New York rapper Rakim recently sat down with WHO? MAG TV and revealed that he is interested in working with rap icon Jay-Z, and super-producer Dr.Dre again on a follow-up collaboration to their 2002 track "The Watcher 2." The track was originally featured on Jay-Z's Blueprint 2: The Gift & The Curse album and sported by bars from Dr. Dre and Rakim in addition to Truth Hurts' vocals.

Rakim told WHO? MAG TV:

That was a Dre project, man. A joint that I did for Dre. Jay Z heard it and the rest is history, man. It was definitely a good, little get together with me and Dre. You know what I mean? And hopefully we’ll do it again, man. 2014. Ya heard Jay? Ya heard Dre? Let’s do it, man. 2015, the new ‘Watcher.’ Keep watching.

The "I Ain't No Joke" rapper told XXLMag.com back in August 2013 that he was currently working on an album. While the release date is still unknown, if all goes well with the legendary MCs possibly reuniting in the studio, the trio could be gracing our ears with one lethal track once again!
