    Default What's the deal with Legendary Weapons?

    Is it not considered one of the Wu-Tang Clan albums? Was it just an Andrew Kelly mash up?

    It wasn't a mash up but it wasn't an official Clan album either. Just a project that RZA put out through E1 similar to the Chamber Music album... Clan members on tracks with other Hip-Hop MC's. All of the music was played by a live band called The Revelations. Most of the production on both albums was by Lil' Fame (Fizzy Womack), Andrew Kelley and Noah Rubin. Bob Perry has production credits on a lot of tracks on the Chamber Music joint too.

    They're not real clan albums though, which is why they are called 'Wu-Tang - Legendary Weapons' instead of 'Wu-Tang Clan - Legendary Weapons'.

    The full Clan doesn't actually appear on either album too...

    Chamber Music doesn't have any Masta Killa, Meth, GZA or Cappa (or ODB obviously)

    Legendary Weapons doesn't have GZA or Masta Killa (or ODB)



    Peace!

    The clan members that are on legendary weapons and chamber music all had nice verses. But when it comes to actually trying for an official LP they sound soft. Maybe they should have more collabs if that's what the difference is.

    Both of these releases were dope, Legendary Weapons slightly better maybe but the run time on both CM and LW were a little too short. The guest spots were ill too

    G Rap, AZ, Sean P, MOP...Cormega was on a track or 2 I think?

    Respect. The Clan never went anywhere. They always been the best. The best shit is just spread out...they put out so much great music. all the time. Its just doesnt always come together on one project.

    Listened to it this way after you posted it a few months ago. Worked really well so now I listen to those albums this way more than I do in the original configurations. Good looks.
    Retired.

    Legendary Weapons was definitely as good as or better than Chamber Music, wish they would do a follow up already, that is a big problem within Wu Tang, they never strike while the iron is hot.
