listened thru the album all the way twice and jumped to certain tracks a third time around. I really like this album, and the vibe of it.

stand out cuts to me were Miracle, Necklace, 40th street, hold the heater, and the title track

didnt like 'felt' on the first listen, warmed up to that track

stand out stras to me are Masta Killa, Meth, and U God

Hold the Heater eh? cant quite get into that yet, not giving up yet

40th St is kind of like a park jam, right? it has a likable quality to it, the 2nd tier songs are really good. everyone having different favs is always a good thing

Just streamed the whole thing and I enjoyed the fukk out of it.

I'd say the album was pretty good. It flowed nicely. I felt that the vintage Wu sound came back towards the 2nd half. Loved how the album kicked off though. Didn't feel some of the hooks, but for the most part the lyrics and production was on point.

Aint no way in hell this album is even better than the Iron Flag song



Yall are doing the standard "new album from respected artist/group drops so we gonna call it top 3 right now just because its brand new"

Half this album is below par brehs...its time for RZA to fall back executively

Iron Flag is definitely their worst album. No debate.

Not to get too off track, I like Iron Flag better than 8 Diagrams. You take Rules, Chrome Wheels and Dashing off Iron Flag and its a real nice album.

8 Diagrams, while unfairly hated on, had more flaws imo.

I disagree. I love Wu-Tang but I'm no apologist for them. The first time I heard 8 Diagrams I knew it wasn't up to par. That's the album when I started worrying about RZA.

So I'm actually surprised how much I like this album off two listens. Also, It's got that vibe that makes me think it's gonna keep growing on me ... A slow burn kinda like The W.
