Busta Rhymes has been teasing a sequel to 1998’s Extinction Level Event: The Final World Front for years and now, Bus-A-Bus fans are only days away from hearing it. On Monday (October 26), the tenured Hip Hop artist shared the tracklist for Extinction Level Event 2: The Wrath of God, which features a star-studded lineup.
Kendrick Lamar, Rick Ross, Rakim, A Tribe Called Quest’s Q-Tip, Pete Rock, Mariah Carey, Anderson .Paak, Rapsody and Mary J. Blige are among the many guests who appear on the highly anticipated album.
Busta captioned the post in all caps, “#ELE2THEWRATHOFGOD DROPPIN’ 10.30.20 THE PROPHECY WILL BE FULFILLED!! ONLY 4 DAYS LEFT!!! PREORDER & MERCH AVAILABLE NOW!! Click link in bio!!!”
The newly svelte MC says he’s ready to promote the album now that he’s in better shape. The 48-year-old showed off his toned physique last week with an Instagram post featuring a side-by-side photo of before and after. In the first photo, Busta is rocking a sizable Buddha belly and in the second, he’s sporting his rediscovered six-pack.
“DON’T EVER GIVE UP ON YOURSELF!!” he wrote in all caps. “LIFE BEGINS RIGHT NOW!!! MY DEDICATION IS DIFFERENT!! I WOULD NEVER PUT OUT AN ALBUM AND NOT BE IN THE BEST SHAPE OF MY LIFE!! I RESPECT MYSELF TOO MUCH AND I RESPECT Y’ALL TOO MUCH!!! I’M ONLY HERE TO INSPIRE!!”

I know it’s cliché to say but THIS ALBUM IS A CLASSIC! TRUST ME!
It fucking better be.
I got it two weeks ago and it has many highlights. Rakim sounds like in his prime, Q-Tip track is smooth, Premo joint wayyy to short (not even 2 minutes) and BBD are just sample but that track is an instant club banger.
Great album
Let’s go, Bus! Bumping that ELE1 right now.
Not that awful song with Vybz Kartel… That’ll ruin the album.
I agree. I was not expecting that, as a single at that. Throw away track
Bus always has throwaways….remember that bullshit with Estelle last album? Just make a playlist and remove the tracks.
Nope this was recording round 2016
Not listening to anything with that racist, scamming-his-own, in-bed-with-scientology cult leader Farrakhan. Black people who still love him and his 5% have to wake up
-???
Thanks for letting us know you care
Never said i didn’t. I care and i’m not afraid to sya it. Farrakhan is a stain on black culture who’s made millions by scamming his own people and spreading hate and misinformation. Fuck him.
Settle down. It’s not that serious
Trust me when I say, that Kendrick collab is going to be great. I’ve already heard a version of it from awhile back. Shit is fire.
