I'm actually surprised it took this long (and Raekwon) before someone reappropriated Jay-Z's "Brooklyn (Go Hard)" to be about their home burrough. "Staten (Go Hard)" finds Raekwon representing Staten Island and talking up Wu-Tang Clan's contribution to music instead. I'm not sure who the woman is on the final verse and on the hook, but if she's not Santigold, she's as good as a Santigold stand-in gets.

Raekwon is still promising Only Built for Cuban Linx II will out in 2009, but that is still up in the air. [OnSmash]
