I'm still mad at the flood situation cause I would love to hear Deck's album cause when he did Let Me At Them for Tales from the Hood soundtrack, I pictured what his solo would have sounded like in this song. I remember I was so excited to hear when he finally dropped Uncontrolled Substance album and ended up disappointed It wasn't bad album, decent at the best

The message was truth. Underground real hiphop breeds revolution.

Liquid Swords is Neck and Neck with OB4CL for me. Gza proved he was the best rapper in the Wu to MF on that album.

Is Rza verse on 4th Chamber his best verse ever? I think it is.

I knew as soon as the Asian boss name was Cyrus where this story was going. Very dope tie in. Love the fade to the artwork. Iconic. I have a liquid Swords hoodie with that pic on the front.

Shameik Moore is acting his ass off in this.

Watching latest ep now. They shoulda casted Decks actor as Meth. This cat is bringing too much emotion/charisma to Deck. Homie be damn near over doing it

This dude had legit tears, I think it just looks crazy because he's supposed to be Deck and we don't picture Deck crying.

Dude be extra as hell. I suspect he's probably "not from Harlem". I think he killed his RZA and Meth auditions but they were determined to use famous ppl in those roles. Once Joey Badazz (who played a laidback Deck in S1) dropped out, they were like let's call up son who was killing in his auditions and see if he's interested. My man said hell yeah and fukk that laid back shyt! This may be my 1 time to shine!

Ashton Sanders Opens Up About Portraying RZA In 'Wu Tang: An American Saga' | Essence

The rising star shines in Hulu's new scripted series chronicling the backstory behind one of Hip Hop's most iconic groups.

But when group member Robert “RZA” Fitzgerald Diggs sat across from Ashton Sanders to share the news that he’d been hand-picked to portray Diggs in the upcoming biopic series, Sanders was ready to crush the monstrous task at hand.

“There was no audition at all,” Sanders told ESSENCE. “RZA and [co-creator] Alex Tse already had their mind made up that they wanted me to portray him. At first it was kind of overwhelming but, obviously, it’s an honor.”
