First, see our previous posting / open letter regarding Rakim and The 7th Seal (dropping Nov. 17). We’ll wait. … Ok, you’re back? Now, we’re very pleased with this, this is definitely solid. Not 100% mind-blowing, but very promising. We do Stan for Ra, and we liked the jabs and crosses he been dropping, but we’re still waiting for an uppercut or knockout blow. This will definitely hold us over nicely though.

This was caught over at 2DopeBoyz, who say:
The production is Needlz’ doing, and the hook is provided by Tracey Horton. Great track all around.
We agree. Though we agree also with some commenters at 2DopeBoyz who say there is definitely something a lil… new… with Ra’s voice.. Odd.
