I never understood why RZA didn’t produce an entire album for him. He should have reached bigger heights of popularity. This song has aged like fine wine.

[@jonez2020]

The reason why is because shy was apart a production deal the Big Homie RNS who produced his classic Album. RNS was and still is that Brother on Staten Island..Where you think RZA get his style from?
