Wu-Tang Clan rapper Raekwon the Chef has officially signed with Aftermath Entertainment and will serve up his highly anticipated album Only Built for Cuban Linx II under the label founded by West Coast rapper/producer Dr. Dre.

The announcement ends months of speculation as to whether or not the album would be released on the powerhouse label, which is also home to Eminem, Eve, Busta Rhymes, 50 Cent, and G-Unit.

According to a statement on Wu-Tang Clan’s official site Wu-Tang Corp., Raekwon is currently in the studio recording new material for the new disc, which is rumored to feature production by Dr. Dre and the RZA and appearances from the Wu-Tang Clan.

“Rae isn’t taking this album lightly and it will be released on Aftermath Records, not on the Wu Music Group as originally scheduled,” said a statement on the site. “It will be an instant classic!”

Raekwon’s solo debut Only Built For Cuban Linx was released in 1995 on Loud Records and set the Hip-Hop world a buzz with songs like “Ice Cream,” “Criminology,” “Incarcerated Scarfaces,” and “Can It Be All So Simple.”

His next efforts, however, failed to match the commercial success as its predecessor–the gold-selling Immobilarity was released in 1999 via Epic while 2003’s The Lex Diamonds Story was issued by Motown/Universal.

release date has been set yet for Only Built for Cuban Linx II.
