My Favorite RZA Beats (Part 2: 25-1)

[Heatley1514]

Solid list and all, just not sure how you could've overlooked Verbal Intercourse when you first compiled this....was really the only classic not in the top 50. It was one of the most influential beats of the second half of the nineties (along with Shook Ones pt. II) without a doubt.

[CalciumMoonCheese]

generally a great list. B.I.B.L.E from GZA's Liquid Swords deserves a mention though

[AMAruofAssassinz]

@CalciumMoonCheese BIBLE is a 4th disciple production

[CalciumMoonCheese]

@AMAruofAssassinz didn't know that. my bad. thanks for the correction

[AMAruofAssassinz]

@CalciumMoonCheese no worries. thx for peepin my list

[prevalot]

@CalciumMoonCheese everyone one of these are #1's

[waaatttsonnn]

proper list, i'd add verbal intercourse, but still, raaaaspect

[squarecracker]

Who doesn't remember all these beats? As soon as I hear em, it takes me back to listening to all these albums. Soooo many classics. It's impossible to pick the best. Might be rainy dayz or criminology.

[wonderz0024]

nice list man..damn u shitted on shadowboxin. Where is 'box in hand'? childs play?

[Kabrion8]

4th chamber is my #1 pick

[Gaarlz]

I knew a LS track would be #1, great production on the album.

[MPistol]

Aaaahhh, no Bob Digi cutz? Not one??? Damn :( anyway, I can't front, I felt this batch for real

[ThaSubzstance]

tearz was way ahead of its time.

[xDJxDELINQUENTx]

not hating bro...but most of us agree that Killa Hills as #1 is a very odd/unusual and down right "WTF?" choice. your opinion is your opinion. and i will leave you to it. But holy shit bro. i would love to hear why the hell u like that beat over such legendary ones...

[MidlandKruiskade]

@xDJxDELINQUENTx Killah Hills 10304 is a very underrated beat. I was like that at first, but I can understand why it's someone's favorite. My favorites are probably Swordsman and Glaciers of Ice, but Duel of the Iron Mic & Living in the World Today and KH10304 are not far behind.

[dlazeproductions]

i really like your tatse man . pretty similer to mine :)

[Beatz4liffe]

sick list, good taste dog

[PrinceBowWow614]

C.R.E.A.M or Triumph gotta be #1

[MistNin]

No 'Last Drink' by Masta Killa? Whuuuuuuuuuut?!

[kieranakc]

Nice number 1 but no Ice Water? That beat is so hard

Ahh ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

:P

[FeralFresse]

but what about samurai showndown, never again, winter warz or deuces?

[FeralFresse]

Aw yeah, he ran, but he didn't get far

Cause I dropped him, heh heh heh heh heh HA

Not knowin, exactly what lied ahead

[chiboyz21]

cracking ass list..wu gambinos..ice cream...cream...killah hillz all top ten..u know whats up

[MidlandKruiskade]

Where is Glaciers of Ice my brother? It should be #1 haha

[nastynas373]

haha yeah i disagree with the list but its a "favorite list". ppl would probably disagree with mine too. i dont really like ice cream as much as others. i think winter warz, shadowboxin, mystery of chessboxin, bring da ruckes, incarcerated scarfaces, verbal intercourse, reunited, biscuits, etc

[RrrutssS]

i couldent make a top rza beats,cuz theyr all fkn insanely dope and raw!

i grew up by the sound of 36 chambers and from there on wu tang has been in my heart!

WU Forever!

[knzMX]

The list is awesome, and the people who come here and tell this is shit are fucking idots !

This is a youtube video of a person who decided to give is a opinion about and the title says "my favorite" so ether do you don't know how to read or your a bunch of fucking idiots.

Great vid awesome work great song, (not every hip hop fan as to like the song C.R.E.A.M) i personaly love it but every one as the right to a opinion.

Learn how to make a critic and then comment.

Again, Great Job!

[Ilias512]

Great work, all the beats you have put on your list are definitely dope. I appreciate the fact that you called these videos "My favorite RZA Beats" and not "The best RZA Beats", and you have great taste.

It seems to me you hadn't listen to "Supreme Clientele" when you did your list though, as I think the one or the other track could have make it on it ;)

[SamuraiMC18]

i would agree with any beat from Liquid Swords being #1. that album is amazing.

[MexWanker0589]

I always loved the Killa Hills beat and I know most Wu fans don't appreciate it as much as I do. I'm glad you think the same way.

I think Guillotine bangs harder than you do but thanks for the list. Great thing about production from Premo, RZA, J Dilla, etc. is that it's so varied people like different things.

[MrOmac09]

great list man!! your premo list is great too i already have a premo one on here im in the middle of making my rza one now

[detroitMC313]

You forgot Duck Season, and Don't U, and Dog Shit. (I'm not positive RZA produced them all, I'm pretty sure he did...) but those are top 25 for surrrreee!

[merkseason09]

Cold War should be higher and you list is off IMO.

[sab3rm4st3r99]

4th Chamber - My favourite beat and track on the list.

Ill list though bro.

[BooMBAPManiaK]

Good list fam! But I gotta say, you are missing some good beats i.e. Run 4 Cover, Diesel, As Long As You Know, Weeping Tiger...man I can keep on goin maybe I should make my own list huh? Peace.

[Skars4Lyfe]

Tha GZA's album is probly my fave Wu Tang Clan member album!

[samhern77]

nice list but 4th Chamber and Criminology are my 1 and 2 fav RZa beats ever!! Damn RZa has an ill catalog

[Fresh8332]

i dont understand why everyone is bitchin bout this list it doesnt say the best rza beats it says his personal favorite rza beats...shut the fukk up

[rdotpatterson]

where is ice water that shud be in the top 5

[ninthwonder23]

great list

[kalbe]

Damn I had no idea Rza produced long kiss goodnight!

List is ill, your number 1 was a whack choice but props anyway.

[chaaoos]

man. nice list. imagine if RZA's apartment hadn't gotten flooded, or whatever happened. but that's life I guess.

[EAZYDUZIT95]

serious WTF moment from 7:48 to 8:14

[MariosLasagna]

I actually slightly injured my neck thanks to the "4th Chamber" beat. Who can say that?!? Wu 'till infinity my friends.

[bml2007]

Criminology is the best RZA beat.

[antimilan93]

yeh swordsman has the illest beat imo

[fjallman90]

I would've added Ghostfaces Daytona 500 and GZAs Shadowboxin and I would have skipped Ice Cream. But then again I didn't make the list. Nice anyways!

[DirtyOlWu36]

release yo delf, brooklyn babies and old man

[prohittas]

damn never knew rza was the one who made most of those beats shiz crazy

[prohittas]

@perry232 ofcause because rza is not really a rapper

[crazyhiho]

@prohittas and for being a producer, rza is fucking killer, still one of the best in WU

but lyrically gza is so ruthless

[readus81]

You missin too many of RZA's illest beats. No Glaciers of Ice, Cammy, Buck 50, Run, Release Yo Delph, Heaven and Hell. Not feelin the list at all how is Cold Worl only 24?

[russ33c]

this list is shit.

#1 is a nice beat dont get me wrong, but there is no beat in the history of rap better then cream. and mr. sandman by method man should be 2nd and its not even in your top 50. and idk why duel of the iron mic is #36. it should deff be in the top 5, that shit is so gangsta. And what about brooklyn zoo? that shit is as gritty as they come, your slackin bro

[AMAruofAssassinz]

sorry, is it just me or does the title say "MY favorite rza beats", u can leave an opinion but stop these comments like "so and so should be #5" and "so and so #20" whatever, i dont think this list is "shit" anyway...

[prohittas]

@AMAruofAssassinz MY FAV BEAT OUT OF ALL OF THEM WAS HEATERS SHIT IZ 5 START HOT FRESH OUTA THE OVEN

[WarrenWorthington7]

@russ33c

brooklyn zoo is 4th disciple

[laker24c]

i like rza

but in my opinion, killah hills is a horrible beat

[Rombach34]

wheres my favorite nehanda & cream?? :(

[AMAruofAssassinz]

nehanda & cream is a bronze nazareth production

[NippleFuck1]

dope beatzz 5 starrz

[JRC0723]

no heaven and hell???

[kottto22]

killah hills the number 1? you cannot be serious.

[AMAruofAssassinz]

my list, hate it or love it

[dknight416]

greezy list nigga, keep bumpin wu... 5 stars

[kkoorreenn]

@kottto22 WORD

[danbadd]

I think this is more of a 50 favourite RZA beats of CDs you own. There are sooooooo many albums and tracks RZA has done that don't even get a mention. ANd what about Ghost dog? Derailed? Kill Bill?

but...

I must concede that your top 10 is just about perfect!!!

[bassboombap]

does no one remember 'Bells of War'?

[coryprinzo]

this guy picked the dopest beats ever and then the number one of all time is........killah hills 10304? seriously? did i see that right? seriously? that beat is better than all the rest? seriously?

[st8hustla]

Where is bobby digital tracks?

[mecamaster]

tru master is the most slept on producer in music period.

[PublicICON]

"NO said date," Omg thats a dope ass beat

[christianmoreno15]

Shame on a nigga has a phat beat too

[Iroh624]

[relyanddefy]

someone knowledgable in the Wu search this video:

Problem kid- Kyza

and tell me what RZA song the beat is from.

[bdscavenger]

my opinion on rza's/wu tang's best beats/songs

#1 hellz wind staff

#2 glaciers of ice

3 and after i don't know, but there are too many to name

[gronetlv7]

you left out "Ice Water" and "Heaven & Hell" by Raekwon

[Misc4Lyfe]

dope list man

fuck all these haters saying what is or isnt better. everybody got their own personal taste. i think the list is great and in fact found 3 songs I never even knew about and already youtubed and favorite'ed

[thesoundsofJAGX]

i don't think anything can compare to incarcerated scarfaces, thats one of the best beats ever

[yea1re]

yo wtf you dont even have bring da ruckus? its better than half the songs you got on the list

[tp10super]

I like the order of how you have these songs a little better than 50-26 but let's be real here...there really is no way you can put 50 hot songs in an order and have everyone happy about it. We all have our favorites. For me, it's Ironman, Liquid Swordz, and Only Built for a Cuban Linx but like I said, can't please everyone.

I do like your top 5 here though.

[OrchidTheGreat]

Cold World should be higher than 24 imo. It is hard to please everybody so don't sweat the criticism from idiots

[TheRefriedMexican]

Oh yeah well . . . . blah, blah, blah, blaaaaaaaah! LOL

[TheRefriedMexican]

LOL @ Amaruofass

[AMAruofAssassinz]

pff very poor one, better expand ur horizon before u embarrass urself 1ce again u fried chicken

[TheRefriedMexican]

LOL a little sensitive aren't we? Pinche pendeja

[AMAruofAssassinz]

don't even need to laugh, just fuck off with ur unconstructive criticism, any opinion is welcome, it depends on the way u do it. and furthermore u obviously didn't watch the entire video and read my info, otherwise you wouldn't state this kinda shit. one more thing, are you this kinda pussy that you have to curse in ur mother tongue, don't thing i don't understand it u punk ass motherfucker, jodete

[TheRefriedMexican]

You're 25 through 1 is even worse! 1st off "Heaterz" was produced by True Master not Rza. Where's "Wu Wear (Garment Renaissance)"? Thats a top 20. How about "Winter Warz"? What about "Verbal Intercourse"

[AMAruofAssassinz]

what the fuck is ur problem, stay the fuck off my dick. how about readin the fuckin annotations and info, cuz then you would see that verbal intercourse is my #8 and that i did realize that heaterz is a true master beat. oh and winter warz is on #16 u bytch, by the way this ain't ur list but mine, so just fuck off

[Brost31]

Careful (Click Click)??

[MistaDanioThePoetic]

what the blood clut!!! Where the fuck is that join you fuck!?

[shakezula000]

Kiss of the black widow??

[lenroc82]

No beats from Bobby Digital album????? Where is Tragedy and Holocaust (Silkworm)? No Killa Army? Da Mystery of Chessboxin is missing. Poisonus Darts too. What about Careful (Click, Click).

[teddy0715]

it's his list, not yours. his opinions, so respect it, kid.

[hammerrich16]

yeah triumph 4 me is no.1 4real

[NWAxGOAT24]

why is rainy dayz at 21???!?!?!? lol

[villiemack]

winter warz!!

[FinnishAirsoftplayer]

Top 5

1.Triumph

2.Winter Warz

3.Bring The Pain

4.Protect ya neck

5.C.R.E.A.M.

[hector2282]

Don Rodriguiz from the bronx. Don Rodriguiz..!!!

[hector2282]

Gza's more of a lyricist than Rae... thats why Liquid swords is a better album than Cuban Linx... its all about the dark dreary imagery on that album. The cover says it all...Choppin heads!

Both albums are classics thought.

[alban4doom]

no mystery of chessboxin ?

[woogleslap]

everybody has there own opinon man. if thats how you feel then thats cool. i personally like built 4 cuban linx the best because rae was my favorite rapper back then. iron man is number 2 for me. but believe me. liquid swords is a fucking banga! no weak wu albums before 97.

[venginOo]

killah hills is ridicolous..but it is never the best beat that RZA made...not that happy with that decission

[dulaneyj]

I never thought CREAM was as great as others seem to.

Personally, I think Ice Cream is his best.

[woogleslap]

cream was just raw. it show a true reflection of th times. 93 was raw!

[woogleslap]

and i'm talking about the beat. not the actual song.

[NWAxGOAT24]

#50 should be #1

[swellybelly]

lol I thought the same exact thing when I looked at the list. Swordsman is my favorite Wu song ever

[shtaAaki]

GZA Feat. Method Man - Living In The World Today - top10 imho !

[obilinx]

You puut all gza's liquid swords material except Labels & Investigative Reports!! C.R.E.A.M. in normally the #1 but Killa Hills 10304 it's OK!

[dollhairthepup]

It's because that album is a classic!!!!!!!!

[InfamousHavoc24]

tres leches that my shit remember deck i told y'all protect ya neck

[MastaSplintah]

Very nice work no doubt, but you all sleep on True Master and 4th Disciple...

[lankansoulja5]

wu tang clan ain't nuthin to fuk wit !!

[niguh2]

rza preem pete rock and j dilla are my all time favs!!!

whut do u think about j dilla AMAruofAssassinz?

[AMAruofAssassinz]

dilla's a fuckin' legend, he had an unique, uncomparable style, definitely in my personal top 10, along with preem, stoupe, pete and rza

[noggeneuqt]

storch dre muggs swizz beats anyone ?

[JackBP2001]

awesome list. but i would definitely have liquid swordz and ice water in my top 25.

[beichtvater123]

my favorits are ice water and 7th chamber pt. II

[Davanca24]

Im amazed that nothing from Rza's Bobby Digital album made your cut. I guess you didn't like the beats on the there. Or if you even have that album, but if you do listen to it and remake your list. Rza had some fire on the Bobby Digital album.

[Road2SelfImprovement]

Great list. I did a quick lookover and was like "how did Killah Hills 10304 not make the top 25?" Then I listened.

[keeshawn123]

....wow

fan-fucking-tastic list u got here

both parts

u a real hip hop head

[klmattydub]

good list, my #1 would be severe punishment

[Blacklaus]

Great work, AMAruofAssassinz!

I would like to see Cypress Hill - Killa Hill Niggas in the list though...

[sina0824]

wu gambinos is a sick as song

[shiimshiim]

cuban links is dropping right when north america is crumbling, I know my city will be goign crazy when it drops, times are hectic now though, look whats happening in the South keep your eyes open...

[alwayscheifin]

whats happening in the south

[shiimshiim]

If you havn't relized, North America is crumbling & the government is taking over crushing all your freedom and rights....Civil wars will mostlikely break out in Mexico since its under extreme war from large ammounts of money being made for the north american drug trade routes....Its not just the south though, the south is a major problem though.

[alwayscheifin]

Realized. Not relized. I didn't know what south you were referring to. I thought you meant the southern US hip hop scene. Mexico is indeed wild but wont be in civil war. Our freedom and rights have been crushed for like 100 years now buddy. But youre mostly right.

[shiimshiim]

Wont be a civil war, I dont think you fully understand what is happening in Mexico, a civil war is uneveitable, the borders will get raped from people fleeing, North Americas evil government is grasping life and blinding the human race, wake up...united we stand, divided we fall.

[alwayscheifin]

word. im educated about shit in general, but didnt know it was THAT bad in Mexico. I was hearing about them sending in the military and shit down there to enforce shit and the cartels were saying they'd kill an officer every day though.

[shiimshiim]

Thousands of american military grade weapons are being shipped daily to Mexico, drugs flooding North America from there also...Probably around 20 or so chief of police have been assasinated in the last couple years, a big handful of cops, lawyeres, endless people and kidnappings, also FBI & Us marshall bodies where found in Mexico, what about the mexican government not revealing the serial number on US GOVERMENT weapons!

[BornWithTesticles]

This is off subject...... But everywhere I go people are waking up and asking questions. I take it you know the score with the NWO etc......?

Passing comment

[shiimshiim]

Yes, NWO is coming, the North American Alliance will be here soon enough stages are already complete, I fully do not know what will happen once all countries are connected but it is most likely for a world government. PEACE.

[COGmaster67]

Do you believe in the Reptilian folk

[shiimshiim]

Nothing is off subjec, this is a very important subject indeed are they fully waking up? Tons of cages and different ways of blinding people are in this earth, look at the game Second Life, division in the population, drugs, all these are here to divide us and for the government to take more controll.

[alwayscheifin]

word i hear ya

thanks for the info

[shiimshiim]

Anytime, understanding - these beats are killage, RZA is a general...Check out Wuu Oooh - Cuban links 2, CRAZY RZA beat! Peace god!

[alwayscheifin]

I dont think anyone on that magnitude will give a flying shit about CL2.

[coverfire32]

my favorite will always be tearz

[illmaticjesus]

#1 Triumph

#2 Liquid Swords

#3 C.R.E.A.M.

#4 Ain't Nuthin Ta Fuck Wit

#5 Ice Cream

[chrisrap4ever]

in enter the wu tang,rza made his best beats.7th chamber,intro 4 clan in da front and many more...ice cream is also fly!

[skuat3]

good list but in my opinion C.R.E.A.M is the best beat

[oOViperrrr6Oo]

BASSSSSS!!!aaah

[tetrak]

ah my bad forgot to give you props for this vid. though no.1 is a bit shady. nice job man keep it real

[tetrak]

this lists always piss me off cause theres always great songs missing but you cant have them all can you? anyways i havent seen the other part of this vid but shawdowboxin should be top 25. the ones that i dont htink should be here are tres leches and knowledge god. also dont forget wisdom body . see what i mean? these lists will never satisfy anybody.

[eastsidestory44]

The Liquid Swords album is pure chemistry between GZA and RZA, so many dope beats...

Cuban Linx has allot of dope ones too, Wu Gambinos is ill.

C.R.E.A.M. is legendary.

okayy... i can respect Killa Hill as #1.

nice list tho.

everyone's #1 is gone be different.

wu tang forever.

[kgrim010]

aw.. da mystery of chessboxin should be on here

[verbalhologram03]

wu-tang forever

[pdm146]

i think mr. sandman is top ten rza beat

[MikeCandida]

4th chamber would def be my number 1 unreal beat

[OmegaisAlpha]

YO WHERE THE FUCK IS 260??????????

[qufinest14]

[bLuDcLoT06]

[IceKr3aMm]

Ice Cream, CREAM, No Said Date, Knowledge God, Incarcerated Scarfaces, Criminology, Protect Ya Neck are so ill

[xXDouchayXx]

where in gods name is da mystery of chessboxin'

[Tniggz]

who produced brooklyn zoo?

[thed0n995]

tru master

[ladyj2184]

damn you didnt put Da Mystery of Chessboixing on there or yall been warned, and NYC Everything that Bobby Digital album. nice list though

[stewsh93]

Great list,Release yo delf somewhere but other than that you did a great job to me

[Oznah1]

YOU.... NEED ... TO ... PUT ... CLICK CLICK (CAREFUL) HERE .... NOW! No seriously that's one of the most nightmarish street tunes ever. Great list tho' RZA is my favourite person right now just because what he stands for and what he crafts!

[SolidSnake240]

Ah man, can't believe you didin't put Samurai Showdown on your list. That's definately one of RZA's sickest beats ever. But that' just me, great list though.

[russianscheme]

winter warz should be #1

[AMAruofAssassinz]

yeah it is a RZA beat, it is classic, but imo not top 50

[AMAruofAssassinz]

Wu Banga 101 is produced by Mathematics

[lord3os]

4th chamber has to be there :S

it's a fucking good beat !!1

[AMAruofAssassinz]

4th chamber is in this list

it's #5

[lord3os]

oh ok sorry

didn't noticed.. i was quind in a hurry x)

[TheAbyssinia]

HEATERZ!

True Master is so ill.

you should a best of True Master as well.

Triumph is the best beat ever in hip hop. listen carefully rza changes the beat. no verse is the same.sometimes he left out stings, sometimes the bass or drums.

Godlike.

[TheAbyssinia]

props to 10304

Liquid Swords probably the best album in 30 years of Hip Hop History

[purdue2009]

Motherless Fuckin Child!

[HaT223]

my fav rza beat is shadow boxing that beat is mad under rated followed by icecream

[chrisrap4ever]

killah hills 10304 son!thats my shit!

1.primo

2.rza

3.dre

[wutangclanman33]

hard to choose a fovourite rza beat but right now i'm feeling ghosts camay

[blive99]

[Cothreezy]

great list but, RZA will always be #3 on my all time list I cant put him above Dr Dre #2 and DJ Premier #1 but, RZA is great though

[StormHipHop]
