fukk is my name getting brought up in this goofy reasoning for ?
i wouldn't be ignorant enough to say Liquid Sword never got any play in the hood and or anything like that because i know they did.

i said i assume people that are hardcore wu-tang fanatics on the internet in 2015 are a certain type.

:mjlol: at being mad the Wu are better than my favorite rappers.

the day i get mad because someone else thinks someone else is better is the day i give up.
i'm not sensitive like that...i leave that to stans on here..and unlike 90% of the people on here, i can laugh at my favorites..which Ghostface happens to be one of.

:heh: Bro, you was just in the other thread saying that you always assume that a Wu tang fan is white or asian. Stop being so dramatic.

Didn't y'all see the article where GZA said RZA wasn't feeling it, but GZA was trying to put on his man? Thematically it fits with Liquid Swords but the beat's boring and Killah Priest is boring.

I remember Killah Priest himself saying something like this, but not the Gza.

Priest and Rza were beefing at the time, and Priest claimed that the original BIBLE was better but Rza lost it on one of his high trips. Priest thought that Rza did that shyt on purpose because he was hating, but then Gza told him to quickly write another version in time to put it on the album.

I remember when I brought this back in the 2nd semester of my freshman year of high school along with return to the 36. I was contemplating on whether to buy the cd version of this or return to the 36 or the cassette. Got the cd version of this and the cassette version of 36. Still remember when I first played it on my bro's laptop. Powerful music.


I heard some of the songs prior to buying the album though like cold world, labels and I gotcha back . I gotcha back has always been my shyt but I remember being scared as fukk the first time hearing cold world. It was around the same time right now in 2000 on ughh.com classics section.

Liquids swords is like my fav album of all times aside from the infamous and a few others.


Anybody here got the demo version of liquid swords with the original version of labels before RZA redid it?

you need to re-read what i just said...in 2015 i expect them to be a certain type.

Not even in 2015. Wu have a bunch of black fans. Every Wu related shows I personally went to had a good amount of black fans. I know that most of their shows are have a predominantly white audience but that's the case for ALL big hip hop acts that's been around for years. This is one of their shows from around 93:



Bunch of Blacks and Hispanics rocking to the Wu, including a bunch of females who knew their sh!t word for word. And this was basically most of their audience for most of their shows up until like 96-97. Matter of fact one of the major reasons Wu-tang dropped out of their major Rage Against the Machine tour in 97 was because most of the members didn't wanna perform for a bunch of white rock and roll heads, they wanted to perform for the hood n!ggas. These are facts.

Bottom line...it's not 2003 no more. It looks corny when somebody says some dumb sh!t like only whites and asians are Wu-tang fans. Just makes you look like you don't know sh!t.

Post the article, lying f@ggot.

Here's the problem you goofy parrot: you have weak taste in hip hop and you can't think for yourself. This is why you stan nikkas like me who actually think critically about hip hop.



timestamps @1:15. RZA says he didn't know if BIBLE fit on the album. Which is either code for "meh...this aint that fire" or just straight up, "it don't really fit". As I said in this thread, BIBLE just doesn't compare to the other tracks on Liquid. Any Wu-tang enthusiast (and not fake ones like yourself) can see this.

On the subject of GZA putting on his man KP:

"The album's last song, BIBLE, is another acronym. but is actually a Killah Priest song. GZA had Killah Priest signed to his GZA Productions company at the time and used the opportunity to showcase his artist. Bible is produced by RZA protege 4th Disciple and did not appear on vinyl and cassette versions of the album."

Book link.

Also, from a once-respected hip hop review site:

The final track, “B.I.B.L.E.,” doesn’t really belong on Liquid Swords: neither the GZA nor RZA contribute to the song. Instead, Wu-family member Killah Priest spits a narrative describing his religious life over a RZA-lite beat produced by Clan in-house producer 4th Disciple. The song isn’t bad, but it doesn’t belong on the album, and it’s placement at the end leaves the listener unsatisfied after plunging the shadowy depths of the GZA’s psyche.





So Billy Homotional, RZA didn't really think BIBLE fit, GZA was trying to put his man on, and multiple writers feel like Bible doesn't really fit.

You've been ethered, and you need to get off my dikk. I'm smarter than you and I know hip hop on a deeper level than you.

False Wu-tang stan :mjlol:

The only n!ggas that still say that played out sh!t is the obvious Wu haters that's mad that Wu is better, and more respected, than their favorite rappers... @AMcV'88 , @Iron Chin Wilder , @Wacky D, @Ineedmoney504 :heh: Brehs, it's not 2003. You not getting cool points by saying that corny sh!t anymore. Get ya'lls sh!t together.

Every n!gga in the projects was bumping Liquid Swords when it came out. Wu one the most ghetto, street affiliated groups ever. Yea, they only for cacs and asians :russ:


Did you really have to @ them?

This dumb f@ggot searched for video and typed up all that sh!T and still couldn't show where RZA said the song was wack or he didn't like it. Just retire, biatch n!gga.
