

Queen Latifah sounds GREAT on this! Rhymefest def does his thing too, and the hook is cool. I like the positive message of the song.

I don't know this Rhymefest but I don't like his voice, like someone else wrote he sounds rather weird! I'm loving the beat and the hook, Queen Latifah sang and rapped really good! 3,5

Why did she stop...? Just one more verse. Rhymefest held it down, but the Queen should've jumped back in somewhere....
