Busta Rhymes released his first album, The Coming, in 1996. Sixteen years later, Busta has announced the title of his ninth album.
Taking to Twitter, Busta confirmed RapRadar.com’s Elliott Wilson’s statement that Busta’s newest album would be titled Year of The Dragon.
The title is a reference to one of Busta’s monikers, the “Dungeon Dragon,” which is also a reference to A Tribe Called Quest’s song “Scenario,” which features Rhymes. Additionally, it is currently the Year of the Dragon in the Chinese zodiac calendar.
