I have no words for how bangin' this is. The true and living GOD of Hip-Hop has returned in the flesh.
This is the epitome of Hip-Hop. Bangin' beat, Ill lyrics (and dropping jewels too!!), fresh samples, and even with scratches!!
If this song was a Holy Scripture, I would be converted, straight up. Bear witness.

Damn I forgot how good fresh aired smelled.
Sunny you buggin on this right here. This shit is str8 flavaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...
This how Ra should have came on his last 2 lps. Classic flow with a few sweet updates and he sound younger. It was worth the wait. I hope the entire lp is like this.
PEACE TO THE GOD!!!

How come?? its too fancy sounds industry ready Rah is approaching the mic and beat thinking about record sales - he is not approaching it thinking move the crowd - and its obvious there is no power in it - the beat is meh - nothing special Wow, you think he made this with the industry and record sales in mind? With lyrics talking about "Farrakhan", and how he's God? I don't know how many people are gonna buy that, and I don't know how many record labels are even gonna try to market it. I agree with LONG on this.... This is what Rakim's last 2 albums should have sounded like. In fact, those 2 albums fit more of your description here, than this one song. I truly hope his new album sounds like this... It appears that he has come to his senses, and realized that Hip-Hop needs a Renaissance.... If so, then who better to lead it, than one of the greatest Pioneers of this culture. PEACE |
