As far as mythical albums go, The Seventh Seal > Detox.
Ever since Ra demolished that Truth Hurts featuring spot a while back, he’s been yapping about this album dropping soon. And we’ve been leaning back, twiddling our thumbs waiting, judging, forgetting, dismissing.
But now, with the release of his first official single off The Seventh Seal, Ra has just revived interest in what many still consider a fictitious project.
Am I the only one still eager for this album to drop?

yesssssssssss!
Ra !
sick. just sick.
Where’s Baby Paw??? I thought that he’d be the first one to be touting how great this song is.
Didn’t you hear? It drops 7/7/07! that’s right around the corner
this just made my week.
i don’t care what the haters say. fuck ‘em all….
i hope he has a track with jewmayne on it
Can’t wait to hear how the rest of it sounds. As long as the album doesn’t sound like it was obviously made by an old school rapper. (Looking at you, Public Enemy and Ice -T)
Contra god bless you for still believing in Rakim; but he still owes me $15.67 for The 18th Letter. That album was a hot mess. When I get home I will listen to this joint; but after his last album I don’t have too much hope for it.
I think bigga must mean the master instead of 18th letter, tho the master was still a Ra album its probably his worst. But you CANT hate on 18th letter. I really cant wait for this album. I really believed it was gonna drop 7/7/07.
What could be better than the return of the god emcee?
Rakim could drop 10 straight terrible long play record albums and I’d still be checking for him.

18th letter was one of the first tapes I remember buying (yea, yall old) and it was great! The Master, not so much. he started talking some gangsta ish I couldn’t vibe with, especially coming from him.
Yeah, good news!
Wack and Sucker MC be carrefull the king is back….
Sorry for my english, i’am french
No I hated the 18th Letter, it was a horrible album. I never listened to the master.
“I’m the R, the A, to the KIM. If I wasn’t then why would I say I am?”
