The Chef has 16 tracks on the LP, including features from CeeLo Green, Andra Day, Lil Wayne on “My Corner” and G-Eazy on “Purple Brick Road.”
Raekwon partnered with tech company SubPac to bring a handful of lucky fans and supporters The Wild through a backpack that plays the music for a full-body experience.
Prior to releasing The Wild, the Wu-Tang vet also shared a remix of “What It Comes Too” with Ghostface Killah.

Today, January 12, marks the 47th birthday of the Wu-Tang Clan’s most fly and luxurious member, Raekwon. But he’s the one giving the gift out to the fans, as he’s taken to social media to make good on his promise that his new music would be arriving for the new year.
Officially unveiling The Wild as his seventh studio album, the artwork (created by Dan Lish) depicts the Staten Island rap legend in an urban concrete jungle of sorts, towering over personified animals.
Early reports also claimed the album was to be released on March 10, 2017 but The Chef debunked those rumblings on Twitter.
“FYI album date will be released on a later date it’s not March 10th and also my middle name ain’t Quontrell either lol,” he wrote, with the latter being a reference to his Wikipedia page.
One thing’s for certain, however. The LP will be released through ICEH20/Empire Records.

“LP IS DONE !!!!! #blades is sharpened. # 2017 release litted !!!!! I will always appreciate real rap…..#factual” he wrote in the caption of a shot of himself getting a trim from the barber.
