Give 2013 Obituary a spin - it's a new offering from Papoose. It was dropped on Wednesday, January 1st, 2014. Papoose's rap artistry continues to improve with every release, something which is most definitely evidenced on 2013 Obituary.

In conjunction with the film, 'Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom', Rakim honors and pays respect to the late great leader Nelson Mandela in this new track "Madiba".
