Members of Wu-Tang have perfected delivering gritty street verses over classic soul and R&B samples. In Raekwon’s latest track he freestyles over the Gladys Knight & The Pips track “Neither One Of Us” and once again it’s a perfect fit.
Somehow rhyming about going to kill your enemies works over the smoothed out joint (“My worst cat will blow you in the church black / The day that we felt we got jerked / We came with two guns and three bats).
“Neither One of Us” will be featured on the Lost Jewelry EP that drops on January 8. Raekwon is also expected to release a new studio album in 2013.
