FACT TV: Raekwon Interview

Ascending alongside his Wu-Tang Clan cohorts, the Staten Island rapper quickly made a name for himself with stand-out bars and an unshakable attitude. Soon he was spitting solo, and crafted one of the Clan’s finest satellite efforts – the stone-cold classic Only Built 4 Cuban Linx…. Since then he’s drifted from project to project, and is about to cement his latest solo full-length Fly International Luxurious Art which is set to drop on November 4.

Here he chats to FACT TV about his legacy, the new wave of rappers and what he’s been doing to keep himself on track.
