Actually, fuck. I should have voted for Ghost, his builds steam continuously, just gets more and more classic as it goes. Rae's too, but, of course, in a more laid-back way.
Also love RZA, who sounds fucking pissed off, just tearing his way into the studio. "MY CLAN INCREASE LIKE BLACK UNEMPLOYMENT!" - balances a clever boast and the god damned injustice of what it is he's using as a springboard for the boast.

Would agree completely. I mean, "Triumph" is basically the imperial-phase version of this cut. Who would you say specifically?

Never saw this thread actually.
GZA cause "now the money's getting stuck to the gum under the table" gets me every time (a mountain climber who plays the electric guitar is the icing on the cake).

Raekwon and Ghost especially I think are so much stronger on their solo records and other later work than on 36 Chambers

"Also love RZA, who sounds fucking pissed off"
Lol, he definitely sounds like a car drove through a puddle and splashed him on his way to the studio.
