OB4CL 2 Success Brings Raekwon To Tearz
Friday, September 18 2009 6:14 PM EST | Posted by: B.Dot | Posted in: Blog, Newsstand StanYou couldn’t see it coming down his eyes, but Rae says the success of Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II‘s made him cry.
“I was shocked,” says Raekwon, who released the project on his Ice H20 label through EMI. “My fans really stuck up for me in a way they never have before. It was one of those joyful, teary moments.”
Keeping up the momentum, his single “Catalina” is also getting serviced on your FM dial. *Throws up W*
Props: Billboard





Man, miss me with the fake Jay and B quotes already. Headlines. Some of you sites will do anything for attention and traffic. You really believed B would speak to Star magazine? Tuck your tabloid in. And why would Hov need to write a letter to his daughter? Bitch please. He wrote a song! It's called "Glory" and it's pretty fuckin' revealing. He went on the record (double entendre) but you still don't get it. You may hear baby Blue's first cries but no you don't know her height, weight or what she looks like. And no you ain't gettin' a flick, fool. Can new parents get some privacy? Even if they are celebrities. Sheesh! Who raised you animals? Party at the 40/40. Paps outside. Rushin' the velvet rope. Don't trip over your integrity.
Put us here if you like. The RR store stays open 24/7. SOPA? Yeah we Showcase Our Product Always. And we're gonna continue straight ahead til somebody up there turns out the lights. Start from scratch? I'm not afraid.
he done really good
word!
Good for Rae…Clap for HIM!…Dope album! Although its longer (# of songs speaking), in my humble opinion its better than BP3..and I like BP3! OB4CL2 is a rare gem in “TODAY’S” hip-hop climate.
I am a Rae fan, but success. I saw the billboard numbers, he did 65,000 his first week. That is not a success. That is horrible, even during these times. Jay-z sold 8 times more than him, come on people.

Lol. u got a point, but i think Rae’s accepted that Jay-Z is a bigger artists than he his. So for him to sell 65K independently, is a great accomplishment. The album’s good as well.

Your an idiot. Maino did 18,000 of major label push, Fab did 90+ off major label push, Hov is in a league off his own, so that’s no comparison. For 65K independent, that’s a good look (just ask Slaughterhouse, they did fucking 18,000 also).
Ok, independently 65,000 is a good number, but its still not a number to have a party for. I wish he would’ve put it out on a major and maybe he could’ve got better sales. I guess he is happy with it finally being released, so the soundscan doesn’t matter to him. Oh well. Its a good album!!!!
