Eric B. released a self-titled solo album in 1995 on the independent label 95th Street Recordings. Legal issues continued to delay Rakim’s solo career, but he finally released The 18th Letter in 1997. In 1999, Rakim’s second solo album The Master was released to less favorable reviews. By the turn of the millennium, Eric B. was pursuing other business interests outside of music. Rakim signed with Dr. Dre’s Aftermath label in 2000, but the expected album never materialized. Since then, Rakim has made guest appearances with numerous other artists such as Jay-Z (“The Watcher, Part 2”), Truth Hurts (“Addictive”), Nas, KRS-One and Kanye West (“Classic”). In 2002, “Don’t Sweat The Technique” appeared in the video game Aggressive Inline. In 2004 “I Know You Got Soul” appeared on the video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, playing on Playback FM. In November 2009, Rakim released The Seventh Seal.
