5 out of 5 stars you are late.......2006-07-11

listen, if you are trying to enjoy this album and you are not in your 30's, then forget about it. if you did not cop this album in 1991, forget about it. you will not understand. i read some clown say the beats are old, the music is not this it is not that.......but for east coast 1991, the music was what it was.

1 out of 5 stars I'm glad I sold my copy to a stupid backpacker!!!.......2006-05-20

People riding the bozack love this LP, but the plain truth is that it's wack. Gza is one of the dopest emcees of all time, but his 1st LP along with the 1st ish Rza did is garbage. This isn't even the o.g. pressing version. "Pass the Bone" was a decent cut, but was a throwaway from other sessions and leverage for Cold Chillin' to re-release this album after the Wu-tang Clan emerged.

I originally got this CD in the dollar bin at the record store and hated it. I tried so hard to like it, but it failed. A year or two later when the Wu came out I dissmissed them originally because I knew Gza was part of their crew. But, in those couple years growth Gza grew leaps and bounds along with Rza.

I eventually sold my copy on Ebay for an obseen amount of money to some kid overseas. Good for me, not for the guy who'd never heard the album.

If you want a classic album... get his 2nd LP "Liquid!"

5 out of 5 stars GZA - Words From The Genius.......2006-01-02

This album is the best GZA album. This is the CLASSIC GZA stuff. I got this cd also. Its great. Its old schooll hiphop here. The first Wu related album to be released. Trust me hear the cd, its straight banging. This cd sounds nothing like the other Wu stuff. It doesnt sound like "Liquid Swords" so beware of that. But its bangin none the less. Check it out now! If you can find it anywhere!!! Itll be hard if you dont have it already.
