I’m a bartender met this legend in Baltimore. The most humble amazing guy I met fr. he came with his wife. He came to the city to perform. He put me in the the list I got for free skipping the line lol. Performance was amazing, the crowd went crazy 🔥🔥🔥
Don't worry there's still exist good rapper, it's just less mainstream, i suggests you to listen Billy Woods, Mach Hommy, Griselda, Earl Sweatshirt, Mike, Jid, Denzel Denzel
Genius. The actual *precision* of his metaphors in amplifying his point in a particular bar. His economical, brutal flow. Never changed. Could listen til time ends. GZA.
My art project in high school was to redraw the album cover on a huge piece of oak tag. I'm thankful that I was smart enough to save it after all these years.
The brotha that drew that cover was Deny Cowan - who actually does penciling for a lot of Marvel and DC comics; he recently penciled a cover of Secret Wars that resembled the Liquid Swords album cover.....
Like is this the original video or not? I’m serious😅 the chorus goes so well with the video but everything else seems like a mashup of other wutang videos. (I know spot of wutang from my older bro back in the 90s but never watched any music vids besides triumph n method man shit
Most of people get attracted to this album because of the album cover, but when you listen to it, you discover that the songs are as good as the art cover is. This time when rap was still trying to find place in the mainstream was crazy, lots of gems.
8th grade flow 🔥🔥🔥. I don't know why Wutang music blew my mind away in middle school & still has a impact on my life today! I still wear Clarks and dress like the Ironman cover. Still listen to their music daily and I'm only built for a Cuban Lynxx 💫
I'm a female from South Florida born and raised and you just took me back to middle school and high-school when I LOVED NYC HIP HOP....had my momma buy some "Wallabys" too lol...dudes at school thought I was from BK...wrote lyrics ...lol would have Cyphes..memories ❤
As 90s West Coast kid, I never gave East Coast rap a chance. In my adult years, I have been catching up and can't tell enough youngsters about how good all rap was back in those days. Wu tang are one of the greats ever.
I was maybe 9 Years old ( 24 now ) when i first heard this i’m from Saudi Arabia so english wasn’t my native language but my english was kinda good but not on this track’s level , i can’t forget that feeling when i first heard him and couldn’t understand half of the things he said on the liquid sword’s album it was tooo fuckin’ smart and complicated so i literally had to break his lyrics to understand them since then he’s my favorite rapper , he introduced me to the wu tang clan a golden journey for a kid who was amazed at how hip hop was at that time lyrically INSANE - WU TANG FOREVER
красавчик бро. Мне 29. скоро 30. я так же как и ты слушаю и понимаю что мой уровень Английского языка оставляет желать лучшего... учусь в зрелом возрасте на текстах Wuuuu
So the Internet can turn it into "Wu's got talent"? Fuck that shit, We , the community are responsible for awarding the greats with such a title. Personally, I try not to compare artists because they all model themselves differently. Having a "Wu Award" would only make people try and start a new clan..... Never going to happen 🤣 be yourself & be true, you can't say fairer than that. ✌️
No disrespect to anyone's personal preference but in my opinion Liquid Swords is the best solo Wu record. Yes I said it. 1. Liquid Swords 2. Cuban Linx 3. Supreme Clientele 4. Return to da 36 Chambers: Da Dirty Version
I haven't heard this song in 10 plus years. popped on pandora today while at the gym. I must have listened to this atleast 10 times today. The genius. a true master of lyrics and beats. Never forget Wu Tang is for the kids. only wish this generation knew this.
I forgot how dope this album was. I am so thankful for growing up on WU. This album is up there with Illmatic imo. GZA was three steps ahead of everyone
I haven't seen this video in I can't believe I'm writing this 29 years to be completely honest I wasn't the biggest fan of this beat but listening to it now this track is straight 🔥 🔥🔥🔥 👐 Suuu

Still the bestest rap album in my top.
Hell yeah buddy.

This album is the soundtrack of my life!! In rhyme form!!
GZA is not called the genius for nothing, lyrics hard asf
🧠💧🧠💧💖
@Thurman Merman facts... they gave him and honorary doctorate.
flow like blood in a murder scene..
Wordplay on another level 🔥
Gza the génies. C est simple. 43 ans se morceaux de son brute me régal
"Lyrics are weak like clock radio speakers" is such an underrated line
Love that line.
Hip hop in the 90s to early 2000s. Man was it good. Even a hardcore metalhead can blast this
Have you considered my faithful servant Daniel Blake, brother of Adrian Blake. You'll find no wrong in him.
This gza album was and still is legendary
I’m a bartender met this legend in Baltimore. The most humble amazing guy I met fr. he came with his wife. He came to the city to perform. He put me in the the list I got for free skipping the line lol. Performance was amazing, the crowd went crazy 🔥🔥🔥
Never knew GZA had a wife there is not much information about him in Google
Every time I hear this song, it has me questioning how we lost our way in hip hop and got where we are today.
Don't worry there's still exist good rapper, it's just less mainstream, i suggests you to listen Billy Woods, Mach Hommy, Griselda, Earl Sweatshirt, Mike, Jid, Denzel Denzel

No worries homie Morocco x Sla
Genius. The actual *precision* of his metaphors in amplifying his point in a particular bar. His economical, brutal flow. Never changed. Could listen til time ends. GZA.
no
@@peesicle how do you object ?
He could read the instructions on how to build a wardrobe, and it would be a hit.
@@yeweyewe6247 His vocabulary is limited obviously..
@@soramirez5473 do you mean GZA or that alie84 guy?
RZA producing was ahead of his time for real his creativity really made everything come to life
I was instantly addicted to this track back in '95. Must've listened this all 24/7.
Right, it is an addiction!
@@magaan4717 still holds up. Even got better if I compare this with the trash nowadays. '90's was the era of the true masters
The artwork for this album made everybody buy it
My art project in high school was to redraw the album cover on a huge piece of oak tag. I'm thankful that I was smart enough to save it after all these years.
You ain't lying
@@michaeldantone3676 I put respect on dat💯
The brotha that drew that cover was Deny Cowan - who actually does penciling for a lot of Marvel and DC comics; he recently penciled a cover of Secret Wars that resembled the Liquid Swords album cover.....
I remember when saving up to get that album artwork was everything. Outkast's album work as well.
See kids this is hip hop
the beat and the hook merge in this unexpectedly amazing combination
So damn good
Designer shit
Like is this the original video or not? I’m serious😅 the chorus goes so well with the video but everything else seems like a mashup of other wutang videos. (I know spot of wutang from my older bro back in the 90s but never watched any music vids besides triumph n method man shit
This is the official original music video.
@@nate_p416the video perfects this. Shit was literally an INSTANT classic when it dropped.
No matter what age GZA has been, he always look 40 years old.
1 of the greatest songs in world history!
''I represent from midnight to high noon''
- GZA
That means all day
One of the best albums of all time, not just rap. Such a unique and well executed concept.
Don't forget to learn your Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth
One of the best and most underrated hip hop track of all time. This will forever be legendary
bumping this for years!
You have to b cuz Wu-Tang is 4evah! the saga continues son....
GZA Genius! The best poet of all time!
from 94' to 99' wu tang ruled the world this was just fire.
Most of people get attracted to this album because of the album cover, but when you listen to it, you discover that the songs are as good as the art cover is. This time when rap was still trying to find place in the mainstream was crazy, lots of gems.
Wu tang never tried to be accepted by the mainstream. Those of us who were hooked with 36 chambers know it.
Tan terror kulan pa Ma
Nah no one cared about the CD cover back then. Only DJs had vinyl. The lyrics were next level and that’s peak RZA production
8th grade flow 🔥🔥🔥. I don't know why Wutang music blew my mind away in middle school & still has a impact on my life today! I still wear Clarks and dress like the Ironman cover. Still listen to their music daily and I'm only built for a Cuban Lynxx 💫

Crazy that those outfits are still DOPE ASF NOWADAYS!!!!

Millions bought this album. It truly helped defin hip-hop. It's sad this generation will never know the impact. Only fly by night rappers now...
This is without a doubt the best album ever recorded. 25yrs ago. I hope GZA releases something as incredible as this again.
Everrrrr
@@pamelal2409 rrrrrrrrrr haha
I love the subtle beatboxing in the background. Its a nice touch.
One of the illest rap joints of all time. Gza is definitely a mad GENIUS!
As 90s West Coast kid, I never gave East Coast rap a chance. In my adult years, I have been catching up and can't tell enough youngsters about how good all rap was back in those days. Wu tang are one of the greats ever.
In the 90's I listened to the Wu, the Lox and Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg...
Im surprised this only has 3ish million views. It’s a classic that everyone knows.

I'm English and I can only understand about 1/4 of it buddy!
I first heard 36 chambers when I was 20, 10 years have gone by and I've been bumping Wu on the daily ever since!
SUUUUUU from Portugal
GZA's pen is always raw, brutal but profound. Makes you go within while bobbin ya head.
True wu tang fan since 94. I'm 42. 1 of my fav of all ⏲️
His albums are all classics. Knowledge, wisdom, equals understanding.
Wu Tang Clan really needs to establish a WU award given out to bonafide certified Lyricist MCs.
So the Internet can turn it into "Wu's got talent"?
Fuck that shit, We , the community are responsible for awarding the greats with such a title.
Personally, I try not to compare artists because they all model themselves differently. Having a "Wu Award" would only make people try and start a new clan..... Never going to happen 🤣 be yourself & be true, you can't say fairer than that. ✌️
Finally VEVO dropped good digital remastering of this music video!
The first CD I bought when I was like 20, got me to jam all their classics.. 33, jamming it now..
You bought your fist cd 13 years ago? What country are you from? I got my first CD in 1991.
The title of this album alone is more original, conceptual and thoughtful than 99% of today’s content
Best solo Wu-Tang album everrrrrr. Genius!
Timeless, legendary. Still untouchable in 2021.
Facts
Great musician, rapper, father and I just love the legacy. This man is a example for most out there.
One of the most unique wickest beats of of our time. Wu-Tang is truly original
Thanks for this classic, Liquid Swords is one of the greatest rap albums of all time, Wu-Tang Forever!!!
Perfect fall/winter album ❄️ 🍁
I bought this album in college. Still bangs today.
WHEN THE MCS CAME TO LIVE OUT THE NAME‼️‼️‼️🗣️🗣️🗣️
It’s 2023 I’m still bumping old school raps
"I'm low key like sea shells" 🔥🔥🔥
Bought this on cassette tape when it came out and straight into the Sony Walkman Mega Bass on 3 and non stop listening. GZA lyrical master
This shit is and will ALWAYS be better than ANY new young IG rappers. This is knowledge
GZA "The Genius" educating lyrically.
GZA the Genius!
This track will never not amaze me. It will never not grab me. So deep it's picked up on radios in tunnels!
Now This Is What I'm Talking About Real True Hip-Hop Rappers I Grew Up Listening Too Based On Reality Word On The Streets.
Who said there was no intellectuals in the hood! Gza is called Genius for a reason! Shout out to all the Five Percenters!
No disrespect to anyone's personal preference but in my opinion Liquid Swords is the best solo Wu record. Yes I said it.
1. Liquid Swords
2. Cuban Linx
3. Supreme Clientele
4. Return to da 36 Chambers: Da Dirty Version
Fax
Wait so ur just gonna forget Ironman-Ghostface Killah? Nah fam
@@michaelalvarez716 I didn't forget it. I just listed my top 4. You just may disagree with what I put, but that's MY top 4 solo Wu albums!!!!
@@luciousthomas6141 yeah it's respectable can't argue just I think ironman tops supreme clientele
Personally Tical is #1
people don't rate the production on this album enough, Bars were mental but the beats grow every time i listen to this masterpiece.
He flows like blood on a murder scene 🐐🐐🐐
GZA....on the possible impossible mission. Mad respect for one of the most potent intellectual fire powers in the game. Legendary legend.
So deep it's picked up on radios in tunnels
This still bangs as hard as it did originally and destroys everything out there today period.
It's cool that Rza helped all the brothers make their solo tracks. all in the same style.
When you put an insane beat with insane lyrics this is what happens.
I haven't heard this song in 10 plus years. popped on pandora today while at the gym. I must have listened to this atleast 10 times today. The genius. a true master of lyrics and beats. Never forget Wu Tang is for the kids. only wish this generation knew this.
Now this is hip hop💯💥👍
Old hip-hop is truly amazing. This album is amazing, from production to flow.
Gza killed this album I remember every body pumping this album definitely had dudes in the zone
Classic
136 vs 135 those was the days let's battle for cash see who's son's who
If you reading this and you know 4hrs vs 12 boy
Method man was like the fifty cent of wu Tang
💐💐💐 Long over due this album is easily in my top ten of 1995 if not of all time in my opinion, the conversation needs to be had!!!
The shogun intro makes this hit so much harder
Saw this song performed live in 1996 at Lalapalooza in NYC. Was absolutely incredible and one of the best memories of my life!
The Liquid Swords LP, the greatest WU project ever.
Industry …. Is blooming
Know the ledge. "Time never was when man was not"
Peace to the Gods🙌🏽🎵🎶
Once I listened to this song, I was instantly hooked
This is hip hop at its finest. 26 years on and it sounds even better than when it was released! 👐🏼👐🏼
I remember when this song came out in 95, I just fkn loved it as I do today .
I forgot how dope this album was. I am so thankful for growing up on WU. This album is up there with Illmatic imo. GZA was three steps ahead of everyone
Man I wish and prayi could back to 90s when hip hop had substance😏
GZA's rapping goes hard but not enough people appreciate RZA's production.
When the MCs cameeee
To live out the nameee
and to perform
Some had to snort cocaine to act insane
This never ceases to amaze me.
If there was a Mount Rushmore of best lyricists/rappers, GZA's head would be on there.
Omg omg !! Best best song from the Genius !! LIQUID SWORDS ❤ALL THE WAY !! All DAY
Just Watched the Liquid Swords WU Tang Saga Episode Yooo who Else here can i Get a Suuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!
I flow like the blood 🩸 on a murder scene .. 👀
“ but when I swing my sword they all choppable “ this made me tear when I heard it. Like who says that
Where were these great joints all the time... Classic
I'm here because of Industry on HBO.
Wu Tang flowed so effortlessly over RZA’s sublime beats…true legends
Word to mother. Wu forever dude
Kids should be shown this and then they can make their own path in life. The genius spits in 2024.
The brains of the camp.. 😎 Mans got more barz than mars.
Still a banger 1/23/24
I'm 26 and I had the CD since I was a teen
I haven't seen this video in I can't believe I'm writing this 29 years to be completely honest I wasn't the biggest fan of this beat but listening to it now this track is straight 🔥 🔥🔥🔥 👐 Suuu
“Lyrics are weak like Clock radio Speakers “ is the most underrated diss bars ever 😂
A masterpiece
