Cue the hype machine. Last night, Loud.com premiered this cut from the 8 Diagrams. It spots an interpolation of the Beatles’ “My Guitar Gently Weeps.” As I mentioned earlier, Ghost had already administered some lyrical justice to this instrumental. After 43 listens, I can tell you that Method Man truly owned this version.

The 8 Diagrams is scheduled to drop on December 4, same day as Saigon’s The Greatest Story Never Told.

    Ghost’s original verse is possibly my favorite Ghost track ever so you can’t top the rawness and straight gangster of that, but he still kills it.

    “So I fuckin’ bit him”

    Rae has the menace and Meth rips it (but too short)

    Solid track

    I think Raekwon’s verse is just boring. He’s been real lazy lately, on every track he’s been on. This needs to be remixed with more verses from Meth and no Rae. Just snoozy man!!! Where’s the passion kid!
