Ghost wasn’t on there either. He wanted to prove he could make a dope album without Rza and Ghost.
The irony in the Raekwon stuff.....
Only RZA's signal could get him to join BUT he didnt want RZA around Immobilarity

If you read raes book. Rza didnt wanna work with rae. Not the other way around. Which confused me as i always thought what yall thought.

I always figured once wu became stars they musta just been hard to work with. Cause starting 98 rza was bringing killarmy, black knights, shyheim, remedy, prodigal and 12o clock, around with him to all his appearances.

Even to this day. He brings them to award shows and shyt. I saw frukwan at a red carpet event with rza and the white people were shook at his huge entourage.


Tbh. Rae did do a lotta wu collabs at the time of both album 2 and 3, they just were used as big singles for other projects as i guess the wu name garnered more attention.

For immobilarity.

Wu/cream team lineup coulda been on immobilarity but was given to flex as first single vol 3 cause they both on loud

Cuttin it up fts ghost, killa sin, cream team, .. sample clearance issues, never released. Was gonna be put on lex diamond but again the breakbeat samples wouldnt clear.

The game ft ghost, and p. Seems to be a loud decision cause A. Pete was signed to loud. B. Its one song pete isnt even on on his solo. Seems to be a trade for sneakers. One for rae. One for pete. Woulda fit like a glove on immobilarrity.

Its not a game ft rza. Used as first single for black and white soundtrack.

All of these songs were meant for immobilarity at one time or another and were just used elsewhere.


As for lex diamond. Ghost was on clientele kidd and missing watch.

But cut from lex diamond was

Conflict of love ft ghost n polite.

Belt holders (originally on kayslay, jlove remixed it later under the name “starks and chef”

Seems rae and ghost picking the breakbeat classics caused them mad issues clearing the samples. Rae was always there fir ghost but the divide with rza kept getting bigger until rae started shyttin on bob digi sound circa 2000 era. And that never let up from 8d to abt.

Dope episode. The end was sad tbh.

yeah it was…the last 5 minutes was the best part for me…I would’ve actually liked to see how RZA and GZA managed to make everyone come together for this album despite all the distractions and real shyt the other members were going thru but they would’ve needed more than one episode to deal with all the drama it probably entailed so they settled for doing it like this…these album episodes ain’t it tho imo…concept is cool but the execution isn’t…in this case the music didn’t hit right and it was especially important this episode that it did for the “fight” scenes

This was a dope episode. The brotherhood when the tour starts, Divine willing to take the hate so RZA could concentrate on the music, ODB being ODB, the birth of Wu Wear, and Mook hustling (like Ghost said I'm not mad at him but at least tell me about it).

Of course Rae got crabby over the money split and blew up the spot.
U-God was never the same after his son got shot. In his book he talks about basically giving up on life at that time and being so angry he couldn't see straight.

Ep 6 preview says it's another allegorical ep, covering the making of OB4CL inspired by 90s gangster films

The Killer
Hard Boiled
Carlito's Way
Goodfellas
Casino
