Tracklist For Rakim New Album

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

Why so many guest verses ?

It's a different era...he used to be the Microphone Soloist with 0 features

 

[-DMP-]

In for the Nip feature

 

[⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐]

This may be him focusing on production and his effort to gain the public consciousness's awareness that he had a large part in the production of the Eric B & Rakin albums

Why does the cover say "Fully produced by & featuring Rakim" instead of "Fully produced by & starring Rakim"?


Digipak vs Jewel case. What do y'all think is the better packaging?

 

[itsyoung!!]

over/under 10k sales

Only Rakim could get 3 dead rappers to be on his album from beyond the grave

prodigy, DMX, fred the godson, nipsey 4 dead rappers

 

[Peabo Bryson]

Sadly, the Prodigy, DMX, Fred The Godson and Nipsey verses are just the same acapellas that M80 / Anno Domini have been "selling" in those licensing packs. Hundreds of unknown amateur rappers have released songs through DistroKid with these same verses. This album is a forced/put-together abomination and for sure will not be a great mark on Rakim's legacy.

Thats the gawd MC 4 ya

Damn I didn't even see his name, RIP

Just saw Planet Asia is on here too...so many heavy hitters

 

[THE 101]

My prediction of it being an album of other rappers going in over Rakim beats might actually be true

This might be worse than Andre 3000 announcing his flute album

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Any production credits already ?

 

[Barney Rubble]

@spliz Knows Ra's people and said this is more about showcasing Ra's production skills and he's not rapping on every song.

 

[Peabo Bryson]

So this is a clusterfukk compilation album with other MCs doing tracks over Rakim's beats and he drops a handful of verses throughout? Yeah. Sounds like a real classic.

It's probably an album like Roc Marci's: Marci Beaucoup. Showing his production side more.

 

[Why-Fi]

i like the single, the beat is hard

If this is true and the verses turn out to be recycled, then Rakim needs to face full backlash. No excuses, no kid gloves.

If Rakim wants to stain his legacy, he should get what he's asking for. You really gon sell limited-edition physical units and it's some trash? Nah, we not gon let you off like that.
