Nas . The man. The myth. The enigma. I've never really known how to describe Nas properly throughout my years of listening to Hip-Hop. For as much as his music will forever speak for him (how it should be), it's what he says (or doesn't say, rather) off the mic which has left people scratching their heads. The Kelis situation, shit. I'm STILL trippin' over the numbers that surfaced after she announced her and Nasir's marriage was over. BUT, as a lover of the culture, one question that's always been more pertenant to me was [...]
" Nihilists! Fuck me. I mean, say what you like about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude, at least it's an ethos." - Walter, The Big Lebowski A friend of a friend swayed side to side in a football tailgate haze a couple weeks back. Beer and cigarette smoke fumed from his pores. He took a sip of Miller Lite and pawed at his freshly grown porn-stache and scruff. "I don't trust a man who can't grow one," he said. "Matter fact, I don't trust anyone who's born after the Berlin wall [...]
You heard it here first, folks. Mayer Hawthorne's A Strange Arrangement is the best album of the year, with Raekwon's Only Built for Cuban Linx II a close second. What makes the album so dope is that while his sound is "retro," it definitely feels like you're listening to something brand new. The album comes out today, so be sure to pick it up. You can preview it at AMAZON . Read his full bio HERE . Related posts: Mayer Hawthone and [...]
Having heard the leaks from the Blueprint 3, Raekwon's Only Built for Cuban Linx II completely blows it out of the war. Raekwon is hungry, and apparently Jay-Z is stuffed after dealing with all of Beyonce's Jelly. DOWNLOAD: Raekwon "Broken Safety" via: 2dopeboyz Related posts: Download - Raekwon feat.

The seasons are about the change & the weather will get cooler. But isn't September heating up quite nicely? Including this unit of Kelvin from The Chef and good Dr. Dre. I don't think there's been a complaint from this album yet. Download - Raekwon Feat. Lyfe Jennings - "Catalina" (Produced by Dr.Dre) (Clean) Props to Mr. X Previously Posted - Raekwon Feat. Cappadonna & Ghostface Killah - "10 Bricks"
It's like Ironman all over again when these three get together. Add in a little Dilla in the pot ( again! ), mix, stir in the Ragu, and you have vintage new Wu. Cuban Linx Pt. II will be packaged, sealed and delivered September 8th. And yes you dumb f*ck, there's coke. Download - Raekwon Feat.

I'm not really sure if these rappers or their promo teams know how to "use" the internet because this is the shortest teaser ever. From what I can garner, the video for "House Of Flying Danngers" will feature the Wu-brethren Inspectah Deck, Ghostface Killah & Method Man (as animation or actual appearances, I dunno) and the song's production style is courtesy of J Dilla.

Any opportunity I have to link back to this blaze of glory, I'm all for it. Il Nastro Viola Due = 9.08.09 Previously Posted - Raekwon Feat. Inspectah Deck, Ghostface Killah & Method Man - "House Of Flying Daggers"
Oh man. This song is serious. Makes me wanna throw on the industrial brown Carhart jacket and mean mug some mom's pushing jogging strollers. House of Flying Daggers comes from Raekwon's highly-anticipated album Only Built for Cuban Linx II which releases September 8.

c The only thing better than Only Built For Cuban Linx II at this point is an official warm-up and that's exactly what Brother Rae and DJ Absolut has bestowed upon us. With guest appearances by Busta Rhymes, Noreaga, Joell Ortiz and The Game (among several others), Blood On Chef's Apron is assembled like an album. Most likely there will be even more heatrocks to pass out come this August when the wait is finally over . In the meantime... [...]
The song we've known as "Wu Oh" for months is now titled "New Wu" and the video has finally blessed us. You could call this joint "Spaghetti & Ketchup" and it'll still be a heatrock, so throw your W's up and get ready since we all know the wait is finally over .

Most of the Wu-Tang Clan's notable members have been keeping the internet buzzing already in 2009, first with Raekwon steadily leaking various freestyles and tracks from Only Built For Cuban Linx II and now with Ghostface Killah putting this new track out on the internet at the end of last week called "Message From Ghostface". The song is an ode to battered and abused women and definitely preaches some nice values. I definitely didn't expect Ghost to go after Chris Brown at the end of the track though, telling Rihanna directly that he's on that "Young Boy Shit," which I'd [...]
