When I was first exposed to the Wu as a kid the day Protect ya Neck premiered, never did I think they would ever get so big. There were so many hardcore groups around that time with low budget videos, I thought they would just come and go like so many others. Not that they weren't dope, but the talent in hip hop back then was second to none back then and not everybody made it.
I'm gonna miss this show.
It wasn't perfect at all, but it was entertaining and I'm glad they gave the lesser known wu members some shine individually. It was a shame seeing Inspectah Deck getting sidelined like he was some glorified extra when he's one of the top lyricists in the crew and should have had the fame and success like the others. Of course dude who played RZA doesn't look or sound like him which has been said a million times already and Meth's portrayal was disappointing to say the least. I thought they would have done a lot better with that.
Dude who played Raekwon absolutely NAILED it more than the other characters IMO.
There's certain Wu stories I was hoping to see but with so many members you can't cover everything understandably. Overall they did a good job for what they had to work with and the budget. I still think Rae's idea of a Wu movie would have been great. It's a lot of material to cover, but fukk it. If they can do a 3 and a half hour movie about a bunch of boring ass blue aliens, the time would fly watching Wu on screen.
Overall, I'll give it a 7.5/10.
