Only Built 4 Cuban Linx 2

Release Date: August 11, 2009
Label: Aftermath

Abstract

It's hard to find a more anticipated album than Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II. Originally set for a release in 2007, the album slogged through industry hurdles for years, and the hardships along the way have become near-mythic: a snub by Dr. Dre, contract woes, a year-long feud with RZA, label pressure, etc. Raekwon's fourth solo album is the follow up to 1995's legendary Only Built 4 Cuban Linx. In his words, "People been wanting this record for the last 10 years, so I gotta make sure that this shit is bulletproof." The number of those involved on the production end swelled to include mastermind RZA, posthumous J Dilla, Dr. Dre, and DJ Scratch. Even more names round out the guest appearances, including Pete Rock, The Game, Method Man, GZA, Inspectah Deck, and Ghostface Killa.
