TIME Ranks “OB4CL 2″ Top 10 Album Of ‘09
TIME magazine named Raekwon’s Only Built 4 Cuban Linx 2 the #7 album of the year. In fact, it’s also the only rap album listed. Congrats! Here’s what they had to say:
The sequel to Raekwon’s much loved 1995 solo debut picks up as if no time has passed. He’s still rhyming about cocaine deals, hustlers and urban menace — which makes for an elevated degree of difficulty, since a song about the production of crack (“Pyrex Vision”) should be not only impotent in 2009, but deservedly so. The reason it works, like all of Cuban Linx, Pt 2, is that Raekwon is a poet of grime, a storyteller who understands that rap is less about an easy hook than the collision of carefully chosen words. He’s also a melancholic who prefers replaying the circumstances of growing up in hell (“All my life around drug niggas, villains who want millions/ Niggas with them hoodies on with Teks in the building”) to celebrating the trappings of success. With production from nearly every top name in hip-hop, it’s a spooky and sad monograph — not lovable, but quite powerful.
DANGER From VH1’s For the Love of Ray J released from Psychiatric Hospital
According to bossip.com, Monica "Danger" from the first season of VH1’s “For the Love of Ray J” was in a psychiatric hold earlier this month after an incident that involved her newborn daughter.
Apparently, the reality star had a bad case of postpartum depression, resulting in some personal problems. As a result, she spent a week in a psychiatric hospital in Northern California.
People became concerned about her when she suddenly shaved off her hair after an argument with her baby’s father. However; she has learned that she is out of the hospital and doing fine.
