HipHopDX is honored to announce that Wu-Tang Clan’s Raekwon will be covering this weekend’s BET Awards. The acclaimed Staten Island lyricist will be filming several pieces of footage that may include backstage interviews, video diaries and glimpses of this weekend’s Los Angeles event, and all the parties and gala that surround it.

In addition to this weekend’s festivities, the Chef is reportedly nearing completion with his Shaolin vs. The Wu-Tang next solo album. Released through his own H20 Water/EMI imprint, the 17-year Rap veteran will show both sides of his personality and distinct voice in the Hip Hop culture. Last year, Raekwon released Only Built 4 Cuban Linx…Pt. II, which was named HipHopDX’s Album Of The Year for 2009, before making Wu-Massacre with Ghostface Killah and Method Man earlier this year. Next month, he will executive produce Capone-N-Noreaga’s The War Report 2, which features Rae on three songs.

Stay tuned to HipHopDX for updates. Fans are asked to comment on the types of content they wish to see, per the Chef’s request.
