Rap is not my thing, but I'll listen. It's OK for what it is, but I won't listen a second time.
Ok
Was wonderful. I danced and danced and danced... then broke down and punched a wall. It reminded me of Otis Redding's early work. I did find 'Ghostface' very upsetting though #wlm
Shite at the beginning Good decent Got slower Got bored
Meh. I just don't like swearing in my music. Takes me right out of it.
Literally listened to 30 seconds. No thanks
Een soort rap dat op clipping lijkt. Ambitieus maar ik weet niet of het wat voor mij is.
Ok
Liked it.
8/10 a lot of good tracks on here, great beats and samples. i think it's a little overly long.
Very mid noughties
Not my usual choice of music to garden to but it worked. Those brambles didn’t know what hit them. 2/5
Not normally my thing but enjoyed that added couple of songs to my favourites.
bog standard hip hop. Nothing special going on here.
Love this album. Could still do with trimming down a bit
5/10. He immediately tells us to fasten our seatbelts, which I appreciate because I am tired of listening to rap albums that don't care about the listener's personal safety. Also listening to this for the first time after the MCU made Tony Stark a household name, but knowing that this is older than that made the constant references to Tony Starks and Ironman a bit surprising. I liked that the skits transitioned very smoothly into the following songs in this album. I kinda liked Back Like That, I suppose because it just sounds like a pop song. I also like how when he boasts about women, these women are often intelligent in addition to having great asses etc, which is pretty fun.
Es que siento que no tengo las suficientes herramientas para la apreciación de este género. Diría que pasó sin pena ni gloria. Está okay para un ratito, pero sí me pesó una hora. Me gustaron Kilo, The Champ, y Underwater que tiene un instrumentación chidilla. Heart Street Directions es muy cagada. Mood: "it's kinda wet down there" lol
This album is completely out of my normal wheelhouse of rock/punk/emo, but I loved it. I wish there were less skits, but they come with the territory I guess.
Er, hoje não, Faro.
7/10 - Cool rap album, doesn't bring nothing new in 2021 of course
Every rap album on here seems to be by a member of the Wu Tang Clan and takes about a day to listen to. This one, though, is the best. Great use of smoky soul samples, skits that actually add to the proceedings, and a genuinely brilliant couple of tracks in The Champ and Back Like That. Gonna use The Champ to get myself psyched into a killer mentality before playing badminton with my work colleagues
The Champ
This is real good. Three Bricks is an awesome closing track
Não faz meu estilo de música
Pretty good, I like the beats but it was long and had a bunch of boring skits. 8
Hart Street Directions and Bad Mouthed Kid were entirely unrequired. Just took down the album.
Listening again today; great production and incredibly cinematic album. Def up there with my fav hip hop albums of all time. “RAGU” and “Back Like That (feat. Ne-Yo)” have got to be some of my fav tracks of all time.
Wasn't familiar with this (so much wu tang catalogue), but loved it.
Mucho flow, más de lo que puedo procesar... por ahí caché letras bastante buenas, creo que el disco suena bien en conjunto y las colaboraciones son muy chidas. Especialmente me gustaron "The Champ", "Three Bricks" y el remix (con la familiar voz de Kanye) de "Back Like That". 8/10
Great production, overall a great listen and def up there with one of my fav hip hop albums of all time. RAGU slaps.
I've not listened to Wu-Tang / Ghostface Killah before, and I'm surprised at how much this album reminds me, in structure, to Tenacious D -- I know it's really probably influenced the other way, but the skits and the over-the-top lewdness. Kinda fascinating. Highlights: "Kilo", "Whip You With a Strap" and "Back Like That"
I love this album. Surprised to see it on this list, but it's fantastic.
I like the skits, they made me laugh.
Not yo my taste.
I like the semi Lo-Fi vibes. Killas flow def wears me down, hes only got one sound and speed. Top 3 songs Shakey Boy, Three Bricks, and the irreverent Kilo 3 out of 5
skip the skits, they dont add anything and are too disjoint to make this any attempt at a concept album. "9milli bros" is the hype-anthem and would have been a strong album opener. "the champ" is worth a listen. "Be easy" is also another stand out, but becomes repetitive with the forced syncopation.
Impressive!
This is a great album from start to finish. Ghostface is always great, and this is hands-down his best album.
Loved this album, great assorted group of producers and Killah's rhymes are something else. Also, I learned how to cut a brick of cocaine, so it was also instructional.
Never actually heard him out of Wu Tang, pretty cool
shrug. Not my thing, but I guess it's supposed to be good.
I haven't listened to this since college, probably 15 years ago. I used to like the Wu-Tang extended universe a lot more back then. Now I don't enjoy the agro shout-rapping as much, in addition to content aging poorly.
Semibängeri Slässic hip-hop
Miles better than the Raekwon album, IMO. I don’t know what makes “9 Milli Bros.” anything other than just a Wu Tang song, but I ain’t complaining. I would absolutely listen to this again.
Freshe beats für einen jungen mann wje mich
Better then I thought. Like the horns, background singers (esp on kilo). The Tony Stark references are funny (I guess this was when Iron Man was out), but its never going to be an album I would recommend
rap dimenticabile
Wutang Clan Forever, maybe this album only once in a while - a few tracks were amazing, several samples felt juvenile.
Never heard this before - pretty bad ass - such a tough sound. I defiantly have ‘n word’ fatigue - Rap has got to evolve - the first track is horrible
I like the style and flow. Enjoyable hip-hop/r&b variant of rap, with creativity, color and an attitude.
I enjoyed this much more than I was expecting.
Abso loot LUV.
good album, can’t go wrong with wu tang
Not really my style but I can respect the production values and thematic vision. Listening again, it’s growing on me, it’s very tight
i don't really think i understand how to appreciate hiphop but this has an energy....a lifeblood running through it.
Ok
Wu Tang Forever
Fresh beats, tight rhymes. What more could you ask for?
Not great.
Beter als verwacht, had wel wat fijne soul stukjes
Cinematic and dense. I need to listen to this again, I feel like I missed so much. The beats just felt so groovy and vital as well.
One of my favourite unheard hip hop albums so far. Doesn't sound like he takes himself too seriously but hits hard all the same. Lots of solid features but surprisingly the Ne Yo hook was my favourite - especially loved Kanye's verse on the remix. Can definitely hear where Action Bronson gets his style from. The Bad Mouth Kid skit was hilarious.
This fucks and this Aussie gives it five pairs of Blundstones out of five.
Like a series of The Wire, on an album. Read the lyrics while you listen
Some great tracks on here but the production is lacking - even the enjoyable beats wore 1-2 samples thin over the course of a 3-minute track instead of adding in some other instrumentation or melody.
false
Great album
Loved it, I didn't think I would, But every track was strong and it worked together so well.
Not really a hip-hop fan, but especially hip-hop like... this.
Solid hip hop.
Great hip-hop, waaaaaay too many skits.
Great solo album from the clan man
This was super great and a pretty vicious album! I feel like this is an album that if I listened to it when I was younger it'd have an even bigger impact. As it stands though, a really great reason why Wu-Tang ain't nothing to fuck with.
This is probably tied with Inspectah Deck's Resident Patient as my fav Wu Tang solo record out there.
Solid album, shows the dominance of the members of wu-tang in the 90s
was ok. I don't like the skits..?
Got better as it went. Liked the R&B stuff and Be Easy.
goeie hiphop staat bij mijn favorieten 3.5/5
Surprisingly good, and all-star guest appearances
Good shit
good
Ok but he did better earlier and later.
Can‘t listen to this
lol...
Ihan ok biisejä välistä, mutta yleinen kiinnostus räbäytykseen on laskussa joten ei jatkoon...
Too many skits - wasn’t as good as I thought it would be
Not as much my vibe, but I like the beats/production.
The Champ is too good!
Cocaine rap isn't my favorite thing, but the lyricism is on point. Best track: The Champ.
Really enjoyed this one
Pari hyvää erottu joukosta, mut ei noussu mitään suosikeiksi ja liian pitkä levy
2006. Key Songs: R.A.G.U, 9 Milli Bros, Shakey Dog
Not for me
Wasn't too bad considering its not my thing and went for over an hour. Some really catchy tunes among the filler. 3/5.
Like most hip hop albums... it’s a tad long. But pretty pretty good 👌
