Truly Scary: Halloween in Queensbridge? 

Happy Halloween - click for more info on the MF Doom-O=Lantern!!!

Happy Halloween! Here's a few ghoulish treats from the QB to celebrate the witching hour:

Mobb Deep "Go Head" - a previously unreleased cut from the brand new Life of the Infamous... Best of Mobb Deep collection from Sony Legacy recordings. How funny is it that QB's grimiest are getting the legacy treatment alongside artists like Nina Simone. The album includes liner notes written by their original A&R (at 4th & Bway) and Official Street Cat Bonz Malone so don't just d/l this joint - go cop! Click here for more details.

Nas
"Hip Hop is Dead" - a pretty flagrant re-use (after "Thief's Theme" on his last album) of the Incredible Bongo Band’s cover of Iron Butterfly’s “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida” but Nas has said “I’m going to continue using them again and again.” (spotted via Rizoh alternate link: Zshare download/share)

Special throwback joint: Noreaga feat. Nas & Nature "Blood Money (Part 2)" from the Ride soundtrack. "Blood Money (Part 1 )" is also on that new Best Of Mobb Deep mentioned above as well as that rare-as-a-muh'f-cker "Shook Ones Pt. I." (alternate link: Zshare download/share)
