Album been out for a hot minute. Video is different and the song makes it work



La Coka Nostra - Cousin of Death

LONG A WAITED

Well it was only nessecary to use this post as a little explainnation or say to shed a little light on this weeks record release of the much antisappeated sequel to Raekwon's Only built for Cuban linx.

History- Only built for Cuban linx pt. 1
August 1, 1995 the album only built for cuban linx was released on Loud/RCA. At this time the Wu-Tang was dropping a run of ground breaking solo albums that change the game of hip hop. Only Built for Cuban Linx was like no other, with solid production (all RZA produced tracks) and a long list of Wu members on each and every track. The album was well recieved as it went platinum not long after the realease and ended up No. 4 on the billboard 200. I think probably a year later (or so) the idea of a sequel was born.

Note- Thought's of a sequel
First and for most i am all for the idea and release of the sequel. But to everyone who would like to compare the two albums and say "its not as good as the first one."
I don't think he could have even come close to a repeat of the original! For the strong feeling of you can never repeat history. A lot of group make a huge first record and can not repeat of even come close. This happened many times before 1995 and many times after. (Ex. Souls of Mischief, 93 'til Infinity . Pharcyde, Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde, Snoop Dogg, Doggystyle , ODB, Return to the 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version , GZA, Liquid Swords, Goodie Mobb, Soul Food...... just to name a few.) So dont go buy the album thinking its 1995 and u gonna here the same music. Think about it ....? Its almost 2010!!!!!!!!!!

Thought's on the sequel!
It's like a breath of fresh air. I'll give him credit on the list of produces and the list of the people blessed to be a part of the sequel. Yeah it could have been better. He could have used the RZA for all production but times have changed. Quite possibly the best track on the album was produced by Necro. The Beanie track has a lot of heart to it, and the Jada track is nice. Oh and Meth made a HUGE come back and reminds people of what he's capable of.
But all around well done!!!!!!

Now dont be a CHEAP FUCK and go BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
