    Let me tell you. Queens Gambit is awesome. the way GZA incorporates the NFL teams is like no other. Destruction of a guard was good too. but I can't find the remix to "Those That's Bout It" It was on the 2nd Grandmaster's album the remix album. The beat was so amazing but I can't find it anywhere on the internet and the cd isn't around in any stores where i'm at. If I could listen to the song just one more time...

    really good album. If GZA would a come with just a little more energy on some tracks it would of been great.

    "Queen's Gambit" is the only track i repeatedly bump, the others are just OKAY. The album has some maad fucking gay production on some songs.

    I wasnt really feeling the album...I know alot of people enjoyed it so thats cool...and I know the beats were from Muggs' Black Sunday era...but I wasnt feelin the production for the most part...it was kinda boring...and this is coming from a HUGE Muggs fan...he's one of the most underrated producers...but yeah, Grandmasters was only eh to me

    i agree with you. i was listening to it yesterday. for me it's better than a lot of albums.

    muggs is really one of the best producers ever...rza/muggs/premier...that's the shit

    GZA lyrics were great... muggs beats were great... but they didn't mix well together.. sometimes muggs beats were too heavy for the not-so-energetic-GZA IMO

    I liked the album though
    Shaolin shadowboxin' and the wu-tang swordstyle...
    If what you say is true...
    The shaolin and the wu-tang could be dangerous!
    En garde, I'll let you try my wu-tang style...
