@@seekerundue Indeed, but you get older, priorities change, you put em on the shelf (though I did see them live last yr), so now it's kind of like I'm getting to know them again, slightly more personally.
spainman2020 same man. Listening to all the best group and solo albums, watching the Hulu show and watching interviews here. Check out the drink champs episode with them.
I could listen to Masta Killa speak all day!! He doesn't say much, but when he talks he says A LOT and you HAVE to listen. Some people talk a lot and say NOTHING!!
yeh that's Ari Melber man he's a true hiphop fan. If you watch his news show, every now and then he just randomly incorporates known rap lyrics into his commentary and its hilarious!!!
Its so dope that the interviewer was like a kid in a candy store. Knew the verses, the songs, the history on a platform as big as this network is. It pleases me to no end to see hip hop, Wu in particular, go from the basement to the penthouse to the Manhattan rooftop garden interview on daytime TV. Sheesh!!! We all dreamed this art form could blossom but to SEE it...WOW!!!
This is the best hip-hop interview ever. From interviewer asking real questions AND letting them speak. To the content of what they were speaking about. To every member having their own voice and being respectful and respected. W
I love the love they have for each other. You can tell that no matter what quarrels they may have had in the past, Wu-Tang will always be solidified by their bond through their experiences before and during their music. I love it all
Product of their environment. A lotta street smart knowledge to survive, strongest bond on the streets. Gotta have each other’s back in order to survive and one up out of the hood.
The way these guys instinctively know when to make space for each other conversationally is part of the magic, like a cypher with each emcee knowing when their bars are gonna hit hardest
Thanks! Ari, for bringing these guys on to tell their story. Bless their souls. Thanks Wu-Tang, for sharing your story. This has meaning and will help many. Cant wait to see the film.
@@DrGetgood I disagree. It showed poor taste. It lacked any type of journalistic integrity. The entire interview is trash now because of that one indefensible slipup. The Wu-Tang deserved much more than that. They are legends.
Please curb the racist comments in this thread. Using words like thug is not cool. These men are helping people see their truth and helping others with their story.. Be kind.
@@gliza Yes. Their music reflects their life experiences. They have grown and so has their words. I worked as a producer of rap at a indy label. I heard some really raw stuff. Offensive as a women These guys are helping others with their music right now. Bless their souls. Stop racist comments.
How do you know he is a true fan of Hip Hop? He's a journalist, he's supposed to have an idea of what he's interviewing about. What's Fox News got to do with this interview?
'an unspotted life on the mic is old age'..gza already spoke about in older godz what rza mentions..getting older means you've done something right at least. It's a blessing.
Great interview. Great questions. "White America tells the black mans story. Scared of the Black man. Ignorance. Love the talk about Stress. Stress kills us. We are expected to be Strong. We cant be weak. We cant cry. We cant release. Well im glad that is changing. I would hope that we can start speaking more, crying more, releasing anger in a positive way. WU!!!!!!!!!
I was born in 1980 and grew up on 90’s rap. The Wu were on a different level then everyone else from 94-98. They were the most coveted rappers. Especially Method Man.
im a wu tang fan. been for the past 23 years, but i disagree with your comments' reference to Fox News. Fox News doesn't have any journalists who do these types of interviews. MSNBC is more mainstream and has a different style than Fox News. this doesnt mean i like this guy Ari just because I'm a Wu fan. you don't know who @ Fox News was a Wu fan back in the day. It's all about relevance and context.
WOW MYSTERY OF CHESSBOXIN IS MASTA KILLAS FIRSE VERSE EVERRR!!!!!!!!! Wow wow wow. And yes IMPOSSIBLE was lyrically brilliant!!!! “Fusion of the five elements......”
My favorite Wu joint...CHROME WHEELS...WOKE UP THIS MORNING SMOKE SOME STICKY GREEN TO GET ME STARTED CHOCOLATE TYE ALL IN MY EYE IM NEVA BROKEN HEARTED..💜.AHH MEMEORIES YO!!!
Great interview 💯. But til this day, I've always wondered why Deck is heavily slept on as a member. His verse in C.R.E.A.M for example..."So stay awake to the ways of the world cuz sh*t is deep".
These Dudes Done It Bigger Than Any Artist Out There. These Dudes Took Hip Hop International. Now Looking At That Wu Emblem Is Like Looking At The Jordan Symbol Nike Symbol Gucci Symbol Etc Etc
The Hulu series got me on an all things Wu Tang on UA-cam bringe 😁
spainman2020 yea but u already knew about Wu before so it kinda isn't as good nawmsayin.

Word up
Dare I compare to Silent Bob of Wu-Tang
Hugo Sandoval that’s a good one
True
The unsung member... much respect do
Dope interview. The interviewer was clearly a WU fan growing up.
Or he just studies all hip hop as part of his 'job'? To keep in touch with the culture so he can play his evil Mockingbird Media games on The People.
Yes he listens to hip hop.
yeh that's Ari Melber man he's a true hiphop fan. If you watch his news show, every now and then he just randomly incorporates known rap lyrics into his commentary and its hilarious!!!
@@9thchamber499 they never do their homework properly enough

@@bake30 Late reply, but I think he was saying that's what some folks do in his interviews. He didn't seem to be asking them to.
@@bearchild4459 oh okay. Great insight by you.
Your very positive, and correct I suppose. Good for them .peace
Ari is a noted WU fan
The knowledge of this group is why I love all of them. Wu tang is for the children. Wu tang clan forever.
How can hip hop be dead if Wu Tang is forever!👐
Well Said Brotha! No doubt I'm loving this Sh!t right here The Wu kicking some knowledge.
Indeed
It is dead...but wu tang is still here only a few will understand...people are zombies for the most part
st3chilly maccabee Royce da 5’9, NF, Hopsin, Joyner lucas, Joell Ortiz, Immortal technique, Logic, Tech N9Ne, it’s not dead.
Brandon Diaz Dead Prez still puts out records. Hip hop is doing just fine.
This is the best hip-hop interview ever. From interviewer asking real questions AND letting them speak. To the content of what they were speaking about. To every member having their own voice and being respectful and respected. W
He said there names with so much soul
Blessed ears bro! I caught that! 💯
Ari knows his hip hop!
Ghost’s hoodie is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Deck's verse on Triumph is probably one of the most well known verses in hip hop history.
...."The truth about life is if your not gettin' older ...your dead." ...that's wisdom...Peace Rza
The conversation in this interview is SO important
I love the love they have for each other.
You can tell that no matter what quarrels they may have had in the past, Wu-Tang will always be solidified by their bond through their experiences before and during their music.

They turned their backs on odb when he got in trouble , never even visited him in prison and played him with his contract .
I know, he was very smart as well, like quirky.
@@mikeanderson3762 oh I remember that. Why? That must of been a very dark time for him. RIP ODB
Thanks Ari for bringing WuTang to the roof, this was awesome to see and hear
Thanks! Ari, for bringing these guys on to tell their story. Bless their souls. Thanks Wu-Tang, for sharing your story. This has meaning and will help many. Cant wait to see the film.
"Impossibe" is one of my favorite Wu-bangas
"Fusion of the five elements to search for higher intelligence"
My favorite Wu track ever.. Ghostthagoat his verse is Legend
Wu-Banga is one of my favorite Wu Bangas🤣🤣🤣
What a great interview the interviewer knew mad WU tunes, so dope
Yet he ruined it at the end. "Anybody got a crime they want to confess?" He lost all respect after that....

Learn some social skills

RZA always gives me that inspiration that I need!
Much needed positivity, thank you! 💙💙💙
30 years later - these legends are now like grey wolves - older, but still dangerous in a collective.

Ari is a true fan of hip hop and wu tang clan and this is one reason I can watch his show. I also watch others and stay away from fox news.
How do you know he is a true fan of Hip Hop? He's a journalist, he's supposed to have an idea of what he's interviewing about. What's Fox News got to do with this interview?
Rza picking "Impossible" as his favorite made my night 👐🏾
Rza defo achieved his goal of making a movie outta every album every song is a movie of real raw life unfiltered!
Where is Gza the genius? The human dictionary.
Where is he? GZA The GENIUS IS A REAL DICTIONARY AND A TRUE SCIENTIST OF THE WORDS
He’s always busy teaching now, mainly in colleges. Jester Valentine, peace!
Rza also says he’s on tour this time
He's probably teaching a class at some University back east! Prof. GZA
Not just the Gza, but Where's meth? I noticed that once it showed the whole group. I was like "that ain't all of 'em."
Great interview. I wish Cappadonna was given the opportunity to speak more. Great interview.
Who would thumps down a legendary group in an engaging conversation with substance.
'an unspotted life on the mic is old age'..gza already spoke about in older godz what rza mentions..getting older means you've done something right at least. It's a blessing.
When I see and hear all the pop hop from today's music I just dig into my Wu- Playlist hip hop is not death because Wu-Tang is forever 👍🏽
These dudes got me through so Rough times deadass
love ghost so humble and aware and knows when to and when not to speak
15:25 J. Cole segment
'Every 20 years there'll be an artist [J.Cole] that gets it [old/new hiphop] both'
i need this bruh!!
I'm obsessed with the new wave generation being put on tracks with the old school. Nas, Gang Starr, Wu Tang... Much respect.
I instantly loved the karate theme in wu tang. It's a mystical vibe.
Been a fan since early 90's.
Wu tang forever.
Kung Fu...not Karate.
i know this has to be a pet project for Ari to bring hip-hop and wu-tang interviews out into a light and god bless him for it
I grow up with wu-tang .....one love from Morocco to New York the cradle of rap
Not even TBC could get these legends together! Epic work team Melber!
Great interview. Great questions. "White America tells the black mans story. Scared of the Black man. Ignorance. Love the talk about Stress. Stress kills us. We are expected to be Strong. We cant be weak. We cant cry. We cant release. Well im glad that is changing. I would hope that we can start speaking more, crying more, releasing anger in a positive way. WU!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, Rza made some brilliant points. Gotta learn how to manage that energy in a peaceful/positive/productive way!
True that's one good thing that will come from this
Wu-Tang has DEPTH and have always been unapologetically themselves. That’s why they so interesting.
I remembered everybody in 1993 would say "rap is not music ,its just talking " . This was a big thing. I got in allot of fights because i liked rap.
Lol I love this interview. Interviewer was vibin with the Wu! Lmao.. Ghost was laughin when he said “Bring the Effin Ruckus!”🤣🤣🤣
Ghost was super high!!! 😂
@@mauricemartin7026 lol yeah he was😂
Great interview. Thanks Ari for bringing the Wu to 30 Roc.
Grateful for this interview! kudos Ari Melber!! Melber--you are a HIP HOP HEAD...I hear it in your voice....haha
Such a beautiful interview 🙏🏾
Rza is so right about Impossible , one of the greatest Wu tracks ... one of the best Ghost lyrics ever
Ari got the best interview.
I was born in 1980 and grew up on 90’s rap. The Wu were on a different level then everyone else from 94-98. They were the most coveted rappers. Especially Method Man.
Lmao at U-God hatin on chess after Masta Killah gave you his heartfelt story on why he loves it... 😁 😁 😁 09:06
The way Ghostface looks at Masta when politics is mentioned is like “ you gonna school em” or what?”
That was great, comic book nostalgia and everything. Love these people, excellent artists.
Imagine if Fox News had interviewed The Wu 😂

GZA - Animal Planet is one of my all time favorite HipHop song period!!!!!!!!!!Deck always been one of the coolest
It's dope
Rza dropping so many jewels lord
Wu tang for ever sun!!! Rza is tru master at wisdom you can tell the guy interviewing is a tru fan of the W
What a great interview. All things Wu.

WOW MYSTERY OF CHESSBOXIN IS MASTA KILLAS FIRSE VERSE EVERRR!!!!!!!!! Wow wow wow. And yes IMPOSSIBLE was lyrically brilliant!!!! “Fusion of the five elements......”
That's dope you know that ....
“I got like 16 names man” lmao🤣
Agreed Cappa Donna, yall should definitely perform Wu Gambino's all the time
They did a show in Philly with rage back in the 90s .
Best show ever !
U god said he thought the whole kung fu gimmick was wack in another interview! 😂
Put the documentary on Netflix I don't wanna get ShowTime just to watch it
It's on Showbox
The Legends I’m from the BayArea and Have mad respect form Wu and them opening door 🚪 for many artist Much respect 💯
I love how U-God and Inspectah deck are reminiscing on the old days lol @17:30
the most influential, successful rap group of all time, and they still together im glad i grew up on the wu since 92 14 years in the making
Rza gives off the best vibes bro.
All I can think about is ODB. 😢
I love these brothas! Wu, Mobb Deep, Pun raised me. Much respect, peace!

I'm jealous that Ari gets to be the one to interview them.
I wish they interviewed more rap artists like this. Take the art more seriously!! Explore the minds behind the culture
And shout out to the host for his knowledge 👍🏾👍🏾
Great interview 🔥
Give us season 2! We waiting!
I could have sworn I seen U-God talking greasy on VLAD TV. Now he on his humble lol
I think he was referring to that in the beginning when he said he had anger problems he had to work on lol
EXACCCCTTTLY! YOU Echoing my SAME SENTIMENTS💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯HE WAS SOOOO FRICKIN BITTER&Hostile🤔🙄😒😒😒😒😔😏😏😏😏
If he wants to get paid, which he does, which they all do, they'll put aside differences to make that Wu money.

Human Beings are Beautiful. Thank you for this incredible conversation. Evolution is the Key!
I like this interviewer.
U-God is like, "Hulu?"
U-God: "I hate ignorance." *Spends the entire interview mistaking kung fu for karate* Haha. Wu Tang Forever.
@Keith Branch ......??? What lol
Ok, Ari you win. No other member of the pundit class is anywhere near cool enough to bring out the Wu in full force.
Well...4members shy of "full force"
Impossible with Ghost, Rza and U God
I love this but I really love a man who is full of knowledge and can teach me new things
Great interview 💯. But til this day, I've always wondered why Deck is heavily slept on as a member. His verse in C.R.E.A.M for example..."So stay awake to the ways of the world cuz sh*t is deep".
Good interview for real Salute 💯
Summer 93 was special. They had not one but a few hits that summer.... METHOD MAN, PROTECT YA NECK, MYSTERY OF CHESSBOXING, AND CREAM 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wu tang forever I got all ur albums (cds) favorite album for me 36 chambers..
Wu-Tang Forever
Nice job Ari in interviewing legends 👍🏾
