For his latest album, a sequel to his 1998 banger, Extinction Level Event, Busta Rhymes promised to come out with something different. In his career, Busta has been known as the rapper who comes out with the crazy material. As he has gone from being one of rap's focal points to being one of the veterans, this has not changed.

Having done almost everything else with his other albums, it would be reasonable to think Busta Rhymes would not have any new ideas. But, always thinking outside of the box, Busta has decided to have a narrator for his latest album. No, not a close friend or a family member, or another rapper.

Busta Rhymes' E.L.E. II will be narrated by Chris Rock. While this is a first for Busta Rhymes, Chris Rock has been on albums before. He appeared on Ludacris' Theater of the Mind and he is set to appear on the new Kanye West album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. But, never before has a hip hop album been narrated by a comedian, another first for Busta Rhymes.
