Album Notes & Community Reviews

Infamously delayed for years after RZA's basement studio flooded and destroyed the original instrumental tapes, the legendary Wu-Tang Clan lyricist finally delivered his highly anticipated solo debut. Utilizing a diverse array of producers, the record effectively highlights his reliably sharp, highly complex street narratives over dusty, funk-laced boom bap beats.
