good guest for him

Masta Kills
Meth
U God
Ghost
Nas
Wayne (this isnt as unlikely as some will fear, they have featured on a few tracks together over the last couple years, and Wayne is on record as being a Cuban Linx and Wu Tang fan, it would also probably add 20,000 to sales)

its also likely Fat Joe and Busta will appear as they are long time close friends with rae. I loved that verse Bus did on the q-tip track shit was intenese alot better than some of the other recnt stuff hes done, Fat Joe has also done some tracks with Raekwon in recent years

sweeet fucking lord!!! This shit is insane!!!! Im amped all over again!!

His fanbase hates lil wanye so it'll also take away 10,000 sales.

also features that aren't on your single dont add sales anymore.
they do add attention though but thats internet attention so doing it on mixtapes is all you need.
so no need featuring ppl for sales, just get a nasty single or 2.

features wise i'd go for up-and-coming rappers but im not gonna start suggesting shit cause i'll fall into the trap of expecting it and being dissappointed if he doesn't reach and imaginary bar or expectation based on nothing but stanhood and excessive masterbation.

WOW putting Lil Wayne on CL2 thats an interesting idea...

U know Wayne & Rae have callabo'd a bunch of times and Lil Wayne would definitely do it.

That would be a pretty easy way for Rae to actaully make a real impact on the mainstream.

Then again it would mean ruining the Cuban Linx legacy by having that homo on your album

**SL33** · 02-01-2009, 03:57 PM

i wouldn't be surprised :

lol, but anyway he needs mainstream impact with song/video, and wu-tang members cannot do that.

**oDoUoSoKo** · 02-01-2009, 03:57 PM

shit sounds crazy

**Ghost In The 'Lac** · 02-01-2009, 03:59 PM

LOL!

Rae doesnt have 10,000 fans to take away sales. Real Raekwon fans are in their 30's, they left him a LONG time ago...so therefore he has nothing to loose

he needs to worry more about gaining fans than losing them at this point

**sdeblasi** · 02-01-2009, 04:00 PM

i hope every general has at least one verse on this album and i wll be happy i dont care about any other guests

and tsa and ghostlaced just fuckin get along and enjoy this shit for a second

THIS IS A HOLIDAY

exactly. He doesn't need to worry about gaining fans, this is the flaw in wu

forever sold 8 million. considering deaths and new wu fans there should still be a sold 6 million ppl that would fuck with wu, if it was wu.

adding internet factors thats 2 millionish. numbers based on nothing but assumption tho

wu keeps trying to gain new fans and doesn't understand their base is strong enough and they need to energize the base first before taking a leap of faith at new fans cause base wu fans have gone so long with wu reaching too hard that they gave up cause their tastes and unusually hatred for other rappers was rubbed the wrong way.

Rae needs to come with straight wu shit. common is going gold and plat making straight common shit cause he pleases his base first.
