I just wasn't sure if it was officially released, I only caught it on the show itself

man i have so much to listen to.

Spottie, Friday, 8 September 2017 20:14 (six years ago) link

lol yeah years ago I made some thread about how I was going to listen to all the Wu solo albums in chronological order but looking at that list... oy

Οὖτις, Friday, 8 September 2017 20:15 (six years ago) link

I never listened to Killarmy, Sunz of Man or Shyheim does anybody rate that shit at all? seems totally forgotten.

Οὖτις, Friday, 8 September 2017 20:16 (six years ago) link

I have that Sunz of Man 'The Last Shall Be First' CD, I like it. Whole album has a lot of classic soul samples. Shining Star has some sweet Ol Dirty action

'Isreali News' beat is rad, 'Natural High' is great.
Intellectuals has some good U-God verses

Sunz of Man never got to release their album the way they wanted to, right? Their singles are written about in Kodwo Eshun's More Brilliant Than the Sun, and yeah, a few songs are good.

Frederik B, Friday, 8 September 2017 20:43 (six years ago) link

their og album yeah got shelved then the one talked about above was their debut but there was already feuds going with RZA. Think some of those og songs got released on Testament later?
Could make a killer tracklist with the best of their early work.

Spottie, Friday, 8 September 2017 21:00 (six years ago) link

y'know, this Bobby Digital album isn't actually very good

Οὖτις, Friday, 8 September 2017 22:32 (six years ago) link

handful of decent tracks and then *tons* of filler
