Damn that one rocks, guess someone could re-create the beat with the sample if they wanted to and see if this fits. Martin should've been smarter, fucking idiot playing it over twitter. Just sell it on ebay or something. He could've made a lot of money and made the fans happy.

So this supports my feelings of false advertisement and this whole NFT thing being a freaking scam! And since they likely played a remix, it was not even the original tape they gave out to play. How scummy.

MY GOD
I just heard Rainy Dayz 2 and I need to apologise to Cilva... this track is legendary. The beat, the references to the oroginal and Ghostface on it is what made me feel like I listened to Wu back in the days... My God...

It’s called:

Hail, Snow & Earthquakes [Rainy Dayz II].

and it took me 8 months to get Blue Raspberry on it and tried 6 different vocalists on it in the meantime and none of them worked.

Truly a beautiful track, transcendental. Hope to hear it one of these years! lol. I removed 0.163 days

Glad you were able to eventually get her

This has to be better than Wu Tang Forever. I don't think people want to admit it because Cilva is the main producer on Shaolin

Not because of Cilva, but there's no chance this can be better or get close to Forever. The way the project was set up, so guys not rapping to the beats that Cilva ended up using, guys not in the studio together, already a bit older so less of that youthful energy and hunger. In 97 they still had that unique sound and evident from the sampler and leaked tracks, there's some classic sound mixed with some new flavor whereas 90% of Forever was distinct Wu.

Also finally, from what we've heard, there's yet to be a song with like 5 or more, not even 4 and let alone all 8. Forever had 9 tracks with 5 or more guys! The 3 full songs we have are two duets and one solo as far as Wu members go. Then the Uzi song is likely just RZA & U-God, there's a Cappadonna solo, the butchers is 2 Wu and 3 appearances, etc. So with 23 full songs maximum, there's at least 8 interludes including intro / outro, we have knowledge of 1/4th. It's not conclusive yet, but 1/3rd of the whole Forever album, including interludes, are proper group tracks. It's safe to assume this will feature much less if any tracks with more than 3/4 members.

To me that is enough to disqualify this even as a group album, but more of a mixtape and like something RZA threw together like The Saga Continues.

Lol. You sure do seem obsessed over a ‘mixtape’ then dude.

sittin on the couch brushin my waves, countin my stacks, listenin to the old school rainy days
wallos on, suede tassels, bitch on a hammock, waiting in the back, eatin cashews

ghost paintin the picture like only he can. Rae’s sittin back in foreign Azures, beat cuts out while blue sings her ass off over the sound of rolling thunder, deck drops in to talk his shit over blue harmonizing and that haunting violin, all closed out with a rainstorm, that same haunting violin and those beautiful piano keys. Look at this shit man, it’s the bomb shit man…I can hear the effort and attention to detail throughout the entire song, this isn’t just some sample looped wit some drums slapped on top. It’s glorious, feel like I’m listening to a movie

not sure why some people on here are hatin so hard. It’s pretty simple, appreciate the art and be grateful that you’re fortunate enough to hear it or don’t. Take the negativity that way. ESPECIALLY if you didn’t come outta pocket to hear it.
​shit I thought I’d be the same age as what Shyheim was studyin when Rae called him by the time this got released. I took some solace in thinkin eventually my grandson or great grandson would get to hear it and experience Wu like I did when I was a kid. Obviously not exactly the same way but damn close.

Thank you Trinking. Songs like these literally took months if not years, so they’d become epic experiences rather than just a song.
