Getting excited about an anticipated rap record can be a cruel game. The last year has seen a ridiculous amount of release dates shuffled for pretty much every major hip-hop record. Such has been the case with Wu-Tang legend Raekwon's follow-up to the 1995 classic Only Built 4 Cuban Linx.

The record, logically titled Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II, was initially announced in 2005 and fans have been drooling over its arrival ever since. Fortunately, this week brings the news that the record is slated to be released on August 11.

To add to the anticipation, the record is said to include guest spots from Ghostface Killah, the Game, Bun B, Method Man, Dr. Dre, RZA and drummer Travis Barker. So now you have even more reason for disappointment when they move the release date, again.
