Chronique
1990, Ice Cube sort sur la côte ouest des Etats-Unis, AmeriKKa's Most Wanted, un des albums fondateurs du mouvement gangsta rap. Only Built 4 Cuban Linx de Raekwon et RZA, est le reflet côte est de ce travail, passé à la moulinette des fantasmes du Wu-Tang Clan.
Raekwon établit un parallèle entre les destinées des membres du Wu-Tang Clan et ceux d'une famille de la mafia. Hormis cette parabole peu évidente à saisir, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx ouvre effectivement la voie du gangsta rap côte est qui ne va pas tarder à exploser avec All Eyez on Me de 2Pac en 1996.
Le plus surprenant dans Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, c'est son climat étonnament apaisé. Raekwon arrive à alléger les rythmiques du gangsta rap, tout en conservant les bruitages de rue et autres dialogues estampillés gangster. Au lieu d'une menace permanente, c'est plutôt une sorte de reportage auquel se livrent Raekwon et RZA.
« Rainy Dayz » est le titre le plus réussi de l'ensemble, « Guillotine » est finalement moins tranchant que son titre le laisse supposer, tandis que « Wu-gambinos » illustre parfaitement le propos de départ de Raekwon.
Only Built 4 Cuban Linx est devenu sans trop de mal un classique du gangsta rap tout en échappant aux lourdeurs hardcore qui polluent souvent le genre.
