By Davis Huynh / Tracks / August 19, 2010 / 778 Views

After much speculation and surprise, The Chef confirms with XXL that "It's definitely going to happen." The mafioso rap king who's made an illustrious career through street tales and anthems steps into a more mainstream collab by joining forces with Justin Bieber, alongside with Kanye West. Raekwon also went on to say,

"When you got these kinda talents merging together to do something exciting, I think it's something that's gonna make the fans check it out. I'm a big fan of both of these guys. I think, at the end of the day, shorty [Bieber] is a sensation. And [for him] to acknowledge me it makes me feel good that the young generation is checkin' me out like that. And at the same time it gives me a position to play a big brother in the game. He wants my assistance or whatever, he can get it. I respect him, I like his style."

Headover to XXL to read the full article.

    Fucked up shit. I'm not exactly surprised a 'hardcore' rapper is a phony, hopefully Game doesn't collaborate with Bieber, but he did give him a shout out on the brake lights mixtape. This is some gay shit. The kid might be short but he has everybody on his dick. Money is power, but what is most powerful is the potential for gaining 'market' which will lead to more money, which is one of the reasons artists like Kanye and Raekwon do collabs with him (they want the teenage girls and homosexuals to get interested in their music too).

    Don't call me a hater, because it is obvious that shit is fucking ridiculous. It would even be better if they were doing the collab with Taylor Swift.

    Some optimism:
    The song might be really good, respect to Justin Bieber for attracting lots of girls, making lots of money, and owning a lamborghini.

    Words for you Bieber:
    You are everywhere, turn on the computer, you are all over the net, turn on the TV, you are on every station, walk outside, hear kids saying your name in conversation, be around old people and they start talking about how much they love/hate you; etc. This is so fucking annoying - everywhere I go I hear your name, I bet you sometimes get sick of hearing your name all the time too. Don't trust anyone too because they are all taking advantage of your success and as soon as you lose half of your fans-or-so you will be screwed by your managers/parents/other singers.
