With it being a yucky snowy day, I figured it would be a good time to look at one of the most influential groups in the rap game.

Fresh from Staten Island or as I like to say Shaolin, the Wu-Tang Clan has been around since 1991 making albums and producing several big name artists such as Method Man, Ghostface Killah, the now deceased Ol’ Dirty Bastard (ODB), Raekwon, etc.

Their music is what real rap should sound like. You can really feel where they’re coming from. Aside from the strong lyrics is the great scenery in some of these classic videos. They are shot great and it allows anyone from this area to appreciate things even more.

Here are some of their best work:

Wu-Tang Clan: “Protect Ya Neck“  well produced with classic shots in the background. Very strong stuff.

Wu-Tang Clan: “C.R.E.AM.” a classic track in every sense. Cash rules everythin’ around me CREAM hit the money, dollah, dollah bill yoooooo!

Wu-Tang Clan: “Ice Cream” A dope ass track. No rapper today can sound better describing women than how Meth, Raekwon and the Clan do it in this song. Unreal lyrics. Untouchable.

Method Man: “Bring The Pain” very smooth popular track from Method Man’s debut album back in 1994. Great video. Who shoots stuff on a local bus? Sick.

Wu-Tang Clan: “Bring Da Ruckus” I don’t know how the person who made this video did it but just have to agree with general sentiment. It fucking works!

Wu-Tang Clan: “Gravel Pit [2001]“ How much did it cost to make this video?!?!?!?!?! Omfg!!!!! :rofl:

Wu-Tang Clan: “Protect Ya Neck Live 1993“  They all rocked the mic in this early performance at The Uptown Comedy Club.

I’d link up more but we’d be here a while because there’s only so much you can cover with Wu-Tang. They also released a very popular clothing line called Wu-Wear which has brought in plenty of extra income over the last decade. It’s mad expensive but if you have a little extra cash, there is an excellent selection to choose from. Who knows? I might be sporting a little something something one of these days.

We’ll just have to wait and see.
