U-God's deep flow style was only used twice on their previous record, but his voice suites these lyrics perfectly and his flow is pronounced clearly with rhymes like "Alphabet run/construction voice might blow/Tap dance swelling Hemingway novel model/For a breather dirty reefer hide your bottle". One of the biggest additions to the group is the inclusion of the previously rarely seen MCs, U-God, and Masta Killah, as well as including Cappadona on five tracks. The Method Man's deep voice has less off beat rhythm and more focuss, especially when he raps on the aforementioned Triumph "As the world turns, I spread like germsBless the globe with the pestilence, the hard-headed never learn/It's my testament to those burned/Play my position in the game of life/standin firm" Musical mastermind, the RZA abandoned his hardcore style of rapping, and replaced it with a equally passionate, but calmer style that is seen best on the near perfect "Severe Punishment" ("Fabulous establishment metabolism/Blackfoot Indian Cherokee started out smaller than amphibian/Then grew to a physical body with five meridians"). Speaking of vocal stylings, maturity is seen extensively with in the collective. Ghostface Killah and Raekwon continue to keep high energy, and intense rhymes while adapting, and they sync in perfectly with their new lyrics. Metaphors jump in, when he raps "I bomb atomically, Socrates' philosophies and hypothesis can't define how I be droppin these mockeries, lyrically perform armed robbery Flee with the lottery possibly they spotted me/Battle-scarred shogunexplosion when my pen hits tremendousultra-violet shine blind forensics" on the posse cut, "Triumph". The Inspectah Deck continues with his technical rhymes, despite embracing their new found style.
Wu tang clan forever mediafire free#
The first verse of "Reunited" shows the mighty GZA rapping "Struck a match to the underground/industry ignited/from metaphorical parables to fertilize the Earth/Wicked niggaz come, try to burglarize the turf/Scattin off soft-ass beats them niggaz rap happily" confidently, but with a free feel as if the words simply fell out of his mouth. Each MC opens up their vocabulary, using metaphors, but still embracing street slang. The lyrics are confident, and show a much more poetic side to the group than seen previously. Almost every MC had grown considerably since Enter the Wu-Tang, and has expanded upon their sound, and the maturity is shown extensively throughout the two discs. The first thing to notice, is the different direction in the lyrics. These records were scattered with evidence of what the band would achieve on this album. But in the three years between their debut was a string of classic solo albums such as Raekwon's Mafioso classic, "Only Built for Cuban Linx", Ghostface Killah's "Ironman", the GZA's masterful "Liquid Swords", and Ol' Dirty Bastard's best work, "Return to the 36 Chambers". In fact the only double hip hop album that totally exceeded my expectations, is the Wu-Tang clan's Wu-Tang Forever.Īrising from the smoke of their East-coast Hip Hop classic, Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers), with a soul-based, poetic double disc album might seem like a risky stretch.
But artists like 2pac, Nas, and even the great Schooly D released lengthy, over indulgent albums that could probably not be stomached in one listen. Outkast has done a pretty good job at putting out double/long albums that can be considered gems. Talented MCs stuff two discs worth of material, with crappy 10 second guest spots, filler, and pointless skits, often burying away the real gems. Review Summary: An overlooked double Album, that proves more depth to group than before.ĭouble albums by Hip-Hop artists are generally a disappointing affair.
