Raekwon recently spoke on how he’s stayed relevant in the game and what he and Nas discussed when they recently reunited. Speaking with Ruby Hornet TV, the Wu-Tang Clan swordsman explained that he’s learned how to build himself as a brand and to learn from his mistakes.
“I learned about myself and how important my brand is as a person and as a company. I definitely won’t allow myself to fall short on any kind of failure. Based on all the experiences I have in life, especially in this music business, that these are the times you gotta know,” he said. “I realize my powers and where I went wrong with certain things and where I’m able to fix things and that’s all I’ve been working on for the last five years, is self-preservation. Not depending on anybody to make my career be more than what it is. It’s like, it’s just about me. What you wanna do, Rae? That was something I had to just go through, know what I mean?”
He also spoke on reuniting with Esco for the track “Rich and Black,”
included on Rae’s most recent release Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang.

We feel that we a great team together, and we get up and talk, but most importantly, we just building.”
