Raekwon finally came out with a new record (along with about 20 music videos) after 6 years since his last one, and 14 years since his classic 90s surrealist gangsta hit 'Only Built For Cuban Linx' and what does he call it?
'Only Built For Cuban Linx...II'
Not the most creative title but it does get the point across: He's back doing what he does--combining the outer space mythology of Wu Tang with the Black Mafia propaganda of suits and cigars.
But it got me thinking. What other great musicians should capitalize on their early success by releasing a return-to-form sequel to an earlier hit? For two tickets to the show at 930 Club on Tuesday, December 15th please post your suggestions in the comments of which albums should get a Part II made in 2010!
Here I'll get you started:
Radiohead Pablo Honey...II

Same crunchy solid state guitar sound and same album cover except the kid is like 30.
Souls of Mischief: 93 Til Infinity...II

AKA: ∞ - 1993+16
Guns N Roses: Use Your Illusion...II...II

It just adds up, right?
Miss Kitten and the Hacker: First Album...II

I miss electroclash :(
NOW YOU GO!
