Well, we thought it was funny

I'm borrowing this thread to find out what the backing track/sample is from in the GZA's "Stay in Line." It sounds like a guitar line I've heard somewhere.

can't answer the guitar line question, but as for some of wu's worst moments:

Method man (w Redman) in How High (song and movie)
Gravel Pit
GZA's Fame single
Pinky Ringz
ODB's Trials and Tribulations of Russell Jones LP
Killah Priest's last 3 albums
Cappadonna's last 2

GZA's Fame single

EXPLAIN THYSELF

i thought the album could've gained a lot more attention than it did. and 'fame' somehow just didn't work as a single. The lyrics are clever enough, but don't fit the beat. andf there's none of GZA's mysteriousness there. obviously just a personal 'clanger' - not the worst the wu have released.

Fair enough, though I heard it was remixed somewhere.

You hate "Gravel Pit" and "Pinky Ring (Uzi)"? Oh lord! Those two are fantastic, man.

1. yeah, j-love did a Fame remix using a slowed-down sample of the Fame TV show theme.
2. Guess I have to admit: I like my Wu grimey and difficult. That's why I prefer, say, U-God's album to 'Iron Flag'.

Hahah. I read 'Cappadonna' as 'Crappadonna'.

ugh, that "Wu Wear: The Garment Renaissance" on the Rhyme & Reason Soundtrack. Or maybe it was High School High Soundtrk

The Wu-Tang videogame for Playstation was pretty sad.
