Rap Release Dates: Nipsey Hussle, Slim Thug & Z-Ro, The Roots & Elvis Costello, Dirty Science

    A few new announcements were made this week regarding fall album release dates.

    Nipsey Hussle has finally pinned down a release date for his upcoming project with DJ Drama. Crenshaw is slated for an October 8 release as the California rapper also dropped the artwork for the album.

    Slim Thug and Z-Ro will team up to release a collaborative album. The Texas two will drop A King & A Boss Tuesday. The Roots and Elvis Costello also release music on Tuesday. Wise Up Ghost will be released via Blue Note Records.

    Dirty Science will be releasing a collaborative album in 2014. The record label/crew is set to showcase new music from the group and many of its affiliates on the project. According to Dag Savage’s Johaz, the album’s release “Could be sometime at the top of the year, January or February… That’s something we cookin’ up, so we wanna get people familiar with seeing us all together.”

    Lexington, Kentucky-based emcee Nemo Achida will release the extended version of his July retail release, Midnight Magic LP. Midnight Magic Extended will release on October 1 and will feature four new songs.
