Running neck and neck with Ghostface as the most consistent member of the mighty Wu-Tang Clan, Raekwon has been treating fans to some amazing music recently, especially the universally loved, long-awaited Only Built 4 Cuban Linx 2. On Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang, he continues the trend, unleashing felonious lyrical assaults over sinister production sprinkled with old school kung fu flick samples. Although the RZA was not involved in this project, Rae wisely chooses beats that closely mimic the Abbott's original blueprint, enlisting Scram Jones, Evidence, Alchemist, and Erick Sermon, among others. Fellow Clansmen Meth, Ghost, and Deck all appear, as do Nas, Busta Rhymes, Rick Ross, Black Thought, and Jim Jones. If you're a longtime fan of WTC, this will be right up your alley, check out "From the Hills," "Rich and Black," "Sliver Rings," and "Snake Pond."
