wu tang clan has produced a higher volume of amazing hip hop records than any other artist in the whole genre. i mean these guys came out and totally blew everyone's minds and changed the face of hip hop. its still unthinkable how 9 of the greatest mc's alive all grew up in the same area and decided to start a hip hop supergroup, led by one of the easily top 5 best producers ever, the rza. wu tang totally defined my high school years too, so many times me and my friends would be driving around in my 90' toyota corolla, smoking pot, and banging out heads to "bring da muthafuckin ruckus" inbetween bad brains and black flag records. they and public enemy i think were definitley the artists that knocked down the walls between hip hop and indie/punk fans, getting kids who would never even think twice about hip hop to really become interested in it.
on that note, whatre your favorite wu tang records?
my top 10:
1. raekwon-only built for cuban linx
2. wu tang clan-enter the 36 chambers
3. gza-liquid swords
4. ghostface killah-supreme clientele
5. ol dirty bastard-return to the 36 chambers
6. ghostface killah-iron man
7. method man-tical
8. ol dirty bastard-nigga please
9. ghostface killah-fishscale
10. gza-legend of the liquid swords
