URGENT APPEAL: I am missing my other lucky sock for tonight’s #Cymru game and would appreciate its safe return asap, diolch ️️️ #WuTangClan

On 28 March 1995, Wu-Tang Clan member Ol' Dirty Bastard released his solo debut 'Return to the 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version'.

Mastering the art of combining sly lyricism with fractional singing, his delivery "inadvertently godfathered rap's drugged up rambling style that's popular now, kinda like how Iggy Pop unintentionally created punk rock in '69."

"Then we got the Ol' Dirty Bastard
'Cause there ain't no father to his style" - Method Man

OL' DIRTY BASTARD - Return To The 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version

https://emcritic.blogspot.com/2015/03/ol-dirty-bastard-return-to-36-chambers.html

One of a kind, this album. No one could replicate what Ason Unique brings here, and nor has anyone tried, less they be branded a lesser wanna-be copycat. And you don't want to be branded that, by g'ar!

So much music now makes me go "Who released What now !?"

Anyhue -this week Wu Tang Clan released a new single .

Yes, yes, I too had the check to make sure I hadn't been pulled backwards in time.

It is indeed March 2025.

INSPECTAH DECK - The Resident Patient

https://emcritic.blogspot.com/2015/03/inspectah-deck-resident-patient.html

I wrote how INS didn't have the greatest track record as a solo artist, but wasn't aware that he'd already kicked off Czarface by that point. Then again, that's more a collab' than a solo project, so I guess the original thesis holds true?

WU-TANG CLAN - A Better Tomorrow

https://emcritic.blogspot.com/2015/01/wu-tang-clan-better-tomorrow.html

How has it been a decade now, and this remains the Wu's last album? Right, technically that ultra-rare one is, but no one really cares about 'Once Upon A Time In Shaolin' - how could they, if they never hear it?

I dunno', it just feels weird that the Clan hasn't reconvened for something proper in ten years. Not that they *need* to, just weird, is all.

GHOSTFACE KILLAH - 36 Seasons

https://emcritic.blogspot.com/2015/01/ghostface-killah-36-seasons.html

Man, did I ever enjoy this period of Mr. Coles' career, fully embracing whatever wild concept was springing to his mind. Creativity with no filter, and the skill to pull it off.

"Time rules everything around me
T.R.E.A.M. get some rest
chilly chilly chill ya'll"

Political signage continues to proliferate in the neighborhood. Although this one featuring Wu-Tang Clan is quite unique.

RAEKWON - Only Built For Cuban Linx... Pt. II

https://emcritic.blogspot.com/2014/10/raekwon-only-built-for-cuban-linx-pt-ii.html

The sequel everyone wanted, gotted, and even enjoyed! Was it as genre defining as the first? No, but it didn't need to be. Just carry one at the same caliber and we'll be sated.
