Dear God Don’t Let This Be Real: Yung Berg ft. Raekwon “You Are” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 02/07/12 | Filed under Top Stories, Raekwon, Yung Berg

I don't want to be one of these fans who tries to tell a legend what they can and can't do. If you deliver an album, or albums, that I'll be listening to until the day I die the least I can do in return is not question your every move. Listen and download...

There’s “No Pretending” With 9th Wonder, Raekwon & Big Remo (Listen & Download)

Posted by Danielle Harling on 09/07/11 | Filed under Top Stories, Downloads, Raekwon, 9th Wonder

Another day, another leak off of 9th Wonder's upcoming project "The Wonder Years." This latest leak is titled "No Pretending" and features Raekwon and North Carolina rapper Big Remo. You really can't go wrong with the combination of 9th Wonder's stellar production and on point lyricism from both Rae and Remo. That being said "No Pretending" is yet another dope track off of "The Wonder Years." Listen and download...

JD Era & Raekwon Are Looking For Their “Pay Day 2” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Danielle Harling on 09/01/11 | Filed under Downloads, Raekwon, JD Era

It's no easy feat appearing on a track with Wu-Tang vet Raekwon especially if you're not the most well-known of artists, but rapper JD Era does a pretty decent job of keeping up with one of Hip-Hop's greats on his track "Pay Day 2." Smaz provides the production for "Pay Day 2" which works well around both JD Era and Raekwon's verses. Listen and download...

White German Girls Turned Raekwon on to Nas & More Crazy Stories (Video)

As he and Ghostface spend the Rock the Bells tour doing his classic "OB4CL" Raekwon sat down to talk about how his classic solo album came about. Like, for example, that a couple white German girls introduced him to Nas. And the best part? He tells the story like it's the most natural thing in the world. God bless the Chef. See more...

Nas & Raekwon Get Their “Rich & Black” On In Oslo, Norway (Video)

With help from L-R-G, Nas and Raekwon have finally released the visuals for their "Shaolin Vs. Wu-Tang" track "Rich & Black." Since this is such a hot song I was hoping for something that consisted of more than just a miniature backstage performance and random concert footage. Regardless it's still a dope video and shout out to Raekwon's hat and scarf set. See more...

Rapsody & Raekwon: Pressure Makes “Black Diamonds” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 06/20/11 | Filed under Downloads, Raekwon, Rapsody

While I know RefinedHype Nation isn't as sickened by co-sign syndrome as the rest of the interwebs, it never hurts to have a hip-hop legend on your record. So far everyone who's been skimming by my claims that 9th Wonder protege Rapsody is one the most emcees rhyming now, how about a little Raekwon guest verse? Listen and download...

I Find This Raekwon “Butter Knives” Video Most Enjoyable

The good people at LRG team up with The Chef to provide some visuals to his "Butter Knives" cut, and take us on a tour of the 185 Parkhill Projects, Staten Island, NY. Which is very considerate of them, because I always wanted to see the spots Raekwon rhymes about, but don't really want to actually go there. See more...

Classic Album: Raekwon’s “Only Built 4 Cuban Linx” (Review & Video)

Posted by Matt Juss on 03/14/11 | Filed under Top Stories, Features, Raekwon, Classic Albums

Raekwon's debut album "Only Built 4 Cuban Linx..." was released in 1995 to great critical acclaim and is considered one of the most creative and inventive hip-hop albums out there. The album is structured in a cinematic style and features Wu-Tang members Ghostface Killah as the "guest-star," and producer RZA as the "director."

Raekwon & Nas Verbally F**k Again, Drop “Rich & Black” (Listen & Download)

If you got the joke in that headline off the bat you and I are on the are friends. And if you didn't no worries, here comes the explanation: A full 17 years (yep, 17 years, feel old yet?) after Raekwon and Nas first linked up to record "Verbal Intercourse", off Raek's classic "Only Built 4 Cuban Linx" album, the legendary emcees have re-uped for new record "Rich & Black".

Raekwon, Rick Ross & Ghostface Killah Sip on Some “Molasses” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 02/23/11 | Filed under Downloads, Rick Ross, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Wu Tang Clan

I was going to start off this post with some sort of "that title's actually a reference to the rappers involved running speed" but I have too much respect for the hip-hop legends (and Rick Ross) involved to do something so corny. Instead let's just get right into the new music that is Raekwon, Ricky Rozay and Ghostface Killah spitting over "Molasses". Listen and download...
