Still no idea.

This is like asking whether black sabbath or Led Zeppelin had a greater influence on 'heavy metal'.

I love Liquid Swords but I am still partial to Ghostface's flow..., just my opinion. GZA, then the CHEF round out my top three.

I've only seen one video of them in the 90s and I remember ghostface killah. I also know of Ol'dirty bastard from that mariah carrey song they played abillion times commercially.

That's it.

I think the vid was Triumph now that it was mentioned.

Triumph was a huge vid, being the signature single from the second album it was also the first time all members got a proper verse on the same track. everyone dropping memorable lines and some memorable images (rza with wings, mef on the bike in flames...)

When you think of his movie Ghost Dog, it seems logical.

And GZA ftw, btw. I just listened to Cold World on the way home from work...ironically enough.

the tune that got me listening to them, also muchmusic use to play it all the time.....

I used to play RZA- Bobby Digital over and over again... simply an amazing production. GZA- liquid swords, Method Man- Tical, Redman- Darez is a Darkside as well as Muddy Waters, Ghostface- Supreme Clientele and Ironman, Raekwon-Only Built 4 Cuban Linx all get honorable mention.

Seriously though, what happened to the music? The early to mid 90s were a great time for music, in the hip hop world you had Wu, Tribe Called Quest, Nas, and the G funk era, and in the alternative world there was Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, etc. And the thing was both types of music were listened by all the same people. Seems like something went wrong in the late 90s...music had to be a potential "club hit" for it to get any air. Dang marketers.

A little treat :

Only Ghostface can rap about the same shit over and over and still sound cool, lol.


Posted by M_Tektronik on May-17-2008 23:29:

I use to be a huge Wu tang fan to me all of the original crew had an edge to it.


I never liked any of Meth albun but he has very good flow to me my fav album form them were

- Only Bult for Cuban Linx - Rae & Ghost - Best Album ever!!!!!
- Supreme Clintele - TO me this is also one the of the best Solo Album from any Wu member
- Enter the 36 Chamber - all time fave for many
- Ironman - This to me was to notch shit, i Still remember Wild Flower. lOl
- Bobby Digital - this was a good album IMO - beats were very sharp.


Of course the had many honorable mentions, but these are my fav!!

thank you jenny. stole te words straight out of my mouth.


as in hard skill, ghostface takes the cake. he rhymnes off beat in an incredible fashion, its totally unexplainable his style.


Posted by italarmo on May-18-2008 15:54:

OMG!!! I can't believe there's a thread on the WU!!!! I was a HUGE fan of 36 chambers (as i'm sure alot of ppl were)!!! GHOSTFACE KILLAH is by far the greatest Wu member!!! However it comes close to Meth and RZA! As soon as I read the name of the thread, i started chanting "And if you want beef, then bring the ruckus, Wu-Tang Clan ain't nuttin ta fuck with! Straight from the motherfucking slums that's busted, Wu-Tang Clan ain't nuttin ta fuck with!!" LMAO!!

2 of my fave songs...






this is SUCH a good thread!


Posted by Owen M on May-18-2008 16:40:

am I the only one that thinks Method Man should have stuck to guest appearances on other peoples tracks?
His albums are all doo doo butter...seemed like he kept his best stuff for other peoples songs.

...love GZA's voice.

fav wu-song ever. sounds alot better sped up a few bpms.
ghostface - cherchez la ghost

There's a sweet remix of that on the Hidden Darts album using Taana Gardner's 'Heartbeat'...probably more recognizable from Ini Kamoze's 'Here Comes the Hotstepper'. Dopeness!

the track that this used, "Cherchez la Femme" was on the Studio 54 soundtrack. i grew up listening to wu, so years later it is always strange to hear the tracks which inspired them

Ah yes that's right..my bad. Couldn't remember the original sample.



edit: That's one main reason why I like paying for albums...liner notes and production credits!

shit, i totally forgot i saw them last year at exit fest in serbia. there was around 30.000 people so me and my sister didnt even try to go close to the stage but boy oh boy were they good. and they loved it. after every song meth would repeat "whoa, this is unreal" or "man im coming back here as soon as possible".

here are some pics lol



me going TO the gig lol


serbian sign for wu tang clan and my sis all up in the wesside
