In August, Busta Rhymes spoke about his work uniting Lil Wayne and Kanye West.
“There’s been a lot of talk over the last year or two about conflict between G.O.O.D. Music and Young Money and Cash Money,” Busta Rhymes said in an interview with MTV. “I just wanted to put it to bed and create an eventful moment where me and [Lil] Wayne being Young Money/Cash Money on one team, Q-Tip and Kanye [West] be on another movement on G.O.O.D. Music, just showing that camaraderie and that alliance and just making it official on a real Hip Hop level.”
Busta released Extinction Level Event – The Final World Front in 1998. The album features such songs as “Gimme Some More,” “Do It To Death” and “Just Give It To Me Raw.”
