[@andrebarnes1341]

That production on that album was one of best. RZA was cutting heads with that sound.

[@JudgePhilosophical]

The rza is the best hip hop producer of all time in my opinion

[@Jermainebolo]

Mine too

[@user-cv1vt8rc7z]

Premier is the best ever. RZA kinda fell off after Forever / The W. Premier still drops heat.

[@JudgePhilosophical]

That is your opinion. No producer has accomplished what RZA has achieved with his first albums, each of which has a distinct sound.

[@Jermainebolo]

@@JudgePhilosophical RZA’s run of albums between 93-98 is often ignored to serve others favourite producers purpose. Post 98 RZA still made classics sprinkled in the mix.

[@JudgePhilosophical]

@Jermainebolo 🫡 that run is unmatched by any producer.. 36 chambers,tical,built 4 Cuban, the return 36 chambers, iron man,liquid swords absolutely cosign after classic with all new sounds

[@EB-nq6xy]

Forever is the best album of alltime any genre

[@ChampagneDon-e2q]

NO IT AINT. IT AINT BETTER THAN ONLY BUILT 4 CUBAN LINX OR SUPREME CLIENTELE OR MADVILLAINY

[@EB-nq6xy]

@@ChampagneDon-e2q actually it is, i lived through all these releases and ive seen wu tang over 20 times live, im a hiphop connoisseur, own over 500 vinyl over 1000cds and tapes, Forever is wu tangs magnum opus

[@Goatchild90]

Certified classic album

[@tonysmith5878]

THAT ALBUM WAS A "D.I.Y." AND DONE WITH LOVE AND PASSION!!!!!!!

[@JokersNtheOddball]

One the greatest musical minds of all time. One of the realest from the start.

[@TYBO-xl1xz]

I personally don’t care about anybody else’s rankings, the album is a masterpiece

[@callmemrbombastic1903]

Tearz always hit differently for me! Speaking about emotions!

[@user-cv1vt8rc7z]

masterpiece. RZA and Ghost are on another level on this one...

[@callmemrbombastic1903]

@@user-cv1vt8rc7z facts! 37 is an insult, if you ask me!

[@OctopussianJubilee]

My man RZA was heavy on that album. Besides the lyrics, one must salute the Kung-Fu movies that were weaved into the production process.

Got a Cat After I Bought 36 Chambers in '93, Named Him Rza. That's How Much I Was Fukn With Wu. Also, As a Young Lad of 11, The Song "Lady" Came Out in '81 By The Commodores, I Had a Black Cat and Named Her That. You Don't Just Become Something. I've Always Been What I Am, a Musician. 7x💪🏾

[@grigorsimonyan625]

They entered all the chambers and now are on 37th

[@amarvalousstarttheconversation]

Bless this man. Still looks fresh. Love 36 chambers but to me - Liquid Swords will forever be his best work. Untouchable productions...

[@ScubaAspen]

bout time.

[@inspectah2342]

Wutang is one of the most iconic groups in music history. They brought a whole new culture to music . And my kids even know that logo I just wished wutang wouldve changed the line up every so often to keep the group going forever. Like have multiple generations and iterations of the group. It would’ve kept the group fresh because they lost the musical sauce over the years. New fresh energy would’ve kept the sound relevant. WU Tang is big enough to have multiple iterations of the group.

[@skeletonkey6]

Wu-Tang Forever, son! Big up, Bobby Digital Prince Rakeem the RZA 👐

[@kinexus3181]

Why is Ebro Darden doing this interview? This dude has no love for MCs coming from New York. He single handedly destroyed and forever changed the music scene in New York.

[@dmentsilain]

Time to show love. ❤

[@toddweat7742]

[@KarenYSmith-vt4hq]

That's the best album made with the biggest rap group ❤❤ LOVE them all!!!
