I wonder who recorded a lot of this old footage? Also why?

It was brilliant though and I'm glad they did lol. Can't wait to watch episode 2 when it comes on tv this Friday.

Im glad I read U-Gods book before watching this.
Makes this that much iller.
U-God is the one who married that Native American activist? or was that Cap? :jbhmm:

Just started watching this. Why is Seth Rogen on this :dahell:
Is he a Wu Fan? lol

What kind of money are you talking about? I know Rae and Ghost tour like crazy. Gza also does his thing. I don't think they are hurting.

To where they are comfortable. Rae and Ghost can tour and easily make 7 figures a year. Meth and RZA solid in Hollywood. Meth can tour as well. What about Cap, Deck, MK and Golden Armz

I don't know about them. WU is going to make alot of revenue this year. They are booked for mad dates. I'll bet they can make at the least 400k each.

I noticed they just side stepped the song "Method Man"...They gave a lot of attention to "Protect Ya Neck" and "Cream" but "Method Man" was what made my city bow down. Thats when Meth was a scary nikka, he wasn't all jokey jokey yet...He was that new scary looking nikka which continued from Sticky Fingaz being the most recent scary nikka. This song was the one that had everyone talking. On the song "Pronto" by Cru..I understood exactly what he meant when he said "And my favorite joint is Method Man by Wu Tang"..I understood completely. I'd put money on it "White Owls" stock went up after this song...All of a sudden....White Owls became the wrap of choice and Phillys was old news. (Is it a coincidence when Meth started promoting Dutch Masters a year later everyone in my city was on the Dutch Master tip now? ....It was as if whatever Meth said was the wrap of choice the whole hood just went with it. Fronta Leaf and Garcia Vegas was more word of mouth compared to what Meth said was the in thing)


And everyone was repeating those suspect sounding torture methods in that skit before the album version of Method Man came on.

This video was that 1993 New York gritty shyt that had everyones attention. This was the song that made u remember everyones name due to the intro......Its like they sidestepped that whole moment.



Wow they don't mention the story behind Method Man in any of the four parts? Maybe it's a story they can't tell :francis:


:patrice:If you know what I mean.

Looks like they got the footage from various sources. Home videos, video music box, news channels, MTV, Bet, Vh1, public access, and that doc that Gza never put out. They also got plenty of footage from this German doc and repurposed it.
