Q-Tip and Busta Rhymes Bring the Funk on ‘Butch & Sundance’

Q-Tip and Busta Rhymes' collaborative mixtape, 'The Abstract and the Dragon,' is hitting the Internet at midnight (Dec. 12), but the duo dropped another track to alleviate fans' thirst for the next few hours.

'Butch & Sundance' premiered on GQ, and the song finds the two performing technical acrobatics once again, albeit not at the same tight pace as the impressive 'Thank You.' The two trade bars over a bass-heavy, funkier beat in place of the glittering Alicia Myers sample.

There's going to be a lot more bars to be traded on 'The Abstract and the Dragon.' The mixtape also features previews of tracks from Busta's upcoming album, 'E.L.E. 2 (Extinction Level Event 2 ),' and Q-Tip's LP, 'The Last Zulu.' Both projects are due in 2014.

'The Abstract and the Dragon' will be available on the rap duo's official website here.
