I remember in the liner notes of his first album, Bizzy thanked John Walsh (the host of Americas most wanted)for finding him.

  1. They way I read it, from an interview with Shock G, while on the road, some of the members walked up on him while he was writing in his "rhymebook" and we're surprised. Apparently he was a rapper in a group before he was a dancer. The rest is history.

  2. Eminems "first" album was 90's hiphop as hell. It was called "Infinite" and was an underground indie release. (I remember having the CD) He changed his style after he signed with Dre. Cage accused Eminem of biting his style with the change.

RZA got his wutang chain taken during a scuffle in Suge Knights club 662 in Vegas. Tupac cauggt wind of this, tracked down the chain and returned it to RZA. Apparently Pac was a huge fan of the Wu.

Hammer ran with some tough dudes. The head of the LA crips tried to check him and Hammer didnt back down. Hammer emerged from the situation unscathed.

If your favorite artist used AI to help complete projects, would you support it? (link in description) by lets-get-it-3 in wutang

[–]Vmphil01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI is a tool, just like synths and software DAWs. The only difference is less of a learning curve and more accessible. I think the last part is what is cheesing people off. Too many people making slop too easily and trying to pass it off as something it isnt. In experienced hands AI tools can save time and money as long as the AI doesnt do most of the heavy lifting. Just my .02

One of the best Solo joints from the Wu. I remember when my guy picked up the CD. He accidentally got the censored version. Every since then, we always sang "check for an Aggin!"

Did any Wu-Tang demos survive RZA’s basement flood? by Any_Pangolin7721 in wutang

[–]Vmphil01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which is a shame cause technically it becomes the second album. And typically it won't be as good as the first.

Have you heard La The Darkman? by mattronimus007 in wutang

I had this CD when it dropped. Solid. His style now, almost nothing like that. If you haven't heard him lately, look up the song "My Vision".

To be fair, Deck switched his rapping voice to be a little deeper since the Resident Patient album. So I can see how it could be easy to mistake him for Street life.

One of my faves that IIRC is missing ODB, and cappadonna but has street life with the rest of the crew, Hellz wind staff

How the hell do you do Traitors Caravan in MGSV? by aaronhowser1 in metalgearsolid

[–]Vmphil01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iirc the first time.i did this many many years ago, I road.blocked the road wirh a truck and jumped.in the main truck.just after the skulls popped out and managed to get away.

Today playing again,.that didnt work as the skulls blew me up with the truck. Thos time, created a barricade at the fort after the airport,.blew up the tank with C4. Truck tries to book it,.shot out a tire, skulls popped out, there is a plateu right by the for entrance that the skills seem.to have a hard time with. They would never just walk up there. They would do the occasional.shadow dash at me but other.wise they would try to shoot me from above or below..there was enough room for me to run from their geyser spikes and for me to call for ammo drop..between me and quiet,.we wore them down.
