Video: Raekwon Interview w/ HipHopChronicle
In the first part of the interview, Rae talks about why he put Criminology 2 as a buzz record. The Chef tells me he’s in talks with people from Hollywood to do movies and revealed that he’s planning to drop a documentary to coincide with the release of the album. We talk about lyrics in Hip Hop and the importance of it to an emcee like him. He gives his main ingredients to being a dope emcee and having longevity And to end the first part, Rae lists the people and albums that he feels people should study to learn more about Hip Hop.
Props to Sumit. Hit the jump for part 2.

In the second part of this exclusive interview, The Chef speaks on respect in Hip Hop and the lack of it in Hip Hop. He speaks on paying homage to the members of the Wu Tang. Rae talks RZA involvement in the process of the album as well as working with Dr. Dre. And finally Rae talks to me about the Marley Marl and why its “vintage Wu”. Interestingly Rae says he used to imagine being part of the Juice Crew.
