graet review Hollow. IMO Dart Throwing, Blood On Blood War, Black Boy and Milk The Cow deserve 5/5 notes

It became a much played and loved CD. Great music. full stop.

Andy - same here man. Great days. You saw the symbol - you bought the cd - no doubt the product was going to be hot.

"Run" had one of the best wu-tang beats ever, in my opinion

**Mumm Ra** · 05-03-2010, 09:04 PM

dis a classic

**Holocaust** · 05-04-2010, 01:11 AM

classic, because they did not make it too long ala liquid swords

I still remember when I bought this album when it first came out....it stayed in rotation for long time! i think more then killah priest heavy mental that year....but my favorite track on the album would have to be The Pillage...that song is so fuckin dope killa bamz killed that shit...then cappa went in!! ahh man great way to start 98 off

I'm sorry but this album is terribly overrated by almost everyone.

**Mumm Ra** · 05-04-2010, 01:06 PM

the polls aren't on your side brock
just sayin

**brock** · 05-04-2010, 01:14 PM

Does it compare to Liquid Swords, Cuban Linx or 36 Chambers? Nope. Not a classic. This is Cappadonna we're talking about here, and this album has a lot of junk on the back end. I voted banger, and that's more than adequate for a clearly flawed album. Let's not elevate this to heights it doesn't deserve.

**Mumm Ra** · 05-04-2010, 01:18 PM

it stands in its own right -
bob digi in stereo is a classic but u cant really compare it to old wu albums
does protools compare to those albums?

**Mumm Ra** · 05-04-2010, 01:23 PM

anyways
pillage has sick beats, sick rhymes and i can listen to the entire album w/o skipping a single track, and it feels like an actual album and not a mixtape like a lot of later wu-tang albums do

**brock** · 05-04-2010, 01:24 PM

In Stereo is not a classic. It may be to you, but it's not a classic. I never said Pro Tools was a classic. Also, "It stands on it's own right", means nothing. Stop using worthless rhetoric.

**Mumm Ra** · 05-04-2010, 01:27 PM

In Stereo is not a classic. It may be to you, but it's not a classic.

^ worthless rhetoric
you called songs on protools classic...do they stand up to anything from '93-95 wu albums?
also, id like to remind you that the polls are in my favor when it comes to both albums im calling classic

**brock** · 05-04-2010, 01:36 PM

Not according to my polls, which rate individual tracks, and not according to AMG. Those polls you are talking about aren't realistic.

I did this last year. I believe it shows an accurate view of the consensus view of all albums. Pro Tools and In Stereo both got a 4, and although The Pillage is not on there, I believe it would get a 4 as well.
