“Everyday is like a Holiday. Something like Christmas Eve….”
MP3: Talib Kweli – How You Love Me by Nothing Can Save You
Vaguely holiday-themed track from Kweli’s Gutter Rainbows album available January 25th (digital-only in North America & all formats in the rest of the World).

This is cool! Check the background:
“While recording his 2004 LP The Pretty Toney Album, Ghostface sent a track to his Wu-Tang brother Masta Killa, hoping for a guest verse. Killa didn’t get his verse in until it was too late, and Ghost ended up putting Styles P & Sheek Louch on the track, which came to be known as “Metal Lungies.” With the release of the Wu compilation Masta Killa Presents: The Next Chamber, the original “Metal Lungies” is revealed, giving fans a little glimspe into Wu history.”

The Next Chamber is in stores now (it dropped Nov. 16) and is available on iTunes, Amazon, and all other digital retailers. iTunes buyers also get 5 exclusive videos with Wu-Tang concert footage, interviews, and more.
Bonus:
Hit the jump to listen to listen to some tracks from Ghostface’s new Apollo Kids album, which just dropped this week I believe (?). There’s baiscally been no promo for it and I’m not sure what others are saying, but I think it’s fantastic! Y’all?
