SHADE ADU ADDS RAEKWON TO A LIST OF PEOPLE SHE LISTENS TO.

Raekwon Only Built For Cuban Linx Part 2 Vinyl LP Soldier of LoveI was really dazed when i read in a recent interview where SHADE ADU was asked what music she listened to presently and she mentioned raekwon's new album; ONLY BUILT FOR CUBAN LINX...PART2, in her list. I can't remember the other artist she mentioned, but i know she also said she liked some songs on RIHANNA'S new album, RATED R.

The thing that is weird here is that you would never think a lady like her would listen to hard core rap like what raekwon does; you would think she would probably be listeningto some old BOB MARLEY ALBUM, or maybe some ENYA or something. I never thought that a 50 year old woman like shade adu would be listening to the kind of music i listen to, and even admit it in public.

Raekwon himself was so surprised and shocked about it that he made a thank you song for her about a week after the remark she made. I do think rae's album ,Raekwon Only Built For Cuban Linx Part 2 Vinyl LP is a classic, and every rap fan should get it. But it did come as a shocker for me too to hear a legend, a diva like shade talk about it in an interview. I think you really have to get the album to understand what she meant.


I don't really mention any other genre artist apart from rap up in here, but i think shade can get a pass. Her album is fantastic, from start to finish. Infact, i got it because i heard the first single, Soldier of Love, on radio the same day i heard the statement she made about rae's album, so i just gave it a shot, and i didn't regret; 10 solid tracks.
