Raekwon speaks on Lyrical Content

Ever since he first came into the game, Raekwon was hailed as one of the best rappers to touch a microphone. Most rappers are considered great because of the way that the make words rhyme. Others are considered great because of the stories that they tell through their rhymes. There is no single category that Raekwon fits into.

Each year, there is always the discussion of the best rappers of all-time. People always point towards the likes of Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G. when talking about the best ever. But, more recently, people have added Jay-Z to this prime discussion and some are even placing Lil Wayne into the conversation. The rappers that always end up left off are the guys like Raekwon.

XXL, however, has taken the time to pay some homage to Raekwon and his skills. Rae would even take the time to speak on his raps, himself. He said that every time that he picks up the mic he tries to paint clear pictures with his rhymes. Raekwon said that he wants the people to listen to him rap and be able to close their eyes and imagine everything that is going on. When speaking his album, Raekwon said that every song off of that album deserves a music video.
