The heavy sound of the legendary hip-hop group from New York.
The entire album is dominated by dark, hardcore beats typical of the East Coast.
This is a tense piece that weaves together each member's rap style and RZA's dense beat-making. While making full use of a variety of samples, including soul and kung fu movie music, it consistently pursues the essence of heavy, raw hip-hop. This is a seminal work that had a major impact on the East Coast scene since the 2000s.
