Reppin' for the 513, Cincinnati DJ and part-time MC Hi-Tek has worked with Mos Def, Talib Kweli, and even 50 Cent in the past, but his second solo album is all him. Well, him and a couple dozen of his high-profile MC friends.

Featuring contributions from the aforementioned Kweli, as well as Ghostface Killah, Common, Nas, Q-Tip, Busta Rhymes, The Game, Jadakiss, Bun B, Devin the Dude, Kurupt, Papoose, the late J Dilla, and many others, Hi-Teknology 2: The Chip is Hi-Tek's first album since the original Hi-Teknology dropped in 2001.

Hi-Teknology 2: The Chip hits the streets October 17 via Babygrande Records. As previously reported, Hi-Tek guests on the new Talib Kweli record, and joins Kweli, OK Go, and Bootsy Collins for the grand re-opening of Cincinnati's Fountain Square tomorrow, October 14.
