The Chef lets you in on the trials and tribulations surrounding the long awaited, often delayed new album, Only Built For Cuban Linx 2. Rae also admits he made this album for the people, because that’s what they asked for.
Do yourself (and hip hop) a favor and cop OB4CL2 this Tuesday (September 8th).
Hope this sells respectively in todays hard market.
Please Rae don’t get on autotune the album is mad dope
cosign david jefferis!
IMO, OB4CL2 was amazingly good. i love the album all the way through, met my expectations.
I’m coppin’ that OB4CL2 without a shadow of a doubt… It may not be as good as the 1st one but this is what real hip hop heads need…
this is what i’ve been waiting for, the album is incredibly good
im coppin
It will sell!
Instead of coppin that Blueprint nonsense everyone should cop 2 OB4CL2s.
Churrrch@ Double Up
I found myself hearing OB4CL2 more than BP3..IMO OB4CL2 is a better album than BP3, how Jay after making DOA is using Autotune in “reminder” and “haterz”!! WTF Jay?….Timbo fucked up BP3. Next time call Just Blaze man
Yeah I’m coppin, and BP3 is a straight download…
It’s about time Rae. We been fiending for this album like cook food lol. Definitely copping day one.
For all the flack Jay-Z has gotten on his album,I’m surprised more people aren’t sayin’ some shit about Rae’s.
It’s a fuckin album FULL OF SIDE ARTIST AND SKITS.
Almost every fuckin song has a front loaded intro that usually takes up a minute of the song before Raekwon even spits a verse.
Thats even if he’s the first cat on the mic.
Don’t believe me?
Let me break it down…

This album seems almost tantamount to a rip off
But I’ll give him apass on that ’cause when he doesspit, his shit is fire.
But still…
come on with the lazy ass bullshit of not being able to carry your own record
^^Rae’s guests, production, his own rhymin, is all good – you cant say the same about Jay-Z
THE INVISIBLE must have forgot what the original OB4CL looked like with guest spots and what not. If you knew anything about it, you would know its a small caliber Wu-Tang album.
Also, this one has a lot less skits then the first one. smh @ ppl
You forgot Sonny’s Missing…. That shit is ill too…
Rae’s side artists > Jay’s side artists… Thought we left the hate in ’08…..
“…you would know its a small caliber Wu-Tang album…
Why the fuck would I “know” an album, listed as a solo joint, is actually a collabo?
Yes, his original OB4CL” had guest spots (I bought the original, on vinyl, when it first came out)…but that was when the Wu was doin’ big things.
And he got a pass because it was on some original story mode caliber shit.
It’s a new day.
Shits free if I want it.Give me a reason to buy it besides all your guest stars.
And you’re not really comparing features on Jay’s to Rae’s are u Cage?
Inspector Deck,Master Killa or Rza is better than who…Kanye, Jeezy…J.Cole??
Nigga stop that.
I don’t give a flyin’ fuck who’s featured on a artists record.
I cop an album because I want to hear an album BY THE ARTIST!!
I guess some of you just like to ride.
^^ Look at the cats you chose…I was thinkin more like Jada, SP, Ghost, and Beans…. Kanye ripped it on a song I dont care for, J. Cole is dope and jeezy is tolerable but that’s about it… Seems like you’re one a the folks that like to ride, to each their own though… Hope they both do good #’s
I chose those 3 off of Jay’s against 3 of Rae’s because first, I feel Raekwon had too many people to list and second, those 3 on Rae’s album could’ve stayed the fuck off.
The guest I pointed out on Jay’s where the ones who actually contributed verses on the album.I didnt include Cudi, Hudson, Keyes, Swizz, Steel or Drake because they just supplied the hooks.
And the end of the day, Raekwon I feel did not hand in a solo album but rather a “Wu – Tang and Friends” complilation.
a lot of guest on rae album, like the first and i like that rea album is like a movie. this album is serious i’don’t download this album i wait the 8 sept.
i think hip hop need this album right now !
I already have a complete copy of ob4cl 2 and i will be copping on 090809.
IF YOU DON’T BUY THIS ALBUM, YOU DON’T BUY ANOTHER ALBUM WITH THIS QUALITY AND HONESTY FOR A LONG TIME.
SUPPORT THAT AND MOVE YOUR ASS OF YOUR CHAIR AND GO TO THE STORE IT’S TO EASY TO DOWNLOAD AND IT’S MORE DIFFICULT TO DO A ALBUM LIKE THIS NOWADAYS
LET’S GO
it’s funny how rae’s new album is what the fans demanded & ghost’s new album is exactly what he wanted to do.
