The date is finally set for the release of Raekwon’s Only Built For Cuban Linx…PT II.  Die hard Wu Tang fans have been anticipating this album for years.  You already know that the first one is in my TOP FIVE.  Personally, I think the sequel should be entirely produced by Rza, but I admit I’m excited to hear what other producers like Alchemist and Westchester’s own Scram Jones are going to contribute to the second coming of the Purple Tape.  I’m confident that Raekwon and his co-host Ghostface (and the numerous other confirmed and rumored contributors) will not disappoint.  Let’s take a trip down memory lane and watch the videos from Only Built For Cuban Linx…

“Heaven and Hell”

“Glaciers of Ice”

“Incarcerated Scarfaces”

“Criminology”

“Ice Cream”

Can’t wait for PT II….Check the video for the first official street leak off the album, “New Wu (Wu Ooh)” featuring Ghostface and Method Man.  If the album is consistent with the sound of this song, we’re in for a treat.  I like this joint…

Hot 97’s Peter Rosenberg will be interviewing Raekwon at his upcoming Noisemakers event on July 29th at the 92Y in Tribeca.  Def gonna try to make it out for that.  Would love to hear some good old Shaolin stories from the man himself.  That’s it for now.  I’ll call you back at the god hour.  Scream.
