Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)
Wu-Tang Clan
I'm not super into rap but this was charming in how much of a throwback it was. I do like that 90's-mid 2000's style a lot more than what is popular now. even when the sound was relatively stripped back, the rap was holding a rhythm you could groove to - not so much the case with today. Obviously this was hugely influential - I could hear Salt N Pepa, Lauryn Hill, Dr Dre's "The Next Episode". Maybe I should check out some more Wu-Tang.

My 4th grade jam - just completely etched into my brain. The hits still hit, You Oughta Know is the banger to end all bangers, but the fillers are pretty filler-y.

Ok I guess. Not sure I'm into 25 minute long improvisational pieces.

Haven't listened to this one in a while. Short and sweet, gets in, rocks your head off, and goes. 4 stars for the album, 5 stars for Maps.

Not convinced that this needed to be on the list. Funeral eats Neon Bible's lunch.
