Raekwon tells Billboard.com, “The main purpose of the Only Built 4 Cuban Linx PT. II album is to make you reminisce. I'm really joyous with the opportunity I've been given. I'm taking this album back to what it is I do - back to that real music."
Prefix Magazine, “Only Built 4 Cuban Linx PT II is exactly the kind of album that'll restore your faith in hip-hop, that can cut through cynicism and gimmicks and misleading marketing and remind you what is so vital about rap music. And, for 22 tracks, this album never falls off.”
In 1993, hip-hop would be forever changed by the emergence of the gritty, Shaolin style of the seminal rap clique, the Wu-Tang Clan. Straight from the streets of Staten Island, New York , a unique conglomerate of nine individually exceptional lyricists flourished. Fondly referred to as the Wu, RZA, Method Man, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Inspectah Deck, GZA, U-God, Masta Killa, and Ol' Dirty Bastard, released the epic album Enter The Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers. Raekwon (the Chef), one of the nine talented emcees, shined as the purist of lyricists. When the time came for him to release his first solo album, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx (1995), hip-hop, once again, underwent a momentous transformation. To give an accurate analogy Cuban Linx is to albums what Scarface is to movies. In fact, this classic album, which went gold in three days moves from track to track like a film moves from scene to scene. With its invigorating instrumentals and dramatic lyrical tales, Raekwon painted vivid pictures and presented powerful imagery through his enchanting verbal expression.

Perception and reality are on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to understanding the hip hop culture and its elements, and trying to live up to the history of a 30-year phenomenon.

Mr. Small's Funhouse & Theatre
At the heart of Mr Small's Funhouse lies its 650 capacity performance theatre, which includes a full bar. In three short years Mr Small's Theatre has not only carved its niche as the best small music venue in Pittsburgh but as one of the finest in the country. When USA Today / Esquire Magazine named Pittsburgh the best place to rock, it followed by saying, " Mr. Small's reputation is growing as quickly as its fans are. It hosted Ryan Adams for a month of rehearsal before his tour with the Rolling Stones, and rapper 50 Cent and the Black Eyed Peas have recorded new work in its studio..." National Artists such as Rusted Root, They Might Be Giants, Anti-Flag, and Ziggy Marley have drawn sold-out audiences to its Theatre as well as dozens of Internationally touring Major Label and Indy Acts. MTV also stopped by to Film and episode of MTV's Advanced Warning. Superb Theatre amenities and features include Hardwood Floors, 40 Ft Ceilings, custom acoustic reinforcements throughout the theatre, monitor room and staging area for Artists, and a 25x26x3 Stage, and professional standard PA and Lighting Systems.Phone: (412) 821-4447
