    Ok I'll give you 97 Mentality

    The album is good, but not classic. That word gets thrown around too freely, making it meaningless.
    As for myself: I had come to the conclusion that there was nothing sacred about myself or any human being, that we were all machines, doomed to collide and collide and collide.

    This whole album brings back so many memories. For me, its perfect. Wouldn't skip a song and would listen to it anytime.

    Only a few years ago Hip Hop purists may have felt superior listening to hard core while their less enlightened companions snacked on commercial rap. As Shaolin research began to point out the overwhelming benefits of raw production, true hip hop enthusiasts started turning back to traditional styles. Wu-Tang in particular, has been shown to myriad beneficial effects, from warding off ignorance and poverty to reducing the risk of incarceration and death.

    Word, SOS is my favorite track on the album. I really like this album, it´s grimey as hell.

    I remember when I first got it (this was actually my first wu-related album btw), I couldn´t really get into it. I was also pretty new to hiphop at that point. I felt it was too dirty sounding, it felt amateurish and not catchy, lol! (yeah, I know). Now, I love it for all those reasons. It certainly has to grow on you, but to a lesser extent when you´re used to this type of hiphop.

    I wouldn´t rate it a classic, as so many on this site does. It´s a great album. But alot of the lyrics don´t have enough depth to qualify as classic material.
    I also don´t think that alot of the killa bees are talented enough. Not that they´re bad, but compared to the generals, they´re nothing specials.

    I´ll rate this album 9/10, and a lot of that goes to the beats alone. To me the best tracks are the ones with the core members on them. I love the sound of the album, it has that pure wu-tang vibe that I love, so fucking grimey.
