Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... is the solo
debut album of American rapper and
Wu-Tang Clan member
Raekwon, released on August 1, 1995, by
Loud Records and
RCA Records. The album was loosely composed to play like a film with Raekwon as the "star," fellow Wu-Tang member
Ghostface Killah as the "guest-star," and producer
RZA as the "director." It features appearances from every member of the Wu-Tang Clan and affiliates
Cappadonna, and
Blue Raspberry. It also features an acclaimed guest appearance from rapper
Nas, which marked the first collaboration with a non-affiliated artist on a Wu-Tang related album.
