10/10 def a HIP HOP classic.
Killa made me go pick up a book after hearing this album.
....classic
What can I say more? It's a classic and one of the best LP's ever, not only in Wu catalogue. Wisdom. wisdom, wisdom... plus sick beats, what do you want more? If You Don't Know is one of the illest tracks ever But songs like One Step, Cross My Heart, Tai Chi or From Then Til Now are classics too.
all i gotta say is one of the best fuckin hip hop albums ever in the history of the shit, Priest = one of the greatest hands down
i lack that part of me thats supposed to give a fuck
im so fuckin ballin' i walk around with L1NK's muma on ma dick muh'fucka
poll for heavy mental
Christianity = White Supremacy
My opinion changed from the review I had. Now I think it's a definate classic. Overlooked album by the masses.
Definetly one of my favs....I actually had a lot of my CDs stolen so I'm on the path of replacing a lot of my ish....and this one is first on my list
"Fuck fame... I'll shoot a hole in a 50 cent piece to test my aim." - Masta Killah (One Blood)
"Kiss the pyramid...experiment wit high explosives. I slap box wit Jesus....lick shots at Joseph." - GFK (Daytona 500)
Yeah, this came out when i was 12 so i couldn't really apreciate it. It was just too much for my comprehension at the time but fast forward a few years now i think it's amazing.Originally Posted by the surgeon
"There’s not too many jewels being dropped these days. Everyone wants to shake their ass. I call the club the devil’s box. Hip-hop is at an all-time low. It’s sad. It’s going nowhere but down. We’re living out the last days, the last two pages of the bible." - Ghostface Killah (REAL TALK)
WU-TANG, HIPHOP'S LAST HOPE!?!?!?
Pshhh.. I had this album for a while..I'll rate it.
01 : Intro-Don't Rate
02 : One Step ft. Tekitha & Hell Razah- One of the best tracks on the Cd priest is lyrically correct on here, Tekeitha fucked up at the end but it's all good. 4.5/5
03 : Blessed Are Those- I hate this shit the beat is weak not feeling. This track is average, his flow is boring on here. 3.5/5
04 : From Then Till Now- I'm feeling this shit right here Priest flow is on point once again. Y-Kim did a nice job with this one. 4.5/5
05 : Cross My Heart ft. Inspectah Deck & GZA - 2 Best track on the cd Deck and Gza save the day Both have great openin bars. 4.5/5
06 : Fake MC's - He is just talking on here...the beat is nice enough to keep it on though, he is speaking some real but rap. 4/5
07 : It's Over - I'm feeling the beat right here. His flow is shakey right here but its all good. I love how he endfs the song "YOUR CAREER IS NOW FINISHED"! 4/5
08 : Crosaids - Skit
09 : Tai Chi ft. Hell Razah, 60 Second Assassin & Father Lord- OMFG!!!!! 60 Sec. Fucked up this track so fucking bad it dont make sense!! Hell Razah killed his verse..Im zoning out then 60 comes on im like wtf???? shit is so horrible he did the same bullshit on soldiers of darkness....Id rather have holocaust on this track! 3.5/5
10 : Heavy Mental- skit
11 : If You Don't Know ft. Ol' Dirty Bastard- Best fucking song on the cd! O.d.B. (r.I.P.) kills the hook , i was def, feeling this, priest comes correct his flow is great on here no bullshit. 5/5
12 : Atoms To Adam ft. Shangai The Messenger- For some reason I'm feeling this shit. his flow is kinda off but the hook keeps me tuned. 4/5
13 : High Explosives- This shit is ok, I dont know wtf priest is sayin on here for real, weak lines like "Ill run through your kingdom and conquer you" doesnt keep me tuned, the beat does though. 4/5
14 : Wisdom - This is my shit right here, he speaking about women and everything he is nice on the mic. 4.5/5
15 : B.I.B.L.E.- Man I heard this shit so many times I skip this track. 4/5
16 : Mystic City- Everything is correct on this track thats all i gotta say. 4.5/5
17 : Information - Track is complete bullshit, all that shit he said back then is supposed to be happenin now, its not, i skip this track. 3/5
18 : Science Project ft. Hell Razah- Razah comes correct on the hook. Nice story telling by priest. 4.5/5
19 : Almost There- Flow is off but its still understandable nice track right here. 4/5

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.
yeah there are several great jointz on this one.. overall i think 8/10
