Raekwon the Chef is in the building! You know what that means? No punches pulled, no questions dodged. It’s all kept 100, 100% of the time.
When Rae sits down to talk with Talib Kweli and co-host Jasmin Leigh, there’s no need for chit chat. The trio gets into the meaty convos right away -- from Wu family dynamics to the Supreme Alchemy of the 5% Nation to songwriting techniques to The Purple Tape. The convo is wide-ranging and avoids nothing.
It’s not just about “what” is discussed, though -- it’s also “how.” Raekwon and Kweli respect one another as lyricists, road warriors, and rappers who have been in the game and are still thriving. That mutual respect leads to a level of honesty that’s rare in celebrity interviews.
You love the Wu-Tang? Get your ears on this one -- it’s a classic.
