Hes suing Def Jam:

"The legendary duo of Eric B. & Rakim filed a lawsuit Wednesday (January 14) in New York against Russell Simmons, Lyor Cohen, Island Records, Def Jam Records, Universal Music Enterprises and others for a yet-to-be-determined amount of money, alleging they were never paid royalties from their classic 1987 LP, Paid in Full.

The lawsuit calls for the books to be opened and damages awarded based on accounting and sales of Paid in Full and the singles "Eric B. Is President" and "My Melody."


new album should be decent though...any chance an Em n' Rakim collab is on it, there were pics of them in the studio together.

Rakim is a descent rapper, but yes i'm lookin forward too this album, but don't blame dre for a late come-out. Dre makes shit hot and even if it takes him awhile, he's just makin sure that it's dope :)

^DRE ISN'T Producing anything..Thats why the album hasn't dropped, because it had to be reworked.
Im looking forward to this, and I doubt Em will be on the album. I hope he isn't.

Decent? dude u are retarded Rakim is tha shit. And no Dre don't make shit hot he gets other producers to make it hot then he puts his name on it. Notice now he got Hi-Tek put 10 on his beats begin to slow down and people praise him 4 "changing his sound" no Em won't be on it.

No the reason Ra left aftermath is cuz dre kept puting him in the booth wit 2nd rate producers and shit, thats dissrespectfull, how u gon put Rakim a fuckin legend in the studio wit 2nd rate producers and stall his shit for some 50 cent bullshit
And i cant fuckin belive u called Rakim a decent rapper, learn yo shit man
Ra took the whole game from a nursery rhyme sing along shit to real lyricism
and that was in the late 80's most rappers cant rhyme like that today

lol, word to that.

He's got a point you know. Even now rakim's old stuff sounds great. Does nebody know if his album's actually coming out or what? cos with him leaving aftermath, are they still gonna drop it, or have they given up so they can release a comparatively weak 50 cent album or soemthing similar (in comparison to anthing rakim's capable of making neway...)?

~LyRiCaL-JeZuS~ 01-15-04 05:12 PM

Id rather listen to the worst Rakim songs that he threw away then any 50 cent album.
50 cent is a clone and is doing what hundreds have done befo, Rakim is one of a kind
