Busta Rhymes is back with a brand new project that blends the old school and the new generation of New York Hip-Hop.

On Friday, November 18, Busta Buss finally delivered his new EP The Fuse Is Lit via The Conglomerate and EMPIRE. The five-track project, executively produced by Busta himself, consists of his previously released collaboration "Slap" featuring Conway The Machine and Big Daddy Kane. Other songs include the Swizz Beatz-produced "Break This B*tch Up," "Bulletproof Skin" featuring Skillibeng and "Run It Up" featuring Capella Grey. He also has another track called "Hot Sex Pt. 2" which samples A Tribe Called Quest's classic "Hot Sex."

Busta first announced the project earlier this month over a week after he released "Slap." He initially planned to drop the EP on November 11 but he graciously pushed back the release following the death of Takeoff. The Migos rapper was laid to rest last Friday during a massive funeral at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta.

The Fuse Is Lit arrives two years after he dropped his album Extinction Level Event 2: The Wrath of God. The sequel to his third studio album features collaborations with Pete Rock, Rakim, M.O.P., Bell Biv DeVoe, Ol' Dirty Bastard, Q-Tip, Rick Ross, Anderson .Paak, Rapsody, Mariah Carey, Kendrick Lamar, Mary J. Blige and more. Since then, he's appeared on songs with the late Phife Dawg, El Alfa, Dr. Dre and Lion Babe.
