ja das is cool, habs im radio (fm4) gehört
die sollen besser gute Wu-Tang Sachen spielen und nicht Saian!
"1. Intro - A truly funny Intro, I like how RZA’s in the lab telling Choco to play the beat over. I wish there was more of these skits in between tracks to explain where RZA is off to next. 4/5
2. Mesmerize – A good first track. Feven sounds like a knowledgeable Foxy Brown and RZA gives us a sweet sounding Digi track for her to rhyme over. 4/5
3. Det E Sa Jag Kanner – The beat is a dope slow track but this is where the repetitiveness starts to creep in. The beat only switches up on the chorus. Petter flows pretty well although he seems to fall off beat once in a while. Still a good track 3/5
4. Scandinavian All-stars – This shit is ****in crazy. Best beat I’ve heard from RZA in a long time. And not in a 36 Chambers rugged style, but a cleaner Primo type style. All the Emcees rip it; I especially like the intro verse from Diaz. The only problem I have is RZA’s first verse:” Don’t **** with my money, son don’t **** with my bitch/ don’t **** with my lab or don’t **** with my whip/ don’t **** with my jewels, my weed or my dip, or I might get the glock son and **** with this clip/’, just not up to par with the amazing RZA verses we’ve heard. He makes up for it later in the song though, and leaves us with a great ****ing track. 5/5
5. North Sea – The intro is cool and I like the way the track is so laid back, like they were in the lab, smoking to this shit. The beat is simple Digi shit but it works and I’m always singing along with the hook. 4/5
6. Saian Intro – nice little beat box freestyle. Funny they rhyme better over this than the actual track. ¾
7. Saian – ****in sweet party track, the loop is repetitive but I still love pumping it. Ghost drops another sweet verse and the singer’s cool sounding like some ****ed up soul singer really hyping the track. But halfway through it goes a little downhill. RZA comes in and drops probably the worst verse of his career! Then the crew comes in and just aren’t very good. The first guy sounds like a French Pras, the second guy is good, but the third guy sounds like he didn’t hear the beat, he just tries to fit as many syllables into the verse as he can. Still a good sounding track. 3/5
8. French kiss – Sweet beat on this one, like a Gravel pit type monster mash type shit. Bams has a cool French seductress sounding voice which works and she starts off well although she kind of falls apart at the end. I like U-gods verse but It seems mixed too high, making it sound added in at the last moment. 4/5
9. Warning – the first wack track on the album. NAP is good and flow well but the beat isn’t very interesting and they can’t hold the track alone. 2/5
10. Dedicace - This track is cool having the same drumbeat from Severe Punishment. Passi seem to go off the bet a lot but come intense with a crazy Nazi sounding chorus. 4/5
11. Seul face a lui – Another fabulous beat. IAM drop some cool verses and RZA is great on the hook. This is a practically perfect track. 5/5
12. Souls on Fire - First time I heard this I couldn’t ****in believe it. The beat is so ****in different for RZA I was amazed. Xavier comes with some cool crooning shit, and Deborah Cox bounces off him. Very original. 5/5
13. Ich Weiss - I don’t know what the **** he is saying but I swear Curse kills this beat worse than INS, Rae and even Masta Killa!! So ****in dope. 5/5
14. Black Star Line-Up – Another cool RZA beat, great rhymes by Afrob & Sekou. No complaints. 5/5
15. I’ve Never Seen – Another shocking track. Totally different. The production isn’t very sophisticated though and RZA should have stayed off the track. I still can’t believe this is the man who was shouting, “Bring the Mother ****ing Ruckus!!” 3/5
16. Boing, Boing – I don’t know why but this is my favorite track right now. So ****ing raw, I wish the Bobby albums had more shit like this. The Emcees rhyme like the old Wu we loved with dope British accents. RZA kills it too. I love how Skinnyman says Wu Tang. 5/5
17. Make Money, Money – the beat is simple but unique in only the way RZA can do. The way you can hear the vocals about to come in and he cuts it, only RZA does that shit. The rhymes are ok but not very interesting. A nice track to cruise to. 4/5
18. Passporto Per Ressistere – Another wack beat. You think with the thousands of beats RZA supposedly has he could come up with something better. Maybe he was experimenting but I feel it doesn’t work. Frankie Hi NRG might be good but I can’t concentrate with the beat. 2/5
19. Uzathan Gelen Ses- Another experimental track but I think it comes off nicer than the last. The Emcees are raw, raw, raw, on this one. It’s pretty cool. 3/5"
