Why did Busta Rhymes debut album take so long to drop?

He had to make sure it was raw

I love that record. "There's only 5 years left!"

This. Still bop my head all crazy and foolish like they were doing in the whip when I hear the first few bars of that track and when Busta yells out cheesin' "like my name was SEARCH WARRANT!!!"

Didn't feel that long in real time. I remember me and my nikkas getting buck to "Everything remains raw" in my dorm room at Morehouse freshman year. Memories that will never fade. We tore that bytch up.

I remember he said his transition to becoming a solo artist was rough.

This is why I always say, you can't rank group rappers on solo lists until they prove themselves.

LOTNS. He was still in the group until only a couple years before the solo dropped.

I guess because he was leaving his group and then had to establish himself as a solo artist mostly on features. The gap was only 3 years. The Leaders of the New School dropped two LP's. One in 91 and one in 93. Busta's debut dropped 3 years later. In that three years Busta mostly did features and remixes like "Flava in Ya Ear".

The Leaders of the New School 2nd album dropped in October of 1993.


They didn't break up until 1994. It actually didn't take that long. He had to record his solo album.
The first single "Everything Remains Raw" dropped in February 1996.

The album was out in jan 96.
The single for ereything remains raw was out wau before feb 1996.
Like for dumb long before the album dropped In jan 96.

That internet shyt be wrong as hell.

Like redman, dr dre and common all debuted and dropped october 5 1992.
Yet it says some other shyt online.
