Raekwon on Kanye & 2 Chainz Being an Extension of Wu-Tang Family (Part 28)

[@JohnVallas]

The knowledge being passed down by Raekwon, to other men…is so deep and powerful. It’s so cool to see a rapper from when I was a kid be such a great person.

[@N1ghtshade]

Aint the truth fam

[@IvanDju]

Read his book!!!

[@TamRoc18]

Raekwon is a great lyricist and I have nothing but respect for what he brought to our culture. 💯

[@shawtyeatemup1352]

Definitely in my top fav 15 rappers!!!! Lyrically he's top 10 easy

[@highcry]

I'll never forget walking into Raekwon's home in Miami while he was recording the single for Lex Diamond Story. The way he sounds, acts, raps, was EXACTLY the same way his aura was when i saw him. He was Rae even candid and off the camera

[@G_e_o_r_g_i_e]

Stop 🧢’n 😂

[@highcry]

@@G_e_o_r_g_i_e Lol Nah its true. I use to run with a few members of Lost Boyz and one of them was Mr. Cheeks brother. I also knew Cheeks. I met Raekwon's brother Kay and we became cool. This was back when Rae had Icewater Inc which later was called Icewater H20 I think

[@walterclark3198]

The wu Tang symbol is legendary. The Wu Tang clan will never be duplicated. These brothers changed the game and raised a generation of prideful and powerful ppl. Plus they broke color barriers in music just like Michael Jackson did.

The wu symbol is more powerful than the jordan symbol

One of the best interviews ever. Wutang is worldwide!!!!

[@TheSstretch68]

DOPE ASS INTERVIEW!!!!! THE LEGENDARY CHEF RAEKWON!!! Still rocking all his albums to this day.

[@QuietstormRB]

“You be good to people, they gonna be good to you.” 💯 Simple yet profound advice from Rae. People put forth so much effort into being assholes when it costs nothing to be a decent human being.

[@QuietstormRB]

@Makaveli Unfortunately, anything can cost you your life. I can only speak for myself but I’m decent and I’m still here. I’m a firm believer in karma. You get back what you put out. I don’t allow people to take my kindness for weakness. I live by certain rules and parameters. Anyone who can’t respect that, it’s all good. I just can’t rock with you.

[@Ramble79]

I think rza sent a message that Rae was difficult and not easy to work with. He seems very level headed

[@reidwilson7674]

@@QuietstormRB when did god start doing dirt because karma is suppose to come from the earth which is his ?

[@QuietstormRB]

@@reidwilson7674 Honestly? I don’t have the answer to that simply because I don’t practice religion. I live my life by practicing common sense while knowing the difference between right and wrong.

We're all an extension of Wu-Tang Clan in some way. Raekwon is a stand up dude and dropped a lot of jewels in this interview.

[@odetobaltimore]

What's so shocking about that? Interviews cost money. As down to earth as the Wu may be, they are businessmen. You get what you pay for. No reason to make it a bigger thing than it is.

[@gweah7821]

I think of all the rappers, Raekwon is the GOAT doing interviews. He always comes across as a fountain of wisdom, humble, wise and effortlessly dropping infinite jewels

[@gilbertnicholas1582]

WITHOUT QUESTION that W is the greatest symbol in hip hop

[@scottstorch808]

Incarcerated scarface was my favorite song as a kid in the 90s. When he shouted out Connecticut in that song every kid in my hood thought that was the shit. That CT was valued in hip hop

[@MAJORLEEGUE]

You can't fake that type of excitement that's in Vlads voice...

[@dylanschannelable]

“We love the people that care about us, but don’t take advantage of a good man” that’s so real

[@j1thegod]

Rae single handedly just loaned Vlad back all the credit he lost over the last few years. Peace to the god!

[@yobwoc1000]

Immobilarity was a great follow-up. The beats on the second album showed Raekwon can jump in any beat. His work on Iron Man and The Infamous showed he can body a beat with one verse. Raekwon is a great m.c.

[@victordomingoakabigfuentes9646]

[@donwhite1572]

I couldn't help but read his book in his voice. Haha. I could tune in to anyone from WuTang speaking and listen as if my father is sitting me down and schooling me. Young kids that listen to hip hop now should take head to everything these OGs have to say. They definitely have a lot to teach through their stories and their music. WuTang will forever be for the children, and the children are the future.

I feel like it would’ve been the closest you would’ve gotten to OB4CL and Ironman without RZA producing.
