The intro to Wu-Tang forever is an all time terrible start to a CD (goat albums with WOAT intros)

[ℒℴѵℯJay ELECTUA]

I remember putting this disc in like finally...there is no way this shyt is bad....no fukkin way

And that first track I was 13/14 like "" uhh...alright...

Album is a pure classic but I was like WTF is this dude talking about and the beat...was wtf is this shyt...and it NEVER ENDS

This is a woat intro on a goat album.

You a 85 er FOOL

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

You a 85 er FOOL

Do the 5 or even 15% love boys like you tho

No hate just asking

 

[Awesome Wells]

Gimme your top 5.

It changes.

But it's usually:

The Low End Theory
Death Certificate
OB4CL
The Infamous
Ready to Die or Criminal Minded or It Takes A Nation...

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

We heard Poppa Wu on the intro to Rae's Northstar and the outro to the greatest Wu song ever All That I Got Is You.

So this was an underwhelming appearance by comparison. Foreshadowing the underwhelming album

Yes, for sure. This intro was kinda all over the place. The outro on all that I got is you is bliss, and you was already like by that point in the song


"...WHY?





You see....the universe, which consists of the sun and moon..."

I think all of these fall under "arguable", but all definitely have credibility to have as good or better than Wu-Tang forever for sure.

Great shortlist bro.

Pity about the 2Pac inclusions but great fukking list.

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

The intro grew on me

I remember as a joey going "Off to a bad start"

Then I started listening...and listening, Poppa Wu was legit giving folks gems and was possibly the most important part of that album.

The Low End Theory

Exquisite taste, sir.

Shyt I fukking LOVE LOVE LOVE Wu-Tang Forever but not only do I cosign this list ...I don't think Forever is a Top 5 Wu album!

36 Chambers
Liquid Swords
Cuban Linx
Return to the 36: Dirty
Supreme Clientele
Ironman
Shyt 6 Feet Deep Gravediggaz
Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars

I'd rank all of those over Forever...

Why you say this

 

[Stuckinthe90s]

Why you say this

Look at my rep.

All 2Pac stans

I could have sworn you were a fellow Pac hater too.

Respect nonetheless.

Na

Wutang forever is a different type of album

Its like a book intro. Sets the tone. And makes reunited SMASH. 8 min intro to a 2.5 hr album. Non stop bars. It needed it in a way. Set the whole tone of the album. That it would be DIFFERENT. Rza made the right call on some ART shyt. It was like sitting at 5% meeting irl. It sets the entire theme up.

People who hate it are casual rap heads who want that quick mcdonalds like pop fix with a toy. They arent serious wu heads. This was a home cooked meal. With the fixings.

And The intro was saying grace, the prayer before we EAT. Ley me know this shyt was gon be monumental. 1 of a kind intro.

Anyone who skips wu revolution or second coming is not a wu fan like that.
