Definitely this.

And the first two that came to mind were "Glaciers of Ice" and "Rainy Dayz". I copped OB4CL the same day it dropped, and lost my mind when I heard these songs for the first time. Those beats were just on some genius-level sh*t that RZA has never been able to explain. Craziness.

I dont know if the dope gave him superpowers or took them away but he ain't been right ever since he stopped :mjcry:

I still wish he dropped an actual solo album in his prime instead of just the Bob digi stuff :francis:

Knowledge God was the track where it all clicked for me and I knew this was something different I'd never heard before. So that one will always stand out. But Criminology, Incarcerated Scarfaces and Ice Water definitely in the conversation.

RZA locked in the basement living off blunts and dust was untouchable.

Same! I wanted a RZA project during his prime.

That would've been CRAZY!!
