RAKIM ALBUM INFO - Dedicato     07.07.2003 - 20:18

The album “Oh my God” is still in works right now. But the album is not comin out this summer.
There's no features at this point. The info, that Interscope wants Rakim to do a gangsta type album is NOT true. Sorry, but I dunno, why Interscope isn't feelin Rakim and what type of hype is Interscope really trying to get.
More info hopefully later.

I think this is part of the plan.. spread fake release-dates, false rumours, and vague hints.. etc.
Cuz this is really what we have heard before.. only this time Rakim have said "The summer"..

And then suddenly.. when people expect it the least..the impact!
OH MY GOD!




I think that's the effect they want.. will be legendary if they manage to pull it properly off.

I think they wanted other pionners like Gangstarr to get back and see if they would make noise with their style...like that they would know what type of production he should use to make a great come back...and I understand that they want it perfect its because usually, (well these days) real hiphop music dont sell so they are afraid to waste money on this

Let's wait for a real source (Rakim himself) to give us some news.  His interview should be up on thaformula.com (http://www.thaformula.com) soon.

...that's if he decides to give up some info.
