Raekwon Discography Zip
Inspectah Deck has a bone to pick with fate. Uncontrolled Substance was supposed to be released in 1995 before a flood at RZA’s studio destroyed most of the album’s tracks. The album then got lost in the shuffle, and by the time Uncontrolled Substance finally emerged in 1999, almost simultaneous with the arrival of Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s Nigga Please, the Rebel INS’ solo debut had gone from being released in the same breath as Cuban Linx and Liquid Swords to being released when the dominant Wu-related storyline was what crazy thing ODB was going to do next.
A shame, and Uncontrolled Substance is an excellent if underheard album. Masta Killa and Cappadonna are the are-they-or-aren’t-they members of the Wu. I chose to disqualify Cappadonna from this list because he doesn’t appear on 36 Chambers. (Cappachino’s solo discography admittedly made this a pretty painless decision, even if his guest spots on “Ice Cream” and Ironman’s “” are indispensable contributions to the Wu oeuvre). Masta Killa, on the other hand, does, if only on one track (“Da Mystery of Chessboxin’ ”). His solo debut, No Said Date, appeared a cool 11 years after 36 Chambers, and despite only modest commercial success the album was surprisingly excellent, a welcome burst of Shaolin hip-hop at a generally fallow time for the Empire.
2011 album from the Hip Hop icon and Wu Tang member. Wu-Tang is the long awaited concept album from Raekwon the Chef. Back with the gritty tales from the street that have made him a Hip Hop legend, Shaolin Vs. Wu-Tang captures Raekwon at the top of his lyrical game. Guest features include The.
GZA is a phenomenal lyricist and an incredibly interesting and likeable dude, which is probably why we don’t dwell on the fact that he’s never made another solo album nearly as good as Liquid Swords. One reason for this is that he seems to lack the ear for (or perhaps just the access to) the top-shelf beats that, say, Ghostface has snatched up over the years, and the production on much of his solo work has been forgettable. Photoshop Cs7 In Windows. Pro Tools is a welcome exception to this, an album of off-kilter, vaguely futuristic-sounding beats that mostly live up to GZA’s razor-sharp rhymes.
