Rakim is easily one of my fave MC’s ever.
For his return to hip hop in 1997, Rakim released The 18th Letter, his first solo album. It wasn’t groundbreaking, but it was good overall with some tightly produced tracks by some of the best (Clark Kent, Premier).
‘Guess Who’s Back’ is definitely one of the best tracks off the LP.
And check out the sample from Bob James:
Curren$y X Beck X Dazed and Confused

This new Curren$y track, Newer Pollution, is tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!! Not only does it sample Beck’s The New Pollution but it’s got a classic Dazed and Confused quote mixed in there as well.
Lettuce thank his Twitter for this solid, solid release.
Meg Kenny is new at this. She has a Tumblr that she’s not so new at.
