New Music | Lazarus & Rakim, "Not To Be Defined"

Rakim, "The Re-Up' (album cover art work)

You may be wondering who is Lazarus? You may be wondering how did he and Rakim end up on a joint together? Yeah, you may be wondering a lot of things....

A few things you don't have to wonder though...

No, this isn't another Paid In Full, My Melody, Microphone Fiend, I Know You Got Soul or Eric B For President......

However, despite what shortcomings there may be here, it's always a blessing to hear Rakim with something new.

"Not To Be Defined" is the lead single off of Rakim's forthcoming album, "The Re-Up", set to drop August 29th, through 1332 Records.

The album will have features from Method Man, Kool G. Rap, Canibus, Skyzoo, LA The Darkman, Joell Ortiz, Prodigy, Big Twins, 38 Spesh, Planet Asia, Ras Kass, Chino XL and Kxng Crooked.
