Of course it was the beginning of the end, as it was the end of Rza's 5 year plan they had agreed on. They all kind of became their own leaders post-Forever, as established stars vs hungry up and coming MCs, so obviously the music was gonna be different. I wish they had all chosen to keep on working within the extended Wu Fam because there was more than enough talent. And that Rza had supervised more closely with the Wu Fam Mcs and producers (Sunz of Man, Killarmy, Timbo King, Shyheim, 4th, etc...) to kind of have a stronger Wu post 5 year plan:yeshrug:

To me it's that shyt where rappers and producers talk about improving their craft and how they are way better than they used to be. Technically that may be true but in the final product that shyt comes out to technical. As fans we love and want that raw feeling which I think the album was missing some of.

And while I say that I do love the album. Them nikkas was spitting.

Well yeah a lot of times you were making do with what you had, but when you got all the resources at your disposal it feels like you owe it to yourself to do the things you wanted to do with your original project and grow as an artist.

I never blame nobody for that, but I can see how it can frustrate some fans. As an amateur producer myself I do this to myself all the time, you start learning new techniques and using new equipment and a lot of that stuff you used to do, you wouldn't even consider doing it again, or can't do again.
