How many mainstream rappers put out an album with such a positive message recently?
Wu tang is the only group I can name. RZA didnt do this album to sound relevant aside from switching his sound up and making an album to give people in these times hope of a bettter tomorrow. Ok it might not of soundedasgreat as we wanted. But I take my hat off to RZA for this. He made or they made an album I could let my kids listen to half oc this and gain some jewels. RZA is aware of his responsibilty to the world. He knows music has an effect on our culture. So for me this I salute, maybe you dont cosmaybe you dont see the youts on yourblock wantIng swag like these new abc rappers, dumb down shit. Anyway this is all I mean, for me Wu has alwaysbeen more than just music they come with a strong message if they was tO just drop something relevant sound and lyric wise to me they sold out.
Thats my opinion. With 9 generals with their own agendas and fans I guess they will cater to different people.
wu always catered to me for their heart felt lyrics, their jewels and vivid lyricism , hardcore but said with such creativity not just for shock or pop value.
anyway hope you get what I say a bit more.
on a side not coming from a Raekwon chamber , I gotta say this album doesnt sound too bsd from what ive heard. But that admission only comes from if I bend my ears to a Raekwon chamber. He sounds fresh , stillhungry and I hope he does well. Cos Rae a good soul, watching him in interviews you need a dude like him this relevant rap chamber. Just dont need him to lead the Whole Wu sound into this realm but peace to Rse!
