Biography

Universally referenced as one of the greatest hip-hop artists of all time, Rakim first exploded onto the New York scene in 1986 with the iconic "Eric B. is President" single and album "Paid In Full." With its unprecedented lyricism and complex rhyme patterns, the release, alongside a carefully curated mixture of conscious spirituality, street wise braggadocio, and trend setting fashion and visuals, marked a turning point in hip-hop culture--raising the bar for future emcees and revolutionizing the globally expanding art form. Over the course of four albums with long time collaborator Eric B, three solo albums and countless singles and features, Long Island's microphone fiend has continued to garner accolades from his peers and his public with his intellectual content, uncanny innovation, and the impenetrable aura of the God MC.
