Click Rakim ‘Seventh Seal’: Update
Just a few bits to add to our pretty extensive preview of Rakim’s ‘The Seventh Seal’ album a month or so back:
– It’s now set for a November 17th release (though it’ll be November 16th in the UK).
– The first single will be ‘Walk These Streets’, now featuring Maino and Tracey Horton. It’ll be released on October 27th.
- ‘Walk These Streets’ is produced by Needlz.
– ‘Walk These Streets’ was the track that previously featured Akon…
– A 20-plus date US tour is already in full effect.
– Rakim’s press release blurb on the album reads as follows:
“‘The Seventh Seal’ is my own revelation… My way of taking the best of what hip-hop has to offer, what we as a culture and a community have to offer, putting my stamp on it and leading us forward while constantly respecting what we’ve already accomplished.
“When you’ve been blessed with a career like mine, you develop a deep relationship with the music, and that love is recognised by the true heads that share it with you. You’ll see us keep building as we break through each seal, showing the best of what I can do in many forms, bringing the energy and having fun – but first I’m laying that foundation and giving my longtime fans the conscious fire they expect.”
