Rzay-rector

I respect the actor trying to pull off this role, but he just doesn't have the physical presence or gravitas of Rza. All the other actors somewhat match the physical presence of the rappers they're portraying.

This episode was good, just showing all the different aspects a newcomer to the music biz in the 90s was dealing with.

Everybody with beepers is a trip. Im ready to see Rae holding a brick size cellphone :mjlol: like he does in early Wu Tang video.



So you saying the original beat was a hit?? Or second version?



You think they gone show the dust usage??



The original is pretty dope beat wise anyway and for the time it would have gotten a lot of burn.

and dude who plays ghost is a great actor, but hes far too eloquent and cunning to convey the real dennis coles.......ghost is a retard, dudes IQ gotta be like 85-90. Hes a brolic 6"3 nikka with hands.....the actor playing him is a little dude with fast wits.
Facts that nikka is not convincing as Ghost at all

Ghost also has a very distinctive high pitched voice

Oh, trust me I KNOW. One of my main homies used to live in Stapleton back in the days and when I was out there chillin wit them nikkas some of the stories I heard about Ghost was straight wild. Certified goon. One of the nikkas we used to chill with didn't like us playing Ghost music in the whip cause apparently Ghost knocked him out one day just cause he was having a bad day :russ:

Like Cam'ron said: Ghost gotta be Top 5 cause he one of the elite, legendary MCs that you can actually believe his raps because he was straight gooning back in the day. Can't really say that about too many goon rappers that are also regarded as elite level MCs. He's there with nikkas like DMX and Beanie Sigel.
I remember a dude in The Source or one of those other mags was doing a cover story on Ghost for Ironman in '96 and he said dude started shooting at folks while he was in the car :russ: . He said it was some dudes that shot at him weeks earlier when he was hanging with the Force MD's after they did Soul Controller, and he couldn't tolerate them disrespecting legends.

Word, but it was the Delfonics. My favorite anecdote from that incident is when Cappa talks about one of the Delfonics pulling out a knife during the shoot out and being ready to throw down.

Right, for some reason Delfonics was my first thought but then I changed my mind.
