Method Man 17. Conclusion When The Wu-Tang Clan dropped their debut LP in 1993 they created a blueprint for Hip- Hop for years to come. The album was immediately recognized as a landmark album, with its raw production and explicit lyrics drenched in martial-arts symbolism and humour. The group, obviously fond of kung-fu movies, renamed their Staten Island home base 'Shoalin' as a tribute to their favorite 1978 movie 'The 36th Chamber of Shaolin'. Musical mastermind and ringmaster The RZA used loads of sound bites and samples from kung fu movies for his bleak, raw Wu-Tang sound. The Wu-Tang Clan collective proved a creative crew, releasing many solo albums of their core members (most notable: Method Man, Genius/GZA, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah and the late Ol'Dirty Bastard!), yet the success of their first album as a group was never to be topped. While it's safe to say you can't even measure the heaviness of the Wu-Tang we tried to come as close as we could with our heavyweight 180 grams vinyl pressing of their landmark album. Review: The great hope of the East Coast. - By 1993, West Coast G-funk and gangsta rap was dominating the hip-hop airwaves. Dr. Dre, having paved the way with his group NWA and his solo classic The Chronic, owned the hip-hop world along with Suge Knight and his Death Row records. Tupac Shakur was already making waves. The East Coast as yet had little to no notable rappers to its name; but here, on this low-budget posse record, the seeds of the East/West rivalry were sown as they wrenched the focus away from Compton. To this day, no rap album sounds like Enter The Wu-Tang, and no rap group sounds like they do. Nine of them, all MCs, headed by the RZA, each with their own styles, colliding into an astonishing, snarling beast of a record. With a tiny budget to work with, RZA crafts sawn-off, raw beats that punish the listener. None of the rough edges are smoothed off, leaving pounding jams that lack the richness that G-funk boasted. What replaced it was bizarre kung-fu film references. The album, unified by its sparse sound, allows the nine Wu-Tang MCs room to stretch, and each of them has their own style, from Ghostface Killah's high-pitched yelp to Method Man's stoned ramble, all the way through to the utter insanity of ODB. Ghostface opens the record on the clattering 'Bring Tha Ruckus,' a clear statement of intent; his rhymes about a 'head rush' and being 'tougher than an elephant tusk' already establishing how bizarre and unique the group's rhymes were. 'Shame On The N****' pushes ODB to the front as his marble-mouthed style seems both threatening and endearing. Meanwhile, 'C.R.E.A.M.' was so influential that its title became a rap slang word in and of itself. From here, virtually every member of the crew - particularly The GZA, Raekwon and ODB - would craft era-defining solo albums of their own, but it all started here and arguably, this was the most unified album the group produced both conceptually and as far as quality. Review: Awesome. - WU-TANG! Top notch tunes

The great hope of the East Coast.

From the very moment you hear Ghostface' voice..
You know this album is going to be crazy from track one, the moment you hear "GHOSTFACE! Catch the blast of a hype verse" Track after track it's brilliant, Clan in Da Front has probably the greatest intro to a track ever. With each member complimenting each other's style so well, Method Man with his comical wordplay, Ghostface's abilities to tell stories, GZA dropping knowledge, it all just fits. It's brilliant. The production almost sounds unfinished, but that turns out to be a great thing, because it just fits so perfectly. You have to listen, words on a screen can't do the album justice! Hip Hop classic!

Absolute classic and frankly a must have...
If you are a fan of Method Man and Raekwon then this will obviously already be a good one for you. However as an album it lays bare the level of skill within the clan and their styles. You can easily see in this album the calibre of the crew, like Inspectah Deck who goes on to lay one of my favourite raps in 'Triumph' in a subsequent album. Although it was recorded in '93 it's still as relevant as ever.

Raw, real, revolutionär – das Fundament des East Coast Hip-Hop
Dieses Album hat das Rap-Game verändert. Roh produziert, düster, lyrisch kompromisslos – Enter The Wu-Tang ist ein Meilenstein. Die Energie der Tracks ist bis heute spürbar, der Einfluss auf ganze Generationen unbestreitbar. Die CD liefert satten Klang und kommt ohne unnötigen Schnickschnack – genau wie der Wu-Tang Clan selbst. Klassiker mit Kultstatus.

Cambiaron las reglas
Wu-Tang Clan es como lo mejor de todo. Cuando combinas los flows de Das EFX, la rabia de Onyx, la magia lírica de KRS-One, la energía de Lords of the Underground, las producciones innovadoras de Tribe Called Quest y los versátiles estilos de rap de Freestyle Fellowship, aún no tienes suficiente para describir a Wu-Tang Clan. Es más que eso. Un proyecto muy ambicioso de la mente maestra RZA, un álbum como éste debería haber sido un fracaso. Nadie había intentado nunca hacer un álbum con 9 raperos, no había reglas sobre cómo hacerlo. El Wu-Tang Clan estableció las reglas. Por lo demás, decir que el envío sin duda ha sido espectacular por parte de Amazon y el CD llegó rápido y en perfecto estado.

Etiquetas invertidas
Me encantó el producto, el único detalle es que tiene las etiquetas del lado A y B invertidas, pero no afecta de ninguna forma la escucha. Si vas a comprar este producto, ten muy en cuenta que el volumen es mucho más bajo que el de otros discos de vinilo, así que tendrás que amplificar más la señal, si no tienes problemas con eso, es un excelente disco, un clásico del Hip Hop
