GZA You have no idea how high you are on my list and how much you're the reason I I rap the way I do now. I put you right up there with Nas, Eminem, Rakim, Kane, and Black Thought, Canibus, etc. You're the favorite of 90's intellectual Hip-Hop heads. Still waiting for the next album.

word up brother! You seen the GZA at NPR Tiny Desk? OMFG! Recommended If you cant find it on RUclips it is the start of our Oldskool Playlist. Light and Love fellow #OGS! 🙏
On everything bro, one of the coldest of all time. Didn’t grow up with this music but I’m glad I can appreciate it and not get caught up with the mainstream garbage today. Peace god, hopefully dark matter is coming out in the next few years
The Wu got me into kung fu, world philosophy and world warrior cultures from Musashi to Shaka Zulu. 42 years old, self employed black daoist and antiques dealer still bumping the Wu in 2021!
I use to work at this gas station overnight and blast the Gza album and at the time my white friends didn't understand what they were talking about but now they know every word. Time changes alot
They don't make em like this no more. The Griselda camp, 38 Spesh, Dza, Roc Marciano, RJ Payne, Dave East & TDE the closest we getting to the Golden Era again
Man…the lyrical precision, metaphors, wordplay, and deepness on this track is on another level. I remember bumping this in high school. Listening to this as an adult gives me a whole other perspective. Unfortunately, hip hop like this no longer exists.
yo it was so ill how other Wu members show up in the videos....that used to always get me hyped.....meth, rza, masta killa, rae, ugod......fot this classic Gza record. There was something in the air during this era of the wu.....a great refreshing sound and imagery.
This song is not only great because of the beat and the rhythm but, also because it tells a vivid story about life in the streets . It's one thing to be able to talk about the streets but, it's something else when you can make your audience feel like they're actually there in the ghetto and, put it to a good beat . Wutang Clan took rap to a whole new level .
It's amazing to me that even though sometimes there are language and cultural barriers....some artist are able to penetrate that and reach their listeners...that's when you know the movement is real...✊✊
Damn bro, I remember watching Rap City back in 94 and heard this shit. I lived between Fordham and Kingsbridge and right on Fordham next the Grand concourse there was MusicFactory. I made my moms take me to the record shop to pick this single and also Shadowboxin single. Man I miss them days when all I had was one Gemini turntable and one old ass Gemini mixer.

I appreciate your oppinion and I`m glad to know that there are big wave of rappers on a scene who wouldn`t let hip hop become a music for old farts.
@dj qb Who is that dope american mc? Could you tell me which modern rappers are on your own A-list? I`d like to listen to something new, but I stuck in new english school, this sound is corresponding close with my vision of hip hop evolution.
Best hip hop album hands down. I have so many memories in high school getting stoned and listening to this CD on repeat. In 2016, GZA performed this entire album at a small concert in San Diego for just $5.00. That was awesome.
This should of have got million views this is one of my favorite tracks off the album the whole album is dope but this one takes me back to them cold snowy Winters in RI . CLASSIC
Doubt we will ever witness another group like the Wu. They are the best to ever do it.
