Tiombe, Nick & Todd are…
CUBIC ZIRCONIA
Mixtape Vol. 1: CZ Does London


Alright, so first things first – lets get some FAQ’s out of the way about the Queen Of Doom, Ms. Tiombe Lockhart.

“Where the *#$^ is Tiombe?!” Brooklyn.
“Why wasn’t she on the new PPP??” The whole cast changed, dummy.
“What’s she working on??” Cubic Zirconia.

CZ is a new group consisting Tiombe and her new partners in crime, Nick & Todd, who are both former members of the group, Men, Women & Children. With their powers combined (Captain Planet style) – they are Cubic Zirconia. Their sound is an amalgamation of both their former entities’ respective sounds, but more than anything – it’s something brand new.

As an introduction to the group, they’ve put together a 30+ minute mix, which as they put it is “a few of our tunes, a few songs we like, and some other stuff mixed in for good measure.” And if you caught the debut of one of their first songs, “I Wanna Freebase You” (included here) in the FSR podcast last week, then you should have an idea of what to expect – but even that is just the beginning. I think it’s always good to shake things up a bit – so you guys don’t get too comfortable. Leave a comment and lemme know what you think of this one. WARNING: THIS IS NOT ON SOME NEO-SOUL OR HIP-HOP SHIT - SO DON’T GO INTO IT WITH THOSE EXPECTATIONS.

Tracklisting below, download link after that & Cubic Zirconia tour dates in NY & London after the jump. Oh, and Eazy-E fans – be sure to listen to the mixtape all the way through to the end. Trust me on this one.
