Official Wu-Tang: An American Saga Season 1 Thread

The actor who played RZA did ok but he could have worked harder at getting the voice down imo! In his defense though RZA is a tough person to portray on film I could imagine.


Wow that's dope. Busta, Biggie and Jay went to the same high school as well I think.

yep I think AZ went to that High School too.


Its crazy when you look at the 90’s and see how many rappers who were from the same area that blew up either knew or had close affiliations with one another. Nas and half of Queensbridge, Jay/Biggie/Busta, hell even Dre, Big Boi and the Dungeon Family

...I love they really shot this in Staten Island

And, didn't green-screen Shaolin to make the scenery inauthentic

75% of ALL late 80s early-mid 90s rappers are intertwined in one way or another... You had to back then... Now with all these at home studios nobody really mingles.

I remember going to the studio and so and so just left. .. Or the engineer playing so and so albums before it dropped.. Theres no time like it...

AZ and Jay went to Sarah J. Jay also went to Westinghouse with Big and Busta.

 

[Guvnor]

Yes they did. My High School.

George Westinghouse?

 

[mson]

George Westinghouse?

Yes

 

[Guvnor]

Yes

Oh that's what's up.

Was the Killer Hill record a real record Method man did? That shyt sounds tough

The actor playing Rza He just wasn’t the best casting decision IMO. And on the breakfast club he said he didn’t listen to Wu

None of them did. They're in their early-mid 20's. Outside of the "W" I'm sure they couldn't even name them individually.

Another serious question. How real are these accounts of Park Hill vs Stapleton? Cause there's certain hood beef shyt shyt you don't come back from. Like did Rae seriously shoot up Ghost's crib up where the bullets barely missed his moms? And Rae, Power, and company setting ablaze Ghost's and RZA's dope house they were selling at while they were still in it. But yet they they become a group?? How is that even possible

Im pretty sure Dave East listened to Wu


but whats the verdict on this shyt brehs? i haven't watched a single episode but loved that Wu docu series that dropped a few months back

They're real. They Wu always talk about the seriousness of the Stapleton vs Park Hill ish. Look at the Shy vs Rae beef interviews.

Dave East is like 30. By the time he would've been getting serious into rap, Wu's reign was over and it would've been X, Jigga, Lox, with 50 & Dipset coming up in the wings. Us serious Wu fans are pushing 40 & up.
