Yikes

I could do worse...a lot worse.

 

[Pinko Marx]

First album I ever owned

But this is the album that really got me into Hip-Hop

Got me into hip-hop:

Got me back into hip-hop:

 

[Pinko Marx]

I was a huge Kanye stan right up until around the time Graduation dropped. Then he started getting too big of an ego and shit.

What made you get this? Just liked everything you heard or something? Just curious because most people who first album that got them into hip-hop are really well known and popular albums.

It was the first time I was reminded of 90s. At the time I didn't really care about music all that much because everything I heard on the radio was just not what I wanted. But after I heard auditorium. It just kinda clicked. Although I didn't enjoy the rest of the album as much.

Kinda sick atm, so dunno if that made sense or not.

Ah okay, I can see that. Also, yeah Auditorium is the only song on that I really love off that album. It's been awhile since I've gone back to it though.

 

[Esch]

first hip hop album i got was this:

still the best one ever. Some kids on a metal/electronic board i listened to said it was amazing.

 

[m3k]

i just felt like ive always liked rap cause i always liked the big songs that came out over the year... specially 92 onwards, ice cube and snoop etc
early highschool in 95,96,97 with puffy, 2pac, bone thugs... high school and local friends only listened to rap

but it wasnt until i borrowed wu tang forever that i had a cd i listened to for ages... lol i didnt know what the fuck they were talking about sometimes lol but after i knew that cd well, i think i was more invested in hiphop

 

[cryptic]

All my friends were into rap but this is the first album I felt drawn to.

 

[Esch]

real talk i also liked death is certain too back in the day. I just dont feel it at all nowadays. I loved me some rappity rap back in the day

I just put it back on the mp3 player and ran through it. To me it seems the words hold more weight as I get older and it just seems like an absolute classic, especially compared to what I'm buying from what's available now, shame.

yea also, i gota trigger finger when it comes to something i "have" to have. ill have the strangest urge to just buy something. i remember buying blops 1, enzo called me a dumbass, and i stick by his statement, i really shouldn't of bought it.

 

[WanderingWind]

Proper fight club mix?

As opposed to the improper one I made you?

Oh, shit. My bad, man. You did, I fucked up there. It's on my iPod, but I only got to listen to half of it. It's going to be my fight music for tomorrow though.

This beat is just too good

That's why I fucks with you man. You got the best taste in shit. Absolutely my favorite Wu song ever.

 

[HiResDes]

That's super close, but for me it's Assassination Day and Winter Warz. That shit used to play in my head as I was slashing through the paint in junior high basketball.

 

[WanderingWind]

Wu cycle? Wu cycle.

ODB was the best member. He never spit a boring verse. Even if they were always ignant as hell, he was always entertaining.

 

[HiResDes]

Ghostface is the best member, I no longer think it's close.

 

[Esch]

Great song, but its CREAM for the group and Swordsman for dolo cuts.

Ghostface objectively best member.

This has to be my personal favorite Wu song, never forget the first time I heard it, after finally getting through the long ass stupid intro. The violin coming in and the 'It's Wu motherfuckerrrs!!'...felt good man, then everyone killed the verses too

[T Dollarz]

Lol I could list favorite Wu joints forever. Dat discography.

But yeah, my shuffle is hitting all the right notes right now.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mnKNr2Tiq8 classic yeezy production right here

 

[enzo_gt]

One day I'll go back and listen to more Ghostface until he clicks since I like Bronson a lot.

Until then, from my limited Wu knowledge I'd have to say Method Man or Wu Tang Clan Ain't Nothin' To Fuck With would be my favourite songs. Been listening to Triumph a lot this past week too.

So fucking good. And yes, CREAM is probably tops most days. But damn those songs enzo listed... I'm sayin' tho...

 

[DominoKid]

my favorite Wu songs are random as hell cause i have waaaay too many. a few years ago i downloaded every track i could off Wu-Tang Corp one day.

put your hammer down
shaolin worldwide

 

[wenis]

Im not sure if this got posted yet or not, but I just saw it and it was cool


So Many Details (Remix featuring Hodgy Beats) - Toro y Moi

 

[thabiz]

I've missed the Wu-off

Damn.

 

[HiResDes]

Maybe we should bring back Wu-Wednesdays in Plug, and I was also thinking about a throwback Thursdays for a more general 90s celebration.

Times would be from say 9 p.m. to 2 a.m.

 

[NARC]

This little discussion has just inspired me to make myself a little Wu-related playlist to just sit and vibe to tonight, gonna be good.

 

[T Dollarz]

We should just bring back a strictly hip hop plug.dj in general for us purists lol

Sure any days in mind, as I also wanna try and spend some time in Music is Fun as well as my usual Pop room infiltrating every once in a while.

 

[NARC]

I read a story somewhere that ODB used to just straight up steal pages from GZA's rhyme book or some shit, then go wild and record the rhymes in his own crazy style for the track.

Clan in da front

I think RZA has talked about ODB taking other members' lines for a while now.

Yeah, it's pretty well known. He used other rappers line, but in no way does that matter to me especially cause his delivery is nothing like theirs. I wouldn't want to hear GZA spitting those rhymes ODB stole.

[The Return of]

What? Master P over DJ premier?

 

[siddx]

Blackace just make a themeless mix. Just keep throwing on whatever random track you feel like one after the other. Some drunk blackace playing in an empty club type shit.

i think this is basically just an ignorant mix though for the most part

Yeah totally agreed!
