    Masta Killa verse here is a the best rendition of any of the Wutang covers in this show. Not only does he sound like him, but all the tonal changes and vowel pronounciations are so on point. Well done to that dude.

      Gza and Inspectah's actors are really dead on too. What's wild is that the actor for Ghostface sounds nothing like him talking, but gets into it when he's rapping.

      @@darionjackson2599 stop what? I'm not hating, it's my honest opinion! I grew up listening to the Wu and know each members cadence, flow and style extremely well.. The cast of the show bar the dudes playing Ghost, GZA, ODB and maybe Dave East can't emulate these characters properly. The personalities in the Clan are big plus the heavy NYC influence is hard to portray if you're not familiar with it... Again it's an opinion you can take it or leave it..

Even masta whose flow is calm but this was the track he screamed on but was still very articulate. Thats the first wu banga. One thing they need to showcase is how wu mastered their finishing line of their rhymes to complete their bard. Gza style. U hods verse was orobzbly cut. In this version it cuts iff with elpty dpace sounded incomplete
