True, but I think BIBLE benefits from being at the very end of the album while Labels is right in the middle. I feel like I'm in the middle of an ancient kung fu epic and then Labels comes up and suddenly I'm in modern day New York in a subway car scaring old white ladies.

I think it's really cheesy, especially when they end up doing this to every video.
How MF Doom's mask came to be from a creator, collaborate and artist associated with Doom in his early years. Really cool video.
I hadn't heard OB4CL until a few years ago so I can kind of relate. I was also a West Coast only guy for a long time. In fact I didn't give two fucks about Wu until Wu Forever made me buy 36 chambers. I remember seeing classmates with Both OB4CL and Return to the 36 and thinking they looked like cool album covers but I was too busy listening to Death Row to give em a shot.
50 Cent ft. Dr. Dre & Alicia Keys - New Day.
The description in the blog pretty much sums up my feelings. Song is pretty dope though, I didn't know 50 Cent was still capable of making listenable songs. So props for that.

Not gonna lie, I dont get this at all siddx. But thats what I like about you. Your incomprehensibility.
I did have one friend who bled Wu and the dude would not stop listening to it and would always fucking recommend it. It got to the point where anything Wu put a bad taste in my mouth. Listening to music on your own time and when you want to definitely helps with your ability to like the album. I'm glad I can listen to it now and fully appreciate the genius of the albums.

All these Dre features are a sign telling us that Detox is right around the corner. I can feel it in my bones.
Or Fishscale, or Bulletproof Wallets, or Grandmasters, or Beneath the Surface, or Return to the 36, or Uncontrolled Substance, or OB4CL2, or No Said Date, or Heavy Mental....

Come on CRS, my little brother has heard more solo Wu albums than you and he was born in 99. No one is looking out for you.
ah, well i'll admit i don't think i've seen any of his other videos so if they're doing that a lot then yeah it is kinda played out.
plus Blu got it done way better a long time ago with doin nothin

Havoc Says Mobb Deep Is On An "Indefinite Hiatus," Confirms He Blasted Prodigy On Twitter

Seems like the rumors about P being gay are true. Sucks he'll likely deny to his dying breath instead of just admitting it and moving on. Allegedly Hav stumbled across Prodigy love letters to some dude in prison lol
I don't think there's room for a "gay" gangsta rapper, but I doubt people would stop going to Prodigy shows just because of this shit.

P does look suspect pursing his lips on the The Infamous cover tho
holla~
holla~
So all of that Pretty P really was just an attempt to capitalize on the recent pretty-boy swag movement and ease himself out of the closet under a veil of a vie for relevancy.

hahah, preciate it too fam
If P came out, I'd still regard his level of spits between Hell on Earth and Murda Muzik as legendary. You can't take that from a dude.
This is madness.
This is madness.
Uh, who remastered this GZA? Seems like they just turned on bass boost and let it ride. Dunno.
EDIT: Havoc being a bitch. If P is gay, good for him, but I don't see it.
So much truth. Pillage is a classic. Criminally underrated.

How was Wu-Massacre received? I literally remember nothing surrounding the release of that album.

It was basically a fan service mixtape that they charged for because Only Built 2 was hot at the time.

How about Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang?
WTF, I know I heard these projects, why can't I remember them?

SVWT wasn't as well received as Only Built2 but I thought it was pretty good. The chanting outro left the biggest impression on me, goosebumps first time I heard it, too hype for an outro.
they were unmemorable
I've definitely done a 180 on the song since I first heard it.
Well more like a 90, but still.

Really good interview as well. Did Jay Elect really ghostwrite Queens Get the Money off "untiteld"?

CL2 had come out the year before and really revived the Wu to a degree. The first single featured Ghost/Rae/Meth and was pretty hot, so when word came out that the three would be doing a project together everyone was hyped. Then the album art work leaked and people got even more hyped.
Ayo remember the Seven style promo the album had, with each member portrayed as a serial killer? That was dope as fuck. Then the first single (Our Dreams) came out and it was weak. Everything has to be aimed at women, god damn...
Anyway, the actual album had mixed reviews but overall most Wu heads felt it was rushed, and not the project fans were promised. Verses were tacked on to mixtape beats. Multiple remixes of old tracks, tracks released ages ago, horribly mastered/engineered, too many skits, etc.
Personally as a Wu head, the album has some dope shit on it, but overall feels like a throwaway. Plus it gave us this classic:
