      U-God has never received his due respect. I remember when Winter Warz (from Ironman) broke on the radio in NYC - even though Cap bodied the track, U-God received a lot of hype for the way he set the song off.

    Cilvaringz worked on that OUATIS album for years. It was not a Wu tang Clan album. Not at all. Cilva promised he was making it for the fans for several years. Then decided he would keep it from them. Rza had nothing to do with that album and nobody knew it would be presented as a WTC album. It's a joke.

    • @Niwde8411
      @Niwde8411 7 років тому

      Truth. RZA's a fraud. He realized that album was way moor closer to the Clan's original sound than "A Better Tomorrow" was & decided to do that shady move of "auctioning" it so the public wouldn't have immediate access to it. The terms of purchasing it is that the owner can't sell or distribute the music or for 88 years but can still play it to others. They could & should put it up on a website like SoundCloud & just not have it available for download.

I was a little surprised nobody mentioned Tekitha when Rza asked if anybody would mention an obscure vocalist BUT I'm glad they didn't dodge the Better Tomorrow criticism subject. He worded it well enough to not get Rza into defense mode but didn't act like it wasn't/isn't a real issue amongst Wu fans. Good shit, yo!

    So, U-God and GZA are not on the album for political reasons? WTF. Did they kneel? This is not a Wu-Tang Album. This is another Math album being executively spun by RZA for RZA's bankroll. That being said, peace to Abbott; peace to the Gods.

      Powerule good point man, just seen the track listing and on that front its not really a Wu album, Dec only got his bars in that one tune they already released! Very disappointing, but it still sounds Heat!! Glad Mathematics is producing it, RZA lost or 'evolved' past that Wu sound

    • @Powerule23
      @Powerule23 7 років тому +2

      Jim Rodriguez + I think this will be a good album, particularly for Wu fans. It will hold us over until more material drops. Overlooked, is Masta Killer is dropping a studio album this week. Hopefully, it won't be as disappointing - at least for me - as his last release. He's easily one of my favorite members, but seems to struggle in recent years with his solo work.
      As for RZA, things arguably went south on 8 Diagrams; at least that's when most fans complained. The irony is when Ghost goes out a does an experimental collaboration, such as with Badbadnotgood, it's hailed as being worthy of making the earth shake. Yet, RZA was experimenting with the same type of new sound on 8 Diagrams and only receives shade. I don't know what to make of RZA; he clearly knows the fanbase want's another Enter the 36 and Forever - he either doesn't have any gas left in that tank, or is determined to be a soundtrack producer.

    RZA's a fraud. "Once Upon A Time In Shaolin" was originally to be the 2nd album from Cilvaringz. He realized that album was way moor closer to the Clan's original sound than "A Better Tomorrow" was & convinced Cilvaringz to make it a "RZA Presents..." type of album so as to make it look like he was part of the Creative process. Then RZA decided to do that shady move of "auctioning" it so the public wouldn't have immediate access to it. The terms of purchasing it is that the owner can't sell or distribute the music or for 88 years but can still play it to others. They could & should put it up on a website like SoundCloud & just not have it available for download. For RZA to go this hard because someone made better beats than him, but only because he was chasin' the sound RZA himSelf Created , all to not get publicly shitted on is sad. Why the need for this so-called evolution when it's the very reason the last 2 Clan albums were trash? Why can't he just go back to the Soul-sampling boom bap that Kanye & Just Blaze tried to bite? That's what EVERYBODY that loves the Wu-Tang Clan wants & what rap music needs right now moor than ever. djbooth.net/news/entry/2015-12-01-wu-tang-album-conspiracy

    Stop saying it's "the new Wu album" - it's a Mathematics Presents album. 4th Disciple is thinking about doing this now. True Master will probably be pissed since he's locked up and hasn't produced anything since the KRS collab Meta-Historical in 2011. In my opinion this should have been a Wu-Elements album with Wu members on it. This isn't a Wu album. Some members aren't even on it but Redman on 3-4 tracks. RZA is promoting this wrong on purpose.

    • @Powerule23

      cbfwebs + Exactly. Basically, this is just another Math album with a concentration of Wu-members, as opposed to a few Wu features. Math's first two joints are fire - Hell, Love, or Right, and The Problem. But no, this is not a Wu-Tang studio album - U-God and GZA don't even appear.

      It is the new Wu-Tang album dumbass. The album title is literally Wu-Tang Clan : The Saga Continues. What about that title says it's not a wu tang album? not every member was on every wu tang album. what makes you think just because math produced the whole album that makes it a mathematics album? RZA produced everything on Liquid Swords and that wasn't called RZA presents GZA. and that album is still a wu tang album. maybe you should call them up and tell them how you want to change their album titles because you're butthurt not all the members appeared. whiny ass fake ass fan

    • @Powerule23
      @Powerule23 7 років тому

      ISayStupidThingsSometimes + The fact that you have to call people dumbass speaks to your intelligence. Actually, the title is "Wu Tang: The Saga Continues." This is a Math album that was manipulated into a Wu Tang Clan album. Math has been working on this independently for the past few years. Name one Wu-Tang CLAN album that didn't have a advanced press release. Why is it that only RZA and Math are promoting this album? How come there is no balance among the Clan members on the album? Why are there so many non-Clan features, when they've only used features from other artist on two albums? Name one Wu Tang Clan album where all of the members don't appear, except for ODB. (Cap is not a charter member, so he doesn't count). Do you have a physical copy of this album? If you do, you will clearly see that it's a Math album. Are you aware that Math previously dropped a Wu Tang Clan & Friends album? All that being said, it is what it is, and if RZA wants to twist this into a Wu Tang Clan project so be it.
      Liquid Swords is not a Wu Tang Clan album; it's GZA's solo album, just like the other members had solo albums produced by RZA. Do you know the difference between Wu Tang and Wu Tang Clan as far as the group is concerned?

    I don’t understand these fans...But then again I get it. You have supporters, Fans, Fanatics & Groupies. If you research this project you will find that it’s actually a lot of Wu affiliates not to happy bout this album. I’m just surprised that rza allowed it happen this way. The beats wasn’t rza beats. And here comes this kid basically made a small fortune using the Wu voices over his beats, Without even breaking more bread. Sure cilvaringz paid them....But not after that 2 mill splitter with rza. Yo Killah priest killah sin will never ever see 1million off an album. But here comes this super groupie (Cilvaringz) cash in!!!!

      Don't hate on Cilvaringz for this. You got to remember he's a Rza protege. Just about everything he does is cleared through Rza. It's easy to be mad, because you got an outsider cashing in when there are plenty of others that deserve the shine, but at the end of the day it all comes down to the entrepreneurial spirit to move forward on business concepts. It's not just about making beats and rhymes; there's way more to it than this.
