    Don't ever admit you don't know who Wu Tang is in public. GZA (pronounced Jiz-ah). Your next homework assignment is to learn all the members of Wu Tang, all the solo albums the put out. Start building up a new playlist of respectable and influential rappers.

    This video contains 2 songs, first beat is shadowboxin and the second beat it's called 4th chamber.... Fun fact Wu-tang is the biggest brand in hip hop and one of the biggest in music... You go anywhere in the world and you will see people rocking their gear..... You should go down the Wu Tang rabbit hole a lot of great music the group and the solo projects of their members you have at least 20 good albums to react to

    This is Shadowboxin/4thChamber. Video version only. Two different songs mixed together for the one video. Shadowboxin song is Gza feat. Method Man and 4th Chamber is Gza feat. Ghostface Killah, Killah Priest, and Rza. Both songs are from the Gza-Liquid Swords album. Very dope album. Don't sleep. Rappers in video order Method Man, Gza, (Shadowboxin) then Ghostface Killah, Killah Priest, Rza (4th Chamber). Not sure why they did the video with two songs. maybe two different videos wasn't in the budget. But the video is dope either way. Glad you decided to educate yourself to the "Wu". Better late than ever. But you have a long way to go young man. Never seen a video of yours before, and hopefully I will see you seek out more gems like this. It will benefit you. trust. Peace to all, and stay safe

The whole Liquid Swords album is a must listen eargasm for any lover of hip-hop, plain and simple. And nobody says "Gee zee ay". It's "Jiz-ah", plain and simple.
    Also, the "Why did Judas rat to the Romans while Jesus slept?" sounded familiar because the music video includes the 4th Chamber that you reacted to from the album two weeks before this.

    I have so many requests for you! All of Enter the Wu (36 Chambers). And if you like Wu, you may like Mobb Deep. I can almost guarantee you've heard at least one of their tracks (Shook Ones Pt. II). The Infamous is a classic album. Almost every track is hot fire. I recommend Survival Of The Fittest, Eye for an Eye, Give Up The Goods off that album. On Hell on Earth, my jams are Drop a Gem on 'Em, G.O.D. Pt. III, Hell on Earth. Their subject matter is pretty heavy but the East Coast in the 90s was top notch. Nas' It Was Written (The Message, Affirmative Action, If I Ruled the World) was amazing too. SO many classics.

    Young King. Do yourself a favor and watch a documentary on the Wu Tang Clan. This will allow you to know all of the members by name and why they are noted to be the most impactful group in hip hop. You would also understand why they are STILL considered the most impactful hip hop group next to Public Enemy.
    To add a response to your comment about Gen Z music in comparison to Gen X music. The modern music has a dumbing down effect. It has been figured out and used for the purpose of perpetuating a mindless response. Just to trigger a deadpan feeling, almost like an opiate. Music can inspire love, anger, happiness, and sadness. It can also trigger a docile mood or a confrontational mood. It can promote fratricide, or it can direct you toward a different enemy. Today's music promotes fraticide, and it does not inspire its listeners to think about their condition of life. Its hypnotic property lulls people to sleep, destructive behavior, or at least it desensitizes young folks to not want to consider changing conditions for the better. It lacks a lot in the production and this adds to the degenerative hypnotic property that feeds the brain frequency on a low vibration. This is a large amount of today's music....NOT ALL, but a lot of it.
