	Only Built 4 Cuban Linx ... (Explicit) - Raekwon - Pandora Internet Radio
		A serious contender for the title of best Wu-Tang solo album (rivaled only by the Genius' Liquid Swords), Only Built 4 Cuban Linx is also perhaps the most influential, thanks to Raekwon's cinematic imagination.
		Cuban Linx's first-person narratives are filled with paranoia, ambition, excess, and betrayal, fast rises and faster falls.
		Like the Genius' Liquid Swords, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx takes a few listens to reveal the full scope of its lyrical complexities, but it's immensely rewarding in the end, and it stands as a landmark in the new breed of gangsta rap.

	Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II will be the fourth studio album from Wu-Tang Clan rap artist Raekwon.
		Similar to the first Cuban Linx album, OB4CLII will be set up in a cinematic fashion, with skits loosely tying each song together in a sort of storyline, and each rapper playing an implied "persona" of sorts; for instance, Raekwon being the main protagonist, with GZA and Inspectah Deck playing "supporting roles" throughout.
		The main sidekick in "Only Built 4 Cuban Linx", Ghostface Killah is rumored to be appearing on three of the tracks.

	Aftermath Music dot com \| Corey Woods aka Raekwon - Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II
		Only Built 4 Cuban Linx is perhaps the most influential of all Wu-Tang solo projects, thanks to Raekwon's cinematic imagination and his creation of a narrative album format revolving around cocaine trafficking, criminal activity, and a rise through the ranks of the illegal industry.
		Albums to follow this thematic pattern, and to rely on Cuban LINX' format for song construction, include Jay-Z's Reasonable Doubt, 50 Cent's Get Rich Or Die Trying, and even Raekwon's subsequent The Lex Diamond Story, which is organized around Mafia-based narrative progression, and first-person reporting on the drug trade.
		He plans to release the long-delayed sequel to his debut, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II, in 2007 under Aftermath; it will be executive produced by Busta Rhymes (informally) and the RZA, with RZA handling most of the production--including the first single--as well as tracks from Dr. Dre, among others.

		RZA wanted Cuban Linx's music to transport listeners into Rae's transcendent point of view, and he succeeded so spectacularly that thousands of rap fans --the ones who don't look to hip-hop for an out-of-body experience -- will never fully comprehend all the undying fuss about this album".

		Only 3 left in stock--order soon (more on the way).
		The album was about 4 1/2 but not considered a classic though.
		Incarcerated scarfaces is another all time rap classic which in my opinion is not only the best track on this excellent album but one of the top five tracks in hip hop history.

	Forums - XXL Article On The Making Of "Only Built 4 Cuban Linx" (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Cuban Linx was the first instace of rappers adopting mafia-inspired aliases (Wu-Gambinos), songs like "Incarcerated Scarfaces" and "Ice Cream", initiated slang like "politic" and "butter-pecan Rican", into the hip-hop vernacular, and Cristal became the bubbly of choice for the ghetto fabulous set, thanks to Rae and co.'s endorsement in various song lyrics.
		Nothing, however was more indicative of Raekwon's allegiance to the street soldier aesthetic than the LP's intended full title, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx Niggaz - as much a declaration of its musical potency as a forewarning to those not perpared for the uncut raw contained within, (Eventually and understandibly, the N-wordr was dropped).
		On the 10-year anniversary of Only Built 4 Cuban Linx...'s release, we spoke with Raekwon and his collaborators for their reflections and insights on the creation of this hard-boiled hip-hop classic.

	[No title]
		"Only Built 4 Cuban Linx" is nothing but a Wu-Tang classic.
		Wu family vibe combined with incredible lyrical skills from Rae and Ghost is a super strong concept.
		The album is not only very varied but each track is very unique.

		As a huge fan of the original Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, I can't wait til this one comes out.
		The only real downside is that apparently Ghostface isn't really going to be in this one, it's going to be more Raekwon and GZA.

		Raekwons 'Only Built 4 Cuban Linx' ist wohl eines der besten Wu-Solo Alben.
		Only Built 4 Cuban Linx ist ein Meilenstein des HipHop vergleichbar mit dem Album von Ghostface Killah IronMan.
		Aber ich muss zugeben, obwohl ich ein sehr groÃer Ghostface-Fan bin, ist Only Built 4 Cuban Linx einen kleinen Tick besser wie IronMan.

		This actually sets up for Ghostface's Killah solo (If you can call it that, he only has 2 solos).
		With Wu-Tang still in their primes and dominating the scene, Raekwon and Ghostface Killah hooked up to drop one of my favorite albums of all time, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx.
		After copping "36 Chambers" and "Tical", next up was "Only built for Cuban Linx." This is the album that really put the Wu-Tang as a whole over the top.

		On ONLY BUILT 4 CUBAN LINX..., Raekwon's street-tough lyrics spotlight the roughness of his everyday life and, combined with short story interludes, shape the plot for this gangster movie of an album.
		The topics on CUBAN LINX are all Chef-centred braggadocio, and the beats constantly reflect the hip-hop underground.
		Appearances not only include ghostface but most of the wu tang clan, and nas.

		In the shadow of fellow Wu-Tang Clan stars Method Man and Ol’ Dirty Bastard, Raekwon and his lyrical accomplice, Ghostface Killah, created Only Built 4 Cuban Linx…, a criminology rap classic that hustlers worldwide could relate to.
		Nothing, however, was more indicative of Raekwon’s allegiance to the street soldier aesthetic than the LP’s intended full title, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx Niggaz—as much a declaration of its musical potency as a forewarning to those not prepared for the uncut raw contained within.
		Raekwon and Ghostface could create their own slang, devote skits to Wallabee Clarks, use entire dialogue passages from their favorite films as interludes, and invite just one guest star to their coming-out party (Nas), because they didn’t give two shits about fitting in with what other rappers were doing.

	Raekwon - Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... Review - sputnikmusic
		It sees RZA moving away from the gritty style of earlier Wu-Tang projects, and embracing a cinematic lustre which relies heavily on strings and classic soul samples.
		manages to keep the listeners attention throughout eighteen songs, with only two of those being skits.
		A couple of the tracks on the last quarter on the album aren't quite as spectacular compared to the first seven songs, but that's more a testament to the brilliance of the opening half of the album as opposed to them being weak songs.

		The topics on CUBAN LINX are all Chef-centered braggadocio, and the beats constantly reflect the hip-hop underground.
		In fact, CUBAN LINX bares closer resemblance to an actual Wu-Tang Clan album than any solo record by a Wu-Tang member.

		Busta said that, through the course of putting his own album together, he’s been offered tracks that were more conducive to Raekwon’s style and he passed them along.
