Was “IRON VACATION” off Supreme Clientele OG tracklist actually “WHAT YOU IN FO?”
Something I always thought was true.
01. One
02. Cobra Clutch
03. Malcolm
04. Mighty Healthy
05. Apollo Kids (ft. Raekwon)
06. Windpipe (ft. RZA & ODB)
07. In The Rain
08. Nutmeg (ft. RZA)
09. Thermastat (ft. Ray Luger)
10. Wu Banga 101 (ft. GZA, Cappa, Masta & Rae)
11. Pain (ft. Beretta 9 & Superb)
12. Ghost Deini (ft. Superb)
13. Iron Vacation (ft. Wu-Tang Clan)
The OG SC has this track listed at the end; a supposed ode to ghost being locked up at the time. I figured this track was tacked on due to ghost being gone to finish the album. It never releases but we have some details on it:
Members of the Wu-Tang Clan are recording a tribute to colleague Ghostface Killah, who's facing a three-month stretch behind bars. The song, "Iron Vacation," will be featured on his upcoming solo album, Supreme Clientele, according to Epic Records publicist Jon Oliver. Oliver said Wu-Tang producer RZA, fellow member Raekwon the Chef and associate Cappadonna have recorded vocals so far, and others, including Method Man, may contribute. Scheduling conflicts caused by Ghostface Killah's six-month sentence for attempted robbery -- he's expected to serve three months -- have delayed the release of Supreme Clientele until late summer.
The line up is supposably rza rae cap and meth on ironvacation.
Ghost comes out, finishes album, next year another jail record drops in “what you in fo” that has exact same lineup except instead of cap we have streetlife (also the era rza was “beefing” with cap and cut him off iron flag).
I just dont think this is a coincidence. Wu never really stuck to topic too much, i dont see them making a jail record about ghost, it would be what we ended up getting for what you in fo. Also , the song features popa wu who only really made appearances on rae,ghost and wu projects.
I just think that this is for sure the same song. Could be wrong, but seeing cobra clutch and windpipe made it soundtracks/comps as well, just makes sense when the line up is pretty much exact, the topic is the same, etc.
