something about brilliant but grimy east coast hip hop from the mid 90s and dark, ty weather on a Friday afternoon seem to go together...
relistening to this stuff after all these years makes me appreciate just how good these "underground" hip hop artists and groups really were back then. There were so many of them too. From the more well known guys like Wu Tang to Big L to Atmosphere, etc, it really is interesting how that scene was such a thriving scene back then. I know there's still good "authentic" hip hop these days but definitely not nearly as much of it.
So many of these non-mainstream artists in the 90s had gold and even platinum albums.
but anyway, back to this particular album...the production is just jaw-dropping. The brooding, dark tone of the kung-fu narrative samples laid over RZA's equally dark and decidedly undeground beats, with GZA spitting incredibly witty and descriptive metaphors and philosophical questions equals musical perfection.

when I first met my wife who was then my girlfriend, I found this In her car cd collection. I knew at that moment we would be married. I would have to say this is prob my fav wu album, followed by bobby digital
Interesting that most of their releases are on cassettes (yes, cassette tapes) and not vinyl or CD. But they do release everything on MP3 format as well.
