    One thing about this album, the start of that intro is an absolute fucking cunt if u forget ur player is turned up real loud n put on headphones/earphones. I did it full Vol the other day n it was death. I immediately took the earphones out to c if my ears were still working properly. Today when I put it on I shuddered when I heard that shit.

    Also that lame solo track where rza tries to 'drop knowledge' and some ho sings some stupid Rasta shit shouldn't have been on this album. It's the only song I don't like.

    they didnt call it a Clan album, they called it a Wu-Tang album. pay attention numb nuts. Mathematics already came out and said they left the Clan off the album because it can't be a Clan album without U-God on it. Whether they did that out of respect for U-God or because some legal bullshit, who cares.

    tell em Forensikz. also those two lists about singing on the tracks and just a couple members, cant leave off "Can It Be All So Simple". Also, the solo songs on group albums and other members solo albums. KP on Gza's album, Ghostface on Raekwons, U-God on WTF, etc...these niggas dont know shit about Wu. They just want to complain about everything that comes out now(in this case) or the exact opposite, the wu dickriders who refuse to say anything negative at all. its usually one of the extremes in either direction. Very few sensible fans who understand what the middleground is, or even know a lot of the history behind Wu-Tang. They just start popping off at the mouth. And then you got niggas acting like Rza cant produce great beats anymore, what they dont understand is how Rza has evolved and is constantly experimenting, looking for that next great sound. If he produced the same style shit over and over then the same people would be complaining its too repetitive and he is stuck in the past. He can still produce those old school bangers if he wants, he aint suddenly just forget how, he chose to evolve and move on.

    Rza doesnt want to produce good music anymore. BOAP was his last good album. ABT was forgetable. With that being said I would pick a new WTC album all produced by Math rather than Rza nowadays.

    word x, i just dont get it. in the span of less than a month we got a SUPER solid masta killa album thats on par with his original and a good lil wu compilation produced by math and people still find ways to complain. its not like this shit was awaited as the 2nd coming like wu forever, we didnt even know it was dropping until it was announced like 3 months ago. if rza made these beats people would be happy.. but because its math theirs a built in bias that means it must be second tier. i mean calling fly navigation or people say as WACK? cmon now...

    i missed ugod too but ill live until the next release.

    It grown on me aswell. At first i was listening only to frozen, why why why and hood fo bang.

    Now im listening to fast and furious, frozen, people say, why why why, g'd up, hood go bang and my only one so its like 7/11 tracks.
    I think i will end to listen the full project from the beginning to the end. Very strong project from Mathematics.

    finally got the album in the mail. Mathematics' strongest project so far. some great beats on there, Meth's in top form. some of the cuts on here are a very worthy addition to the wu catalogue

    I'm with Antonelli and Forensikz on this one. lately we have had little to complain about. graned, it's been a quiet year for the wu so far with few releases from the camp. but 'The Wild' was a great rebound from 'FILA' for Raekwon. imo he updated his sound in a good way on his latest release. And the 4th quarter releases 'Loyalty And Royalty' and 'The Saga Continues' are good to very good albums. Masta Killa's album's bar 2 songs is up there with his debut album to me. 'The Saga Continues' has some bangers (soulful cuts!), Math definitely did his thing. I'll probably post a review of 'The Saga Continues' in a few days now that I can listen to it on proper speakers

    on a side note I love how we are still getting so many Sean Price features. R.I.P. to the Gawd. may he rest in palaces.

    I still need to give this a second spin.

    Don't get me wrong...I'm definitely happy for anyone that is feeling this album. But the comments about people who don't like the album bitching after we get so many new releases blah blah blah is some bullshit. I'm always excited for some new wu material. I really liked the new mk. I just don't think the production on the saga continues was where it could have been. Someone mentioned if this was all rza, those of us not feeling the album would feel different. That's also bullshit. Math is one of my favorite producers, wu or otherwise (for reference my all time favorite is premier). Math has a track record of not carrying solid production on his compilations, though. His best work imo has always been the one off beats he makes for other albums.

    I wouldn't say tsc is total garbage. It's ok...mostly listenable. Maybe I'll like it a bit more after listening to it some more. But we have cats on here beating their dicks about how ill it is, bashing everybody whose pants aren't around they ankles too, talking about never being satisfied with any releases. I think some people have the bar set WAY too low for some of the newer releases. You're wearing shit colored glasses from some of the older, more trash albums comparing to those...if course this is going to sound better than a hot ass pile of garbage...but that does not make this (or other recent albums) a dope album.

    I like people say and lesson learnd...and a few other tracks on there. But there are some real weak tracks too. Overall, it was pretty disappointing.

    I'm not trying to start a pissing match at all, but understand just because some of us aren't feeling this, doesn't mean it's hate just to hate.

    I'm looking forward to the spark, that sounds amazing. I know there are emcees and producers in the wu camp that still can release quality shit. Im optimistic we will get fire sooner or later

    I think it's pretty good but ultimately forgettable. There really isn't a song where I think a few years from now I'll have to keep putting it on a playlist. But there are nice tracks on here. If you were bamboozled by Rza's bullshit(just about everything he says is bullshit nowadays) and believed this was an official album or was going to be similar to the feel of a genuine Wu album, I can see the disappointment. For a Math compilation by MC's around 50 now who haven't been able to legitimately work well as a unit for a long time, it's nice and shows even at half speed they really are better than a lot out there. I'm really not a fan of Math full albums as his beats tend to be low energy for a whole sit thru.

    As usual they have made mystifyingly stupid decisions such as breaking a Rza song that could have been good into a few skits and ending with 2 skits in a row that detract from it. It really is an album that sounds better after a few listens tho
