[daniel197530864]

Cappadonna at his finest. Starving hungry and ripping a looped sample to shreds! Ghost's hook is a killer finisher!

[PirateKingDK]

thnx 4 supporting real muzik!!!

[WattaFewl]

whats the difference between wu tang clan and wu tang killa beez? all i see is that this record was produced by RZA but other than that im in the dark.

[MrMacv1983]

@WattaFewl wu tang is the nine members, killa beez is the rest of their entourage, cappas not one of the origional nine, that's the difference. Knowledge due peace mac v , Maine

[smith7g]

Yo why Cappa so fukin Sik!!

[exotiqblend28]

INSTEAD OF CATCHING BODIES NIGGAZ NOT KEEPING IT REAL!!!!!!

[charityhead]

In 1997 I was listening to the wu for sure. In 3997 they will hear the Wu. WuTang Forever Muthatruckers.

[lubui2583]

[Raffy85100]

[vasderman]

the 5 percent nation, famed religion of God

A royal statement proclaimed, so now listen applaud

supreme mathematics for the masses even and odd

supreme alphabet for those who study holy quran

I make sense out of everything you don't even know

fuse my eyes with these lyrics and you blinded by the show

visceral words on a curving sound verbal hordes liquid swords

drives me cutting off the nouns and hand it to you cookies who are from the same crop. no originality all your lyrics be shopped.

[SubliminalMinded2011]

heavy-weight lyric never lost 1 calorie,

I'm soon to be seen on the t.v. screen,

Gambino Cappuccino to the afro-sheen.

[baker500877]

i was born with a 93 mentality and i still remain at these years, fuck 2011

[TheTeenageMuffin]

i hate the fact that no one raps to samples anymore :/

[airvucen]

@TheTeenageMuffin De la Soul used to sample a lot

[JaLomangino]

@TheTeenageMuffin Umm EVERYONE raps on sampled beats these days.

[TheTeenageMuffin]

@JaLomangino yeah but they add kicks and snares and other shit. this is just the original sample. nothing more.

[JaLomangino]

@TheTeenageMuffin Well its a looped section of it, but that happens today too some samples just dont sound good with drums overtop of them, I ofcourse am not referring to mainstream music using just samples to rhyme over but their are some artists who still do.

[rsharrieff]

@TheTeenageMuffin : Pure genius not to add drums, if u ask me. Nothing left but ur rhyme skills. Listen how they rhyme in a melody, like how Jill Scott actually sings to the melody of the music. I loved this shit when it was out...

[Tarastar1983]

@TheTeenageMuffin What do you mean? People always rap to samples?!

[JayChillProductionz]

@TheTeenageMuffin i do all day and still make bangin beats with smaples :)

[TheTeenageMuffin]

@JayChillProductionz do you sample beats...and not add drums to em?

[JayChillProductionz]

@TheTeenageMuffin depends on sample holmes

[misterlestrade]

@TheTeenageMuffin they do, what you talkin about? 

[stillshaolin88]

@TheTeenageMuffin MOST hip hop songs use samples!

[MrSethElkins]

@TheTeenageMuffin or if they do, it's straight up GARBAGE. who are these assholes sitting in booths out there thinking "yeah, now THAT'S what i want my music to sound like..."? it's like they have not been listening to hip-hop at all for their entire lives.

[KIFTROMANIAC]

@MrSethElkins CHECK MY BEATS OUT,I SAMPLE MOST THE TIME,N ONLLY MAKE SYNTH SHIT WHEN A RAPPER ASKS ME TO DO IT FOR HIM.....

[BishopOcelot]

keep me on point for my four digit salary lol

[Oriedo]

This is a good video foreal.''Cappadonna''.''Wu-Tan­g Clan''.

[MrSlik25]

HOT 97 IS STR8 ASSCHEEKS!!!

[socillizt4life]

The new millenium has been weak as fuck for 'real' hip hop.There's still some good shit below the surface but back in the day you didn't even have too go that far underground for great hip hop.De la soul & Public enemy got played on radio 1 for fucksake when welcome to the terrordome came out!It's a shame that hip hop will never see the talent of those years again.Ultramagnetic Mcs,critical beatdown was the start of the golden era,but Company flows,funcrusher plus was the last CLASSIC Lp,IMO;(

[illagen1]

these guys were so official .. fck the new school trash. early 90s 4 life!!!!

[Evolved7s]

[DJKILLDMURDERERZ]

[fukwaynecampaign2]

FBI tried to infiltrate Wu Tang by implementing Cappadonna's manager into the group, which RZA later noticed and made Cappa fire him.

[jonjay7722]

They Hate 2 c Niggas eatin

[jonjay7722]

@fukwaynecampaign2 

[riddim]

[mascez87]

Fast from the swine hold down your boulevard

Father-U the C-Cypher, start the revolution

Middle finger in the air, for slang prostitution!!!

[zillachix]

I play this joint everyday, I'm hookedt. Middle finga in the air to slang prostitution !

[prolific1978]

cap was such a disappointment nigga could rap but never panned out to what he could of been

[fukwaynecampaign2]

@prolific1978 maybe that wasn't his intent, just like papoose, he would make songs only when money was an issue, once he earned a lil, he would fall back out of the lime light

[zillachix]

4-eva in it !!!

[jerseylady81]

[planetasiayoyo]

Heavyweight lyric, never lost one calorie, brilliant!!

[donkeykwon]

@sonofgong cappadonna had the illest verse on winter warz

[fastschoanigga]

...fat like Roseanne

[mattwu911]

i still have a 97 mentality

[zillachix]

@mattwu911 Hellz yeah !! Wu-facutly fo-eva-eva

[itstrbo]

@mattwu911 it's about Hot 97 the radio station not the year 1997....hence the chorus "middle finger in the air for slang prostitution" referring to how DJ's wouldn't fuck wit your track unless you paid 'em like a prostitute....but I feel ya I gotta 1997 mentality as well but not a Hot 97 one

[peteardable]

@itstrbo Most people don't live in New York. Easy mistake to make. No hot 97 in Texas/Buffalo/Florida etc. Or 107 for that matter.

[mattwu911]

@itstrbo Thats interesting, I always thought it was about 1997, I remember having this CD back then in high school, but I'm from California and never heard of hot 97. Thanks.

[njirem]
