In a snippet from an interview with XXL, a riled up Raekwon had some interesting things to say: “It’s like in the Vibe magazine, how the **** y’all niggas gonna give me two [stars]? How the **** y’all gonna give me two [stars] and then give [more] to all these country mutha****as, who I feel really don’t get busy like that. That’s not saying that I don’t got a lot of respect for country niggas, ’cause I do got a lot of respect for country niggas, but that **** is bull****, man. Niggas is classifying that **** as hip-hop? Get the **** outta here, man. I ain’t going for that, man. And I ain’t stooping myself down to another level to be some **** that I’m not. And I ain’t got nothing against nobody in the South. This ain’t me going at the South, ’cause I was the first nigga to give OutKast and them niggas a mutha****in’ shot in New York. If you really wanna go back and check your history, at who helped mutha****as’ careers, I was the one that gave Nas his ****in’ shot. Me and my family. We were the dudes that gave all these niggas a shot…Kanye West, all these niggas, and now mutha****as act like they don’t got to pay homage? We gon’ make y’all pay homage with this record.”

is he seriouse? I never met anyone in my life thats actually bouaght his shit. but Id be mad too if I only got 2 stars for an album. but he shouldn't talk shit bout south niggas just cuz they making bread. u grew up were u grew up which means if u in the south....u jamin to south shit...if up north...u jamming to north shit...well actuall u probably still jamming to south shit but anyway...he needs to switch his style. cus if u aint making money but and ur shit aint working...then why the fuck u out here waisting the time and money of all the people around u who wanna see u succeed? thats like spitting in they faces not just the fans who expect good quality shit from u. times change and so do styles. he needs to wake up.

thanks for posting this. he's too aragant for his possition in rap. he aint making Kanye's beats for em and he sure ass hell aint writing nas's rymes for em so he need to relax and make his shit work and stop trying to draw neggative attencion to himself...we all here to make that bread.

i bought his record only biult for cuban linx
but i agree wit him if it wasnt for verbal intercourse nas wouldnt be where he is
cause look ILLmatic sold 300,000 then as it was written sold 2.2 millon

you have ANY idea how many ppl jacked their style ??? get tha fuck out..and RAEKWON was like...one of the only ppl to feature w outkast back in the day b4 they were superstars...I remember it well...he's O.G status in the rap game bro... fuck them kids, they need to step the fuck back

"I never met anyone in my life thats actually bouaght his shit"

dude...you can't even spell bought.....so your either 12...and you were to young for Wu-tang when they were big...or....your just a dumbass w bad taste in music...but by saying shit like

"he needs to switch his style. cus if u aint making money but and ur shit aint working..."

it makes that obvious

FUCK THAT.....why is everything always about $$ ??? he's a real MC that don't switch priorities to suit the masses of rich fags that listen to "hip hop" today...

....his "possition" in rap..wtf.......

okay u got ur oppinions...but while lockness and the drunken monks is at home wit a pen and pad carefully jotting down every word Raekwon says like, "oh, that niggas dope", both ya girl friends is out at the club wit a nigga like me dancing dirty to some south shit. and I got 3 wu tang cd's. and yes...he may have made an old ass track with outkast...but how many units did that shit sell compared to the shit they recently made(not the speakerboxx/love below shit, that shit was str8 garbage)

I should appologize for the change his style shit. I worded that wrong. but if it aint about money then why is he so pissed of for getting a bad reveiw if he does it for the love of hip hop. if he wasn't about the money like u put it, then it wouldn't matter as long as the fans are into it. fuck it, the CD should be for damn near free then right. face, when u got a family...things u do for as much fun and love u got for it, it will become about money so they can be comfterbly taken care of. If u like his shit...its kewl, we all listen to different shit...I prefer method man and redmans style and dont like ghost face, Rza, Gza but they still str8. it aint about oh, hes wak or i put him/her/them on the map. wat the fuck does he want all these niggaz he claiming to do for him if he aint holding his own in sales? and stop trying to diss me or the south....that shits too childish for the forum. lets keep it clean and have a str8 debate.

you are so dum its that they dont give him props and and he had one bad album that didnt sell and yes the piont is to sell records but hiphop is also an art form thats something your backstreet boy and Nsync cock loving ass forgot
raekwon is totaly in the right for sayin what he said

__________________

i was just listening to raekwon's "OBFCL" album and yes, he did put NAs onto shyt before he was a "known" image... i had forgotten all about that shyt.... and for kats who don't really deal with outsiders like that I can see where he's coming from... he ain't say shyt about money so i don't know where you got that from... he was talking about the respect.... kats is acting like Rae don't go hard... 2 stars?... granted ... that's that one dudes opinion... but if you ask the average kat who actually listens to lyrics and breaks shyt down, you'll see he deserves more credit than what he gets..."only built" equals wu-tang's second biggest selling album next to the first wu-tang collabo album... that dude made a mark in hip-hop history and that fact can't be denied... especially by some dude in a magazine who prolly never heard the album cuz he was too young at da time and "ma-dukes" wouldn't cop it for him...

i listen to south shit... north ... west... mid west... canada... england... even japan...i gives a shyt where dudes is from... if you got skillz i gots love for a nukka... with that said... omma stay true to MY roots and rep that NY shyt to da fullest...

and fuck changing to suit other kats... that's wus wrong with da game now... too many kats sounding alike to "suit" muhfuggaz! i ain't never gon try and fit in... either ya like my shyt or ya don't... but at the end of the day, you WILL respect me... werd

I give him his props. but I dont LISTEN to his MUSIC at ALL. so that automatically makes me wak. no. He gets his respect from other rappers. he should not lash out at them for a review he got from a magazine that no real nigga reads. Vibe is retarted. I havent red nore seen anything with any of the rappers that he mentioned dissing him or even remotely taking away from the respect that he has earned from them. but still...for him to say that dirty south should not be labeled as hip hop...is like him saying that music itself aint hip hop. if its not rap or hip hop then wat the fuck is it...classical? nigga please...thats some hoe shit right there. I listen to niggas like Canibus, Talib Kwali, and others along that range that aint making millions of dollers but work twice as hard. I understand the artform and passion and hard work that is put into it. but not every one is going to like...and lets face it...when majority rules....club shit will always sell more becouse its more radio friendly...
and fuck if I care about spelling every word right. atleast Im actually saying something...all u saying is...oh ur 12 years old and ur stupid...u aint contributing at all so get of me and get on the subject. respect to Reakwon for helping them niggas out and its too bad his review whent down like that but dont take ur hate out on the south for some shit that aint our fault.1

I agree wit I.G. atleast 85%. thats true shit.

i think he was talking more in lines of shyt like laffy taffy... that's gimmick rap and it's sumn most northern emcees see as gimmicky... we (for the most part) try to keep shyt straight up street like we'ven been doing it forever... it's cool to have fun in hip-hop.. but when you start raping the culture there's a problem... love to da south but some of that shyt baffles me
