Twenty-plus year veterans of releasing music, Bronx, New York duo Showbiz & A.G. (a/k/a Show & A.G.) have announced plans for a new full-length album. The group, which first appeared on Lord Finesse’s 1990 debut with Mike Smooth, The Funky Technician, went on to be founding members (with Finesse and others) of the Diggin’ In The Crates crew, spawning the careers of Fat Joe and Big L, among others.
The pair’s upcoming album is to be called Suspended Animation, as a title track 
leaked to the Internet this week. This will be the group’s first collaborative album since 2007’s Live Hard, released on Show’s D.I.T.C. Records imprint by “The Show & A Experience.” This year, Show teamed with KRS-One to release Godsville, while A.G. released his latest solo, Everything’s Berri last year.

WTF, who edits shit on here
Kid Vishis is formely known as Tre Little, Tre little is a whole different person.
Tre Little is royce’s former homeboy/partner in rhyme,
“Formerly known as Tre Little, [Kid] Vishis has appeared…” Really, Jake? Really? Does anyone at HipHopDX even care anymore?
I just paid $23,98 for an iPad2-64GB and my girlfriend loves her Panasonic Lumix GF 1 Camera that we got for $37,59 there arriving tomorrow by UPS. I will never pay such expensive retail prices in stores again. Especially when I also sold a 40 inch LED TV to my boss for $677 which only cost me $72,13 to buy. Here is the website we use to get it all from, CentStart.com
SHOWBIZ & AG = ORIGINAL “BOOMBAP”!! NOT THAT Watch the Throne CRAP!!!!!!!!!
I think Styles P would sound good on that track
WTF Premo!? you cant get in the studio with nas but you making beats for these corny niggas.
Corny niggas? Fuck outta here.
STFU, Nas is the one who doesn’t want to work with Premo. Premo asked for him on almost all his concerts. He said he’s ready at anytime, that the door is always open for Nas, but this faggot is too scared, because he ain’t got it no more and the results would be disappointing as fuck. Reks rips Premier’s beats to shreds nowadays.
Corny?? What the fuck you smokin?? Get off Nas Dick Faggot and RESPECT YOUR ELDERS!!!
Salute to SB&A for rockin ill shit! AG been doin his thing!!!
Corny? Say that in real hip hop circles, better yet, say that ish in Mott Haven nicca…you’ll get bodied!
AG is a cool dude…and a legend
Always got them bars and Show is a beast!
Any way it’s said this is great hip hop news for all the real hip hop heads, the hip hop culture, and most especially Bronx hip hop music which seems to be taking a back seat of late….Bring it back y’all, BX all day!!!
You can tell these niggas got respect. Less Than 10 comments and one hatin faggot. REAL HIP HOP SHIT!!
NoOne can talk greasy about these dudes, they did they thing, and are pushing, they deserve the fruits of their labor.

GO TO ASCAP AND CHECK FOR YOURSELF
50 went on to claim he wrote on more songs on Game’s The Documentary than he was credited for, including “Church for Thugs,” “Special” and “Higher.”
“I did so much on his record, I did six records,” 50, who is featured on The Documentary’s “Hate It or Love It,” “Westside Story” and “How We Do,” scoffed. “To take the time and energy from what I’m doing on my record and create his record, then have him go off at his mouth like that and be disrespectful … “Game had actually been on AftermatH for TWO YEARS before they gave me the opportunity to do the project with Dre,” 50 told MTV in January. “I think creatively they were stuck a little, but then when I was brought in we were able to add new energy. They got excited about the project, brought him out, we recorded like nine records at the house in Farmington, [Connecticut]. He went back to Los Angeles with the records, Dre liked them, and I just got him re-motivated and he went in and finished up the album.”The Game and 50’s marriage was never a natural union to begin with. Game was originally signed solely to Dr. Dre’s Aftermath imprint, working on his album for a couple of years before Interscope Chairman Jimmy Iovine proposed bringing Game into the G-Unit fold. Iovine talked to Dre, who called in 50.
GAME IS A TRUE STUDIO GANGSTA
This is about Show & AG. Not about that tiredsome dumb ass 50 and Game who wrote the records beef that nobody cares about. Next time read the article and show some respect to what the article is suppose to be about.
I can’t wait for this album to come out. The Preloaded mixtape was banging from start to finish.
Looking forward to buying this.. mixtape was great stuff.
