RZA posted this for Wu Wednesday.

I remember listening to this in 1998 for the first time. A good 5 years after the song came out. I'm checking out Enter The 36.... At the time, I wasn't really feeling it outside of a couple joints. Then it comes to "M.E.T.H.O.D Man"

The torture skit had me dying :deadrose: and then it goes into this fantastic cut. The beat was incredible, the flow was godlike....

I used to listen to this shyt so often it's not funny. Then I watched music videos and I saw Method Man getting all the girls. So right then, Method Man instantly became my favorite rapper. I put this on every tape, every CD..... Mega classic.

Even though I've warmed up to Enter the 36 in a major way, this is still my favorite joint on the album. It's so catchy but raw at the same time.

:ohhh:
That's crazy breh. How you feel about the album now?

It's a great album. Fantastic way to start a legacy. I remember back then thinking ":ehh: Kung fu shyt. I love kung-fu." It was the film samples that really got me on a lot of those tracks.

I haven't listened to it in full front to back since 98, though I've heard every track since because.. . well.... 36 Chambers is hard to escape. You'll hear those joints somewhere.

The track I slept on crazy was "Bring Da Ruckus".

I think Supreme Clientele, Cuban Linx and Liquid Swords blow it out the water, though.

Bought enter the 36 for a dollar sometime in 1999 in those old trade in use shops they use to have

Was crazy how much enjoyment I got from that dollar I knew nothing about the Wu except the clothing line before that
