  • Classical lyrics can u to survive

  • Shots rang off...."bing...bottle de dong".  To ghost face sick widdit.

  • very sharpe and awsome

  • gr8.

  • this brings back SO many good memories...<3 this song

  • RZA's production on this whole album was incredible you can see how Kanye West was influenced. This IMO is one of the best Wu songs. All three were flowing so well on this. Ghostface Killah really shined the most on this album. It's like out of all Wu members (and Deck and Meth are my faves), he just got better and better!

  • @bripell62 Doom says "these flows you won't find in no how-to" on Lickupon, pretty sure that was a jab at the book

  • OMG!!! That image of Raekwon with the coke resin on his nose in the very beginning!!! I'm sure you didn't mean any disrespect but....LMAO!!!

  • @Antrizzle2009 Yeah....I'm aware but it made me laugh like hell the first time I saw it. That's all.

  • inspectah deck is so underrated

  • ODB was in prison when this was made. Prison or rehab. He appears on one of the songs - I think he recorded his verse via phone line. It's a good verse too.

  • one of my favs off the W. the syl johnson sample is ridiculous!

  • The beginning was messed up.. they stomped that person then blasted him..

  • leaving rappers to ask themselves, "Is it because i'm wack?".

  • @BluntedBeyondBelief i hope your not talking about wu tang .... ?

  • one of their top 10 efforts, imo. tip, tip, tippy top of the game.

  • WU BANGER!!!!

    CREAM 2010 IS MY SHIT!!

    I suggest you WU HEADS CHECK IT!

  • Sick track,wu forever!

  • eye of horus

  • syl johnson one of the best samples i ever heard

  • is that the freemason eye as your profile pic fingy

  • no, egyptian symbol

  • oh yeh i know what you mean i have seen it before

  • @acthestar same thing.

  • @acthestar yea aint it called a Ra or somethin?

  • @acthestar the eye of Ra :)

  • @acthestar eye of ra

    

  • The Eye of Horus to be precise.

  • What your thinking of is called The Eye of Providence also known as The All Seeing Eye of God

  • @pinball281 You never heard of the eye of horus or eye of isis?

  • @KageShadows yeah i heard of them 

  • na man it is the penny who made you not abaramham linc you throw it at me i pick it up I am on the next one peace gods I love ya teach

  • I had The W and that shyt was. is, and always will be a classic. Then again, anything Wu drop is classic. I remember I 1st heard this shyt and I thought it was a newer verison of "C.R.E.A.M".

  • LeonnnB im sorry to say but this beat is huge. When i say 'huge' i mean its effect is massive, even though it is completely minimalistic. It's essentially the bassline (which is sick as fuck) which drives the rhythm. f they've done anything at all to the drums it's reduce them. I think it's not only brilliant but innovative in a genre often known for amping up the drums, not cutting them out almost completely. And this tune still bangs hard man, one of my faves

  • @gthaq syl johnson

    

  • Love ghosts verse

  • Gangstah Shit Son! Word Up!!!!

  • where was odb on this album?

    cos it says dedicated to ol dirty bastard but he werent dead when this was released

    or was he in rehab?

  • I put that in when I done this video.

  • @acthestar you should change the ending to "ODB, BIG L, PAC, BIGGIE & NATE DOGG RIP"

  • @dizzy986

    he was technically still alive. but really a dead man walking

  • @dizzy986 i thik he was in prison.

  • @dizzy986 He was locked up

  • @dizzy986 ODB was in jail at that time. the track mc conditioner was recorded over the phone while he was in his cell...

  • @matzomaniac lol no way!!!!!!

  • @dizzy986 he was in jail

  • @dizzy986 i think he was in prison.. On that conditioner song it sounds like he was rappin over the phone

  • @dizzy986 yo odb was in jail when this album was bieng made..  rip dirt mcgirt

  • @dizzy986 He was in jail

  • @dizzy986 he was in jail during the recording. There is one track on the album with Snoop and ODB, but it sounds like that these lyrics where recorded on a portable recorder or something.. song is called "conditioner"

  • @dizzy986 ODB was on the song "Conditioner (Ft. Snoop Dogg)" the song is dope, but Dirty's verse sound's a little sloppy.

  • @dizzy986 was in jail I think but e did feature a freestyle with Snoop. Mc Conditioner sounded like it was don over the phone

  • @dizzy986 Think he was locked up bro.

  • @dizzy986 he was in jail

  • @dizzy986 He does come out on the album

    he is on a track with snoop dogg

  • @dizzy986 im pretty sure he was in jail

  • @dizzy986 pretty sure he was in jail and he done conditioner over the phone while locked up. pure class r.i.p odb

  • @dizzy986 He was in prison

    

  • i dnt really like the beat of this one. cant get into it

  • listen to the original and maybe you will feel different. Sly Johnson- Is it because Im black.

  • guy got pwnd in the opening dang!

  • One of my favorite tracks off "The W" and I always loved how the bass is just relaxing in the background, if there's any bass at all.

  • Ghostface Had A Crazy FLOW On This Track haha

  • Birds have hollow bones. That is why they can fly.

  • i love this shit, wu- tang- clan are the best

  • smoke a bag of black nd feel the vibe

  • reallll gulllyy

  • si veritasaga are negativul asta ! big up

  • Sampled the same song that Dj Muggs did in "Root Down" off of Black Sunday. Syl Johnson ftw.

  • Sharp ear. Noticed that too.

  • @imcurtis206 i think you mean lock down

  • @imcurtis206 whats fucked up is that cypress hill got sued by syl johnsons estate last year over that cypress hill song using the sample but nothing was done for Wu using it, maybe they had clearance?

  • That sample sounds like Tina Turner... this song is hot...

  • STR8 SICKY! HOOD CLASSIC!

  • I agree, the W is a slept on album. This song is dirt dirt.....

  • this album wasnt slept on, its was HUGE when it came out, thats why theres so many music video's off of it.

  • I know the album was huge I agree with you there but there was not that many videos I remember. At least played in Chicago is all.

  • the police of brazil man... dirty mans... pigs.

  • i disagree, the original song by Syl Johnson is THE song. Ken Boothes is good, but reggae colour gives another flavour

  • Comment removed

  • The W album is a slept on album classic if you ask me.

  • If you don't no RZA sampled this one from Ken Boothes - Is it because im black...

  • most probably

  • im sorry i ment Syl Johnson, for me ken boothe has a better version of the song...

  • you asked is it because I'm black?

    So I answered most probably

    I haven't a clue who any of those people are though, I thought you were saying, I know what I'm talking about with respect to THE RZA, because your black, so I agreed.

    I hope thats not racist, its ment to be a compliment.

  • i was replying to blacktigerwu... I was reefering to the songs with the title "Is it because im black" and i wrote that it was sampled from Ken Boothe who has a version of the original from Syl Johnson... So there;)

  • No it's not it's Syl Johnson the vocal is just altered

  • outside the ''checks cashing '' flashing, dipped in fashion ,five cherry faced faggots try to cash in............................­.....................fffeeeeee­eeeling that u hate those,move slow i'm hearing how u broke ra's nose...GHOST KILLED IT........
