4 out of 5 stars Incredible.......2007-05-19

The Rza out does himself again, and the Wu-Tang family comes out blazing. If your a fan of the iconic rap group this is a must have. If you have any G-Unit cd's, please return, or throw them out. Get all Wu-Tang joints. If your a fan of this type of music please checkout The visionaries.

2 out of 5 stars What??.......2006-10-27

Ok. I love the wu. i repeat, i love the wu. i don't understand how anybody could give this album 5 stars. it is mediocre at best. the best track is "never again" by remedy. if you think this album is 5 star material, then you havent experienced true wu tang. if you want the real wu sound get these albums:
1. think differently presents: Wu-Tang meets Indie Culture
2. enter the wu-tang - 36 chambers (DUH!!)
3. Raekwon-only built 4 cuban linx
4. Bronze Nazareth - The Great Migration (My favorite album right now)

dont get stung by the swarm - burn this album from someone else's copy. if you're gonna buy something, buy the bronze nazareth or the indie culture album


peace

5 out of 5 stars Universal Parliment.......2006-05-03

4 out of 5 stars Killa Beez On Da Swarm !!!.......2005-01-06

The formal introduction of Wu-Tang Clan's extended family known as The Killa Beez.
1-The Legacy (Royal Fam) Good song. Timbo King kills the mic.
2-Concrete Jungle (Sunz of Man) Not the first time people heard Sunz Of Man. But everyone was mostly familiar with Killah Priest. This album was actually released on the same day that Sunz Of Man's "The Last Shall Be First" came out.
3-Co-Defendants (Shyheim & Hell Razah)I first heard Razah on the song before this one, and when I heard him here again with Shyheim I was convinced. Razah is my favorite Sunz Of Man member.
Sorry Priest.
4-S.O.S.-Shoot On Sight.(Inspectah Deck & Steetlife) As usual, nothin but fire from INS and Street.
5-Execute Them (Wu-Tang Clan w/ Streetlife) Perhaps THE best song, and not because it is a Wu-Tang song. Raekwon, Masta Killa and Inspectah Deck all kill it with a hot chorus from Streetlife.
6-Bronx War Stories (A.I.G.) This group, whose name stands for Allah Is God are from the Bronx. The two members are Allah Wise and Darkim B Allah. This was the first time I heard of them (and I'm from the Bronx.)
7-And Justice For All (RZA as Bobby Digital w/ KillArmy and Method Man) This was the first time RZA performed under his Bobby Digital alias. I know alot of people were surprised that this new MC (Bobby) sounded alot like RZA. KillArmy (specially Killa Sin) are great and Method (as usual) is pure fire.
8-Punishment (Black Knights Of The North Star) First appearance from these west-coast Killa Beez. Pretty Impressive. This group would later separate into two groups: Black Knights (Holocaust, Doc Doom, Crisees, and Monk) and North Star (Christ Bearer & Meeko). Holocaust absolutely destroys the mic in his verse of this song, which is the first verse.
9-Bastards (Ruthless Bastards) Little is known of this group. This is one of their few appearances. The only members I know are Appocalipps and Pearl Handlez.
10-On The Strength (The Beggaz) I know even less of this group. The song is crazy tho. Alot of high science.
11-Cobra Clutch (Ghostface Killah) Do I even have to stress how hot his song is? I mean, it is The Ghost i am talking about. NUFF SAID.
12-Never Again (Remedy) First appearance by this white (Jewish) MC from Staten Island. Very Knowledgable song about his roots and the whole holocaust experience. You know if a white boy is down with Wu-Tang, he GOTTA be nice.
13-Where Was Heaven (Wu-Syndicate) PURE HOTNESS. these virgina cats are fire. They actually known some of the members of Wu-Tang for awhile. Before Wu-Tang were signed and they used to do shows in Virginia, people looked at Wu-Tang like aliens from outta space. But Wu-Syndicate (Crime Syndicate) at the time, showed them love. They swore to each other who ever got put on first, they would introduce the other to the world. Sure enugh, Wu-Tang got fame first and several years later, they introduced this group who changed their name to Wu-Syndicate outta respect. Thats Peace.
14-97 Mentality (Cappadonna w/ Ghostface Killah) This song definately shows Cappadonna's freestyle skills in the same fashion that he did on Ghostface's "Winter Wars" from the IRONMAN album. (Tip: Cappadonna taught Inspectah Deck how to rhyme. Cappa's name was Original)
15-Fatal Sting (Black Knights Of The North Star) The second performance from these west-coast killa beez is the last song of the album. Listen to Doc Doom and Crisees' verses on this song. Pure Hot Sh*t.

4 out of 5 stars good Wu compilation.......2004-12-09

For only having 6 of the 9 original members and a bunch of Wu-Affiliates I wasn't expecting this to be as good as it was. Only has 1 really weak track with 3 ok ones, the rest are good or better with 2 classics. It's got some gangsta $h!+ and some deep songs too. A must have album for Wu-Tang fans.

#1 - 7.5 (royal fam)
#2 - 7.5 (sunz of man -- prodigal sun, 62nd assassin, hell razah -- no killah priest)
#3 - 8 (shyheim, hell razah)
#4 - 9 (inspectah deck, street life)
#5 - 8.5 (raekwon, inspectah deck, street life, masta killa)
#6 - 9 (AIG)
#7 - 9 (rza, killarmy, method man)
#8 - 6 (black knights)
#9 - 7.5 (ruthless bastards)
#10 - 8.5 (beggaz -- deep song)
#11 - 10 (classic by ghostface killah)
#12 - 9.5 (remedy -- very deep song)
#13 - 9 (wu-syndicates -- deep song)
#14 - 10 (classic by Cappadonna & Ghostface Killah -- great beat)
#15 - 8 (black knights)
