Wu Tang Mix - RZA

Disadvantages: Took 3 Years To Make, A Couple Of Weak Tracks, Gets Outdated To Quick

...I was just thinking to myself doesn't time fly when your having fun, but then I realized I'm bored as hell and I'm talking bollocks as usual. Since my Exams Results I have been waiting and waiting for college to start. During this period I have been listening to a lot of music and one album that came into my music loving grasp, was that of the Wu-Tang Clan and there 2000 release - The W. As I had played all my other CD's out I decided to give this album another go and I'm glad I did. I remembered why I bought this album in the first place and why it was top of my collection for a long time.

Advantages: Hard-hitting rap with hard-hitting lyrics & good tunes!!
Disadvantages: few fill in tracks

...Yes, yes, yes!! we love it! with great catchy tunes and big banging base lines, hip hop and Wu-tang fans alike will not be disappointed with this purchase!
