Raekwon Talks Nas, ‘Verbal Intercourse 2’

One_Yaself_Hater · 05-19-2009, 10:34 PM

As excitement builds over the verified August release of Only Built for Cuban Linx II, Raekwon is giving more details on the anticipated LP’s confirmed tracks.

While the teaser sequel track “Criminology 2” was well-received, fans have continually questioned whether there would be a re-up of the original album’s most lyrical track, “Verbal Intercourse.”

Nas, whose beginning verse is celebrated as one of the best of his illustrious career, has been in talks with Raekwon to bring back his renowned lyricism before the final tracklist is completed.

The Chef confirmed the talks exclusively with AllHipHop.com, and emphasized the importance of continuing the artistic bond he shares with many of his New York contemporaries.

“These are my dudes from back in the day, like Mobb Deep, Nas, Fat Joe, and Big Pun, God bless the dead,” Raekwon told AllHipHop.com. “You never know what’s going to happen. Rae’s still got to move on as a general.”

Rae admitted catching up with Nas has been difficult, especially in lieu of the recent events in the Queensbridge legend’s life.

Nas is finalizing a risky but ambitious LP with Reggae star Damian Marley, and facing the emotional strain of preparing for the birth of his second child while handling a high-profile divorce.

Still, Raekwon remains optimistic that Nas will make good on his promise.

“Nas said he’s gonna be on the album,” the Chef stated. “We’re still working on catching him. But if it’s not 'Verbal Intercourse 2,' we’ll come up with some new chemistry.”

Raekwon’s highly anticipated Only Built for Cuban Linx II is set to drop on August 11 through EMI/Ice Water Records.

The LP features production from The RZA, Dr. Dre, Marley Marl, Erick Sermon, and J Dilla.

I think Rae needed to do this album years ago, I think Rae is one of the best man, was such a huge Wu fan back in the late 90's, that is still an album I bump alot, one of the best albums, and getting Nas on part 2, dam, question is, will Nas do it and what if he doesnt live up to the hype? Doesnt outdo the first one? anyway, its just a shame that the economy is so fucked and Rae really isnt cared about anymore these days, though I still will be copping that album and hardcore fans will too, but it wont get the love and support it should get, but fuck it, its a sketchy thing to drop a part two too a classic album, but this is one of them albums hip hop needs.

if Nas could get together with Rae and make Verbal Intercourse 2, that'd be damn hot. lyrics on the track are amazing so they'd have to put in a lot of effort to 1-up it
