You gotta be the only person in the world who likes "Black Shampoo" :stopitslime:

The intro and Tekitha are straight skips everytime as well.

Other than that the album is definitely a classic.
i appreciate the whole album, Black shampoo is dope from the production to the approach of lyricism

Think that could be said about the first disc too. Too much filter. It just seemed like a forced album. Dont think wu forever was supposed to be the end product. Its that the label was pressuring them to match their success in that one moment. They should have let all the members release their solos first THEN put out the group project. Let the success of the other members solos bounce off of each other. Nobody would have had a wack album. They fukked up when they didnt let everyone put out a solo before the second group project. Guarantee whatever the second album would have their record would have been different.


meh.
i think deck wouldve benefited from dropping right after wutang forever. or they couldve did the BBD thing and put the other members in a side-group with deck as the frontman.

wutang forever came out at the proper time for them to have one last big run. the landscape was just changing and they were becoming old school. they generally were never a young group to begin with. east coast was shifting back to a more fun sound on one end, and on the other side of the spectrum - DMX was about to explode. wutang's clock was ticking regardless.

you didnt like the 1st disc tho?
