I guess you already know this shit but this is off the website:

Off the back of the new Raekwon album - Built For Cuban Linx 2, Wu-Tang Clan’s hottest MC hits Australia for the first time solo and ready to deliver all his Wu-Tang classics!

In 1994, Raekwon signed a solo deal with Loud Records and released his debut single Heaven & Hell for the soundtrack to the movie Fresh. His first solo LP, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx…, was released in 1995 to rave reviews, though not to as much commercial success as fellow Wu-Tang member Method Man’s Tical.

Now 15 years on in December 2009, major hip hop site HipHopDx released their 2009 HipHopDx Awards. Raekwon’s fourth studio album and latest effort Only Built For Cuban Linx…Pt. II was chosen as Album of the Year, described as ‘…the Hip Hop equivalent to The Godfather 2, with Rae as revitalized as Marlon was…’ and Raekwon himself picked as Best Emcee of 2009 (fellow New Yorker Nas had won in 2008). The DX staff justified this pick with this description of Raekwon’s career in 2009.

‘Raekwon brought it back to lyrical, dope rap. He released an album that spoke to teens, twenty-somethings, thirty-somethings, and beyond. Without compromising, the Chef made an edgy Hip Hop record that refused to bastardize the catalog he laid down 15 years ago. On top of that, Rae (along with Ghostface) was a go-to for numerous rappers making albums, ranging from the Playaz Circle to Jadakiss to BK One.’
