E-40, Keak, Turf Talk, Federation & Nump on DJ Shadow's 'The Outsider' (tracklisting)
As previously mentioned, the disc features guest spots from David Banner, Q-Tip, Keak Da Sneak, and Turf Talk, as well as contributions from Little Brother's Phonte, Lateef the Truth Speaker, hyphy pioneer E-40, and Christina Carter, who is indeed the girl from Charalambides!
Tracklist:
01 Outsider Intro
02 This Time (I'm Gonna Try It My Way)
03 3 Freaks (feat. Keak Da Sneak & Turf Talk)
04 Droop-E Drop
05 Turf Dancing (feat. The Federation & Animaniaks)
06 Keep Em Close (feat. Nump)
07 Seein Thangs (feat. David Banner)
08 Broken Levee Blues
09 Artifact [Instrumental]
10 Backstage Girl (feat. Phonte Coleman)
11 Triplicate/Something Happened That Day
12 The Tiger (feat. Sergio Pizzorno & Christopher Karloff)
13 Erase You (feat. Chris James)
14 What Have I Done (feat. Christina Carter)
15 You Made It (feat. Chris James)
16 Enuff (feat. Q-Tip & Lateef the Truth Speaker)
17 Dats My Part (feat. E-40)
Solesides.com, the unofficial online resource for all things Quannum, mentions that "Dats My Part" is "perhaps the first time that DJ Shadow has been called ‘pimp' on record. Or ever," and that it uses "the Super Mario coin noise (‘BLLLLINNNG!') as a percussion element." YES! "Turf Dancing" is called "the clubbiest track" on the album, "Keep Em Close" is a "creeper," and "Enuff" is "the most un-DJ Shadow moment," with Q-Tip and Lateef "teaming up over wildly upbeat guitar strums and a pop chorus."
So this sounds like a pretty fun album, but unfortunately, it still doesn't have an exact release date. Shadow does say on his website, "The latest news I'm hearing is a late August release." We'll just have to content ourselves with that tracklist while we wait.
