Music news Jim Jonsin and No I.D. to contribute to Killer Mike's next album

Since aligning with T.I.'s Grand Hustle label for major distribution via Atlantic, Atlanta rapper Killer Mike has been on his studio grind. Hip-hop writer Maurice Garland recently posted exclusive footage of Mike in the studio with producer No I.D. (Kanye West's mentor) after the two completed material for Mike's upcoming release. But don't expect to hear any music; they're being real protective.
The video above, from UNN, shows Mike interviewing versatile producer Jim Jonsin (Lil Wayne's "Lollipop," T.I.'s "Whatever You Like"), who'll also contribute production to the album. In the interview, Jonsin says his mother was into R&B and disco and his father was a rock and roll head — which accounts for the hybrid sound he's been lending to hip-hop via production for such artists as Decatur's B.O.B.
