    Don't ever admit you don't know who Wu Tang is in public. GZA (pronounced Jiz-ah). Your next homework assignment is to learn all the members of Wu Tang, all the solo albums the put out. Start building up a new playlist of respectable and influential rappers.

    Tha GZA and ODB are cousins! As for the GZA (formally known as the Genius so his name is pronounced JIZZAH) I think he holds a doctorate in physics or something so he is smart for REAL!!! First MC was Method Man, second was Gza then Ghstface Killah, Killah Priest and RZA (Wu Tang's creator and producer and GZA's cousin). This is actually two songs, when the beat changes the second part is called "The Fourth Chamber"

You go anywhere in the world and you will see people rocking their gear.....

    This is Shadowboxin/4thChamber. Video version only. Two different songs mixed together for the one video. Shadowboxin song is Gza feat. Method Man and 4th Chamber is Gza feat. Ghostface Killah, Killah Priest, and Rza. Both songs are from the Gza-Liquid Swords album. Very dope album. Don't sleep. Rappers in video order Method Man, Gza, (Shadowboxin) then Ghostface Killah, Killah Priest, Rza (4th Chamber). Not sure why they did the video with two songs. maybe two different videos wasn't in the budget. But the video is dope either way. Glad you decided to educate yourself to the "Wu". Better late than ever. But you have a long way to go young man. Never seen a video of yours before, and hopefully I will see you seek out more gems like this. It will benefit you. trust. Peace to all, and stay safe

The whole Liquid Swords album is a must listen eargasm for any lover of hip-hop, plain and simple. And nobody says "Gee zee ay". It's "Jiz-ah", plain and simple.
    Also, the "Why did Judas rat to the Romans while Jesus slept?" sounded familiar because the music video includes the 4th Chamber that you reacted to from the album two weeks before this.

    I have so many requests for you! All of Enter the Wu (36 Chambers). And if you like Wu, you may like Mobb Deep. I can almost guarantee you've heard at least one of their tracks (Shook Ones Pt. II). The Infamous is a classic album. Almost every track is hot fire. I recommend Survival Of The Fittest, Eye for an Eye, Give Up The Goods off that album. On Hell on Earth, my jams are Drop a Gem on 'Em, G.O.D. Pt. III, Hell on Earth. Their subject matter is pretty heavy but the East Coast in the 90s was top notch. Nas' It Was Written (The Message, Affirmative Action, If I Ruled the World) was amazing too. SO many classics.
