After reading most of the negative comments, I see why Gza and most of the clan say "Fuck Wutang corp"...

apparently method man agrees with Rza...

"We got some bases covered, but our biggest problem right now with the material—not enough Rae, not enough Ghost, not enough GZA. Right now, Rae isn’t on anything, and Ghost I think is on two joints, and that’s as much as I can give you without saying too much, and I think I gave you too much already."

What can you tell me about the 20th anniversary album?

Meth: Nothin’. Nothin’. You’d have to talk to RZA and them, like I said, I just go in and I spit on the tracks and shit, and I break out. You know, it started off—and I’m about to give you some real shit—it started off shaky dog. Niggas didn’t like the concepts that RZA was comin’ with at first, or this whole overall look for the album. He wanted it to be light, we wanted it to be dark. Bring it back to that first LP. He was more like, more or less, we’ve been there and done that. So this is why it’s taking so long, because we gotta find a common denominator between light and dark, ’cause I agree with him, you can’t have a full album worth of dark shit, you gotta have some light there.

Some hope?

Meth: Yeah, but I don’t want to make it seem like, damn, these niggas went and became Hare Krishnas, Dali Lamas and shit. So right there, there was a lot of light. But when we went overseas, it started to get a little darker—a lot darker, you know what I mean. We got some bases covered, but our biggest problem right now with the material—not enough Rae, not enough Ghost, not enough GZA. Right now, Rae isn’t on anything, and Ghost I think is on two joints, and that’s as much as I can give you without saying too much, and I think I gave you too much already.
I just want the people to know why it comes when it does come. We’re just trying to find a common denominator between light and dark. But just know this—Meth is on damn near every—matter fact, I think I am on every joint. And these fuckin’ verses, I’m tellin’ you my dude. I’m saying shit like, [raps]

“I ain’t tryna be no D-Boy, I love music, I’m a B-Boy / Are you the undercover or the decoy / I’m heavy with the beat, trouble T-Boy / A pit with no muzzle about to pop your bubble like a [inaudible] / Too much marijuana got me p-noid / I’m killin instrumentals with that ‘All So Simple Can It Be’ boy / Shout to Lil Cease, B.I.G. boy / And funk Dr. Spock, I mean Redman, that’s not Leonard Nimoy.”

I’m tellin’ you, I’m hard-bodied, dawg. Trust me, just listen to some of these features, you’ll see exactly where I’m at with it and how I’m gonna come, ’cause I’m back to cadence. My flows are gonna be switchin’ all over the place—dudes will not be able to keep up.

That's funny that he said more energy is needed from Ghostface, Raekwon, GZA because Ghostface and Raekwon have probably released more solo albums and mixtapes outta the group LOL. For the fans to get that 90's Wu sound, the Wu should do a album without The RZA because it's obvious he's on some different shit and the group members wanna keep the album hardcore if it gets made like the first album.

Agreed.

That all sounds positive especially the mention of it got a lot darker.
From this perspective it's easy to say that if everyone took a page out of Mef's Book
That energy could easily be rekindled as Mef is making it sound like it could be a competition in the studio.

I've always wondered the looks on faces when they we're recording Wu-Forever say.

RZA beats aren't fun anymore.

Ghostface raps like every other NYC rapper now. Simple bar structure & rhyme schemes, straight forward statements. And he sounds like Cappa half the time.

Meth is still okay, but doesn't sound he's having fun anymore.

U-God is better, but still U-God.

MK is tired.

GZA is tired.

Raekwon is tired.

RZA sounds like a completely different person. And not for the better.

Cappadonna is NOT NEEDED ON A WU-TANG CLAN ALBUM. BUT THANKS.

Deck is kinda back to his old self. But still a far cry from "Socrates philosophies." He just talks about generic street shit now.

I'll take another @@@ or @@@1/2 album from the Wu, absolutely. But let's not kid ourselves. They're done. They don't perform anything past '97 in concert. (Except for maybe Gravel Pit.)

I mean, the past three albums they were insisting "WU-TANG IS BACK" all over...did it happen? You really think it'll happen the fourth time?

there is a lot of validity that can be found in this

Why dont they just make a double ying n yang type album.. light and dark? Thats how Wu were from the start!! To me it sounds like Rae, Ghost and perhaps deck still wana prove to the streets they the hardest especially Rae. It kinda seems childish now. A wu album with less Rae wouldnt bother me at all, cant stand listening tohim spit so much garbage. One ting I do. Respect about his rhymes Is acknowledgement to immigrants , but side from that we aint missin m u ch without Rae. Wu tang fix up and just make a fuking ying n yang album, youre grown men you have a responsibility to drop jewels along with your harder street shit cos like Odb said Wu tang iz for the children.

100%

At least as a producer anyway but yeah it's pretty obvious he's become Bobby Digital full time, that persona is wack
