The more and more I listen to it I appreciate it more and the direction there were going in with this album. I don't think it's for everyone that was expecting Wu to come back hard and heavy. You can tell they matured a bit from the same old same old in your face street crap. Even though I love Wu when they are like that but it's nice to hear a change of pace. |

Maybe so, but they should let the past be past. Just because someone has a moose doesn't mean they automatically have to become a porn star. |

you are generalizing too much and comparing apples to oranges...but w/e and they aren't losing their zeal to me...just trying something slightly different. they have a harder "street" album coming out soon, atleast that's what I gathered from RZA's interview. |

Wu-Tang in Denver
Yo listen. If you have any doubts about the current state of Wu-Tang come to the show at the Ogden in Denver on the 20th. I saw Ghostface there with Hip Hop live about a month ago and, no ****, it was one of the best shows Ive seen! Wu-Tang will be even better!

the album is interesting because it's definitely not Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) or Fishscale or anything like that. It's definitely a mood album. its tough because sometimes you're loving what RZA's doing and then there are other times where you feel that RZA is over-experimenting or something. if youre open minded to hearing RZA's experiments in this "different" Wu-Tang album, then you'll love 8 Diagrams. If, like Ghostface or Raekwon, you'd rather hear the good old 36 chambers, 8 diagrams is not the best Wu album for you. for me, there's a little too much singing and melody, but it's good. not a big fan of the quitars. also there seems to be a lack of unity as a Clan. however, RZA (and everyone else) keep coming up with new sounds and at this point are really unpredictable, so here's 8 diagrams.
and **** the haters the Clan loved Russell Tyrone Jones because he was their brother. the whole "life changes" stuff is not a marketing scheme. they simply want him to be remembered as one of the best in the game. rest in power, dirt mcgirt |
