Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) 1993 Album

Wu-Tang Clan

There are probably a few different 'classics' fans of hip hop don't find classics themselves unless they are conformists and/or like everything. I am neither of those and this is definitely one that I've always found surprising that it is often considered the best hip hop album ever! I've given this album more than enough time, so much so that my rating of it has increased, but some of the production for me just has a lack of colour, and despite some excellent rapping, half way through some of the tracks I find myself skipping to the next. The monotonous beats just ain't my thing and I don't quite get how they do it for so many rap fans. Maybe the rating I've given it is harsh, and it is a case of great expectations leading to disappointment, but I've never dug this album, or many of the songs enough to put it on any pedestal. Best Tracks: Bring Da Ruckus, Shame on a Nigga, Da Mystery of Chessboxin, Wu-Tang: 7th Chamber, Pt. 2
