One of These Days has a shitty beat....would be better remixed.... some Bronze soul samples and voila.... a wu-banger

the only tracks i dislike are soul power and dashing
I only disliked Soul Power and Chrome Wheels, I actually liked this album more than the W, I thought the tracks were doper, but it didnt have a cohesive feel/ concept like the W did
Meth and Gza owned Iron Flag, great album to blaze to
"The skywalker, that be leapin' over planets"
Chrome Wheels is wack - Bob Digi doesn't belong on a Wu album.
Iron Flag (the track) is HOT, beat is fire, i would have loved the whole Wu to spit over that as like a Triumph MKII, beat is wasted because the song cuts short.
1. In The Hood - 5/5 - classic
2. Rules - 4/5 - slammin' - definite satisfaction
3. Chrome Wheels - 3.5/5 - dope
4. Soul Power - 3/5 - good, worth checking out
5. Uzi (Pinky Ring) - 5/5 - classic
6. One Of These Days - 4.5/5 - superior
7. Ya'll Been Warned - 5/5 - classic
8. Babies - 5/5 - classic
9. Radioactive (Four Assassins) - 5/5 - classic
10. Back In The Game - 4.5/5 - superior
11. Iron Flag|The Glock - 5/5 - classic|5/5 - classic
12. Dashing (Reasons) - 4/5 - slammin' - definite satisfaction
13. The W (International Bonus Track) - 5/5 - classic
overall: 4.5/5 - superior

Definately the best album...
outside of 36 and forever of course.
This is a street album, not a dark and gloomy one like the W.
you can't really hate on it unless all you want to hear is dark shit.beats are mostly all upbeat and lyrics are crazy.
Rae and Gza still spit wit feeling, not like now all laid back.
The only thing missing is a skit or two(or maybe not) 9/10
Whaddup, whaddup
good but in my opinion "The W" wuzz better.
1.In The Hood - 4/5
2.Rules - 3.5/5
3.Chrome Wheels - 2.5/5 (should have been on a Bobby Digital release instead)
4.Soul Power - 3/5 (does this track really need Flavor Flav?)
5.Uzi - 4/5
6.One Of These Days - 4/5
7.Ya'll Been Warned - 4.5/5
8.Babies - 3/5
9.Radioactive (Four Assassins) - 4/5
10.Back In The Game - 3/5
11.Iron Flag - 4/5
12.Dashing (Reasons) - 2.5/5
13.The W - 3/5
I'm sorry but I was never feeling this album. It sounds too polished for me. And some of the lyrics seem a bit simple (just my opinion of course!), perhaps it was all a little too rushed??
In The Hood - 3.5/5
Rules - 3.5 /5
Chrome Wheels - 3.5 /5
Soul Power - 5/5
Uzi - 5/5
One of these days - 2.5/5
Yall been warned - 4.5/5
Babies - 5/5
Radioactive - Hated this beat - 4.5/5
Back In da game - 3/5
Iron flag - 5/5
Dashin - INS also killed this one - 5/5
The W - 5/5
Overall : 56/65
Yeah I really appreciated this one. It's a sad album, really a winter feeling. I don't whih one is better IF or The W. I don't why so many people don't like this shit, it's dope.
No love for Rules, Uzi & Iron Flag?
Retired.
Rules song is ok but i was very disappointed in the album because of the beats. It's really sad that Wu Tang hasn't made a good group album since their first classic album. I won't be buying their new album but i'll be a fan for life. I definitely put Wu Tang in my top 5 favorite rap groups of all time.
