i remember being disappointed with Iron Flag but The W was pretty good. Forever was different to 36 Chambers but still dope as fukk IMO so no fall off there. for the 20 yr anniversary they just need to hole up in a house for a few months and let RZA be the dictator again like he was for the first 5 years. the sound will never be back to 36 Chambers vibe but RZA still has heat in the board, 6 Directions Of Boxing was fire

wutang has the incredible talent of making the same song over and over


they are brainwash music and rza has them tapped into popular subjects like religion drugs and style ... which makes them able to pretty much say the same thing a million different ways and appear cultured and relate-able

Some of you guys are killing me with the "I wasn't really feeling Wu-Tang Forever" shyt. I don't even see how it would be a matter of different taste.
And the guy above me is either trolling or just retarded.

I think it's time for this thread to fade out into the bushes.

Trife not writing for Ghost. Cut the trolling/bullshyt. I'll paypal you $2000 if you can post ANY Trife verse that sounds remotely similar to ANY Ghost verse on Wu-Block. Dead ass breh.

Yea, the guy above you is trolling and retarded.

Anyways...when Wu Forever came out, I was disappointed also. Initially. The reason was because it was TOTALLY different from 36 Chambers and I guess that's what I was expecting and didn't get. But after sitting down with that album, it soon became genius to me. Forever is a classic, no doubt, and one of the greatest double albums in hip hop history. As a Wu fan I don't see how you can not like it.

its only cause Ghost made a transition after the BPW era from spitting stream of conscience type to punchline straight forward hardcore stuff...he's been rhyming like that for ten years straight ! cats still cant accept that ! i blame DEF JAM tho ...

Damn @Billy_Ocean is repping for those of us who gave up long ago

The thing is, I still love the Wu but I take what they put out and listen to it on its merits. I know better than to believe half the shyt they say they're gonna make though - it's easier to not keep up and be surprised when some good shyt comes out.

2001.

Iron Flag should have served as a lesson of what could happen if a group suffers from too much excess.

i wish i could dap this a thousand times. Ghost is an alltime favorite and Trife completely ruined ghost. I can't even listen to him anymore. Ever since he linked up with Trife he's become a different rapper. There's nothing left of the early wu/supreme clientele ghost. He turned into a smack dvd rapper.

Almost all the main wu members were ruined by someone in their new crews. rae, ghost, and meth all had that happen to them.

When they didn't pass the torch to Shyheim, Timbo King, and the rest of those GP WU/Killa Beez nikkas in the late 90s who were outflowing most of the core members of the Clan at the time that would have kept shyt fresh after Wu Forever. I thought it was a no-brainer but shyt didn't happen....
