ODB references Jim Kelly. Used to be so confused why so many rappers referenced a white Buffalo Bills QB haha.

#7 GZA - Shadowboxin’ Points: 326 Votes: 13

competitive shooter - - - - (Spottie), Tuesday, 5 December 2017 18:30 (eight years ago)

protect ya neck obviously classic, nearly every line is memorable, but i think i prefer the calculated menace and bombast of triumph to the unhinged energy of PYN. both in my top 12

da mystery of chessboxin was in my top 10, my fav on the debut after tearz. my fav ghost verse on the album and prob my fav ODB verse ever (possibly besides one song that's probably coming up)

voodoo chili, Tuesday, 5 December 2017 18:33 (eight years ago)

lookin like a bunch of stuff I voted for isn't gonna place at all :(

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 5 December 2017 18:36 (eight years ago)

i like shadowboxin but dont think it's better than 4th chamber

competitive shooter - - - - (Spottie), Tuesday, 5 December 2017 18:37 (eight years ago)

gonna rollout one more then i have a meeting and will resume the final 5 in an hour or so

so still to come = CREAM, Shimmy Shimmy Ya, Liquid Swords, what else?

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 5 December 2017 18:40 (eight years ago)

I had to pick and choose from OB4CL and left Incarcerated Scarfaces off, but it's amazing obviously.

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 5 December 2017 18:41 (eight years ago)

Shame on a N's gotta place, right?

"...cause RZA to charge niggas 20 G's a session" *studio drop-in noise=RZA saying oh hello there motherfuckers*

A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Tuesday, 5 December 2017 18:47 (eight years ago)

I wonder how many rappers regret name dropping trump in their old songs

competitive shooter - - - - (Spottie), Tuesday, 5 December 2017 18:54 (eight years ago)

This is the thread for posting random Trump references in rap songs

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 5 December 2017 18:54 (eight years ago)

#5 GZA - Liquid Swords Points: 369 Votes: 12

competitive shooter - - - - (Spottie), Tuesday, 5 December 2017 20:23 (eight years ago)

huh never knew that was rated so highly. always viewed it mainly as setting the stage for rest of the album.

A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Tuesday, 5 December 2017 20:37 (eight years ago)

same, really figured 4th Chamber would be the runaway winner of Liquid Swords

lol @ knuckle sandwich

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 5 December 2017 20:41 (eight years ago)

the song "liquid swords" can't help but fail to live up to the spoken-word intro

voodoo chili, Tuesday, 5 December 2017 20:42 (eight years ago)

i was gonna say the case for liquid swords is made 100% on the stone classicness of the Lone Wolf and Cub bit

Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Tuesday, 5 December 2017 20:43 (eight years ago)

which is A) cool on its own and B) cool bc oh shit they stepped over from kung fu to samurai movies *mind blown* and C) cool bc it's Lone Wolf and Cub god bless these nerrrrds

Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Tuesday, 5 December 2017 20:45 (eight years ago)

i didn't vote it high, but i couldn't argue with that

Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Tuesday, 5 December 2017 20:46 (eight years ago)

Liquid Swords was my highest ranked track from the album, what can I say

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 5 December 2017 20:46 (eight years ago)

Ruckus is perfect representative of what I love about RZA productions. Always liked his quote (which I can never find online) about how before there was jazz rap or soul rap or funk rap (meaning the backing track) but with Wu "you couldn't say it was nothin other than hip hop".

A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Tuesday, 5 December 2017 20:47 (eight years ago)

xpost nothing you got to say it is prime GZA on a mission...

Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Tuesday, 5 December 2017 20:48 (eight years ago)

I am bummed that more tracks from Pretty Toney and OBFCL2 didn't make it, but I guess we had to make room for all the canonical stuff

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 5 December 2017 20:49 (eight years ago)

more xposts i get that completely but tbh one of the things i love about wu tang is how well their best ensemble tracks illuminate hip-hop's jazz dna -- differently-gifted soloists improvising over the same changes in, uh, witty and unpredictable ways

amazing song, glad it placed so high

voodoo chili, Tuesday, 5 December 2017 21:00 (eight years ago)

the combat grunts really set the tone for the chaotic aggressiveness of Dirty's hook/verses

voodoo chili, Tuesday, 5 December 2017 21:03 (eight years ago)

yeah song's got bounce

competitive shooter - - - - (Spottie), Tuesday, 5 December 2017 21:05 (eight years ago)

My number 2 at number 1

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 5 December 2017 21:15 (eight years ago)

what I've learned here is that RZA was right about cocker spaniel dogs

A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Tuesday, 5 December 2017 21:19 (eight years ago)

shimmy shimmy ya and shame on a n** are of a piece in my mind, crazy to see them place right next to each other and so high.

C.R.E.A.M. is undeniably great, though it's rarely the wu banga I return to the most, prob cause i memorized both verses when i was 15
