Most anticipated? By the time it drops Lil Wayne will probably have the hottest verse on Detox, which will not be released because Eminem's next CD is destroying the charts. Who knows. His last two albums were classics? Everybody is entitled to their own opinion. <b>"I’ll be able to set off another trend of sound."</b> Is he taking credit for RZA's production now? OK. I know what he means, but what is hey saying? What ever happened to cohesive projects that had a direction or vision? Multiple producers If you really want a better interview, check out any recent RZA interview. He's actually working, recording, releasing, having fun, you know, doing something. And he's far more engaging. While I am eager to read or hear a new Rae interview, I’m now at lost for anything going on with OB4CL2.

Although I think the spelling that folks like Steve Flash Juon have settled on is "polying/poly/polied." It's short for politick, I think. Now what exactly Rae means when he says he's politicking... you've got me. It's not running for the Senate. Maybe it's all part of the implicitly political nature of his raps or something. Let's ask Michael Eric Dyson.

Then again it was supposed to drop in February '09 but now it's March. So I guess it'll be Watchmen in theaters, OB4CL 2 in my mailbox and I take a break from blogging. One.

Doc Please, please, please tell me you're kidding. I cannot see Rae over any of the aforementioned three's signature beats. i doubt anyone can. Even worse is the scenario in which these three made attempts at a Wu-Tang sound. * Shudders And Tray: Why must you hate on my oblivious sense of optimism? I hear what you're saying, but I wasn't really THAT disappointed with all of their last records. Actually, all of their last LPs were pretty decent. I haven't gotten to the point where those many big names on a record dont get me hyped. “What he’s neglecting to mention is that Scott Storch, Swizz Beats and Eminem are handling 70% of the rest of the album.”

You've heard RZA's latest work. You've heard Dre's latest work. You've heard Pete Rock's, Marley Marl's. If they weren't legends, we'd just say they're okay producers at this point.
