yeah this was always my way of thinking, it was kwan but maybe it was transliterated as "kwon" in 70s movie subtitles

nice to see that naming kids Raekwon had a big spike around 1996, seems appropriate. I'd like to see the numbers on babies named Ol' Dirty Bastard.

if you google it, he says it's his 5% Nation name, though doesn't explain beyond that. Also, his middle name is Quontrell

So his full name is Corey Quontrell Woods, seems like the mystery is solved indeed.

What's the vocal sample in the beginning of Kiss the Ring? Before the song kicks in and it goes Elton John there's a male vocal bit that I recognize, maybe from another Rae or Wu track but I'm spacing.
