Originally released in 2009, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... Pt. II marked Raekwon’s triumphant sequel to the legendary Purple Tape, expanding his cinematic mafioso rap universe with vivid storytelling and elite production from J Dilla, Dr. Dre, RZA, Pete Rock, The Alchemist, and more.

This special edition double purple cassette set pairs the full vocal album with the official instrumental version, presented across two color-matched purple cassette shells as a nod to the iconic original Only Built 4 Cuban Linx.

The vocal album features appearances from Ghostface Killah, Method Man, Inspectah Deck, GZA, Masta Killa, Cappadonna, Jadakiss, Styles P, Beanie Sigel, Slick Rick, Blue Raspberry, and more, while the instrumental version puts the album’s cinematic production front and center.
