This list is about a month late, but what are ya gonna do?

This is just a list of the albums I'm looking forward to the most that are SUPPOSEDLY coming out this year. Yes, I do realize at least some of them won't come out this year, if ever at all (Detox, anybody?), but I can be hopeful. And hey, since Chinese Democracy finally saw the light of day in '08, anything's possible.

I will add to and subtract from this list when appropriate. Comments and questions are always welcome.

I'm really looking forward to NYGz, Ghostface/Doom, Cunninlyguists, Outkast, Slaughterhouse and Royce releases. I've given up complete hope on Saigon (who I'm dying for an album from), Rakim and Dre. I also want a Raekwon album but after all this time I don't want to get my hopes too high, although I feel there's a good chance he'll drop.

You made me aware of some albums I didn't even know were scheduled for '09 releases, thanks.

Yeah the Raekwon album was "officially" scheduled for an August 11th release date for a while, but I just read the other day that it's been pushed back to September 8th. We'll see what happens with that. I wish he'd just release the damn thing already.

Both Amazon and UGHH have the Rakim joint scheduled to drop on September 15th, which surprised the hell out of me. I honestly didn't think it would ever come out. But if Amazon gives a date for it, it's usually legit.
