Yes, it was so much everywhere that it started to become a bit annoying... but I hope those wu warriors made a Fortune out of it... after watching thr first season of the saga ... wow guys. Rip haze
I was late on Wu tang as coming up I only really knew about meth , and a little ghostface. U-God & Deck get busy too, even ODB when he would push his pen could impress too, that Neptunes record he did off the clones album was fire.
That's something I never understood. I think they all sat around each other watching kung-fu movies and freestyling.. Feeding off each other's energy , sharpening each other's swords.
I listened to this in jail for the first time in the early 00's 24 years later after my kid bought a Wu-Tang t-shirt, I finally sat down to watch the video to it. Damn time flies!! Wu-Tang are a great hip-hop group.
you know what I love about wu tang. They cross generations, ethic groups and everyone from every strata of life love them. If you have ever been to a wu show from the 90's till today. You know what I am talking about.
that's RZA for you lol.. he loves his martial arts stuff lol.. pretty much all of wu tang's stuff has some kind of martial arts theme to it.. kinda why i loved them so much.
My bro always use to say this was the theme tune to the movie but I could never really see how it related to the film but hey what ever banging tune and super cool video
I already loved this back when I was 14 and didn't understand half the lyrics, I've only come to appreciate it more as time went on. A fantastic song from a fantastic group!

I swear u can take every bar u-god has ever had and have one long ass track his flow is just butter. No matter what ur cooking he doesnt change it. Heres ur butter.
Method Man‘s flow was absolutely top noch💯💯 Ridiculous how he flows like water over the beat‼️‼️ As a kid a had my mouth open hearing this for the very first time😵
This song and video are so awesome! Brings back good memories from when I was a young'in. I wish more stuff was made of this level of artistic talent. Happy Juneteenth and Happy Father's Day to everyone!
I don't think they're all that good as a group. They haven't made anything memorable in like two decades. Solo, on the other hand... I'm excited about the new RZA albums + new Ghostface Killah albums! Ghost has, in my opinion, been the most consistent quality wise. RZA never disappoints as a rapper, but he's not exactly been consistent with releasing solo music, but I'm still excited to hear what he has to bring.
I was 10 when this came out. I remember watching it on MTV. It was the golden age of music videos, and the beginning of cable TV in my country. This video has it all: scantily clad black women, gorgeous, lavish set design, garish costumes, CGI dinosaurs, lots of extras and props. For a white, European kid from a small country, this was awesome.
@@liljiajiali8160 late early 2000's?Golden age of music videos?? This guy probably never seen a Hype Williams video or 'Drop'(By pharcyde)... Now those were the days lolll. Just Teasing Michael! :P Grandmaster flash 'The message' is super iconic!
Dang!! Brings me back to high school!! In 2001, this came out on Source Award's Greatest Hits CD, and since my 1989 Cutlass Ciera only had a tape deck, I'd record my fave CDs to blank cassettes and YUP!! This was of those JAMS!! My brother, now 32, remembers me taking him to little kids basketball practice with this track bumping in my stereo!

DJKARMATV Biggie was chill with Meth (The What) but Rae and Ghost beefed with him a bit (Shark Niggas (Biters)) when they claimed he ripped off Nas' album cover
When I was young, I remember we'd pop a VHS tape into the VCR and record every video on MTV, BET, VH1. This was one of them. I was watching their documentary and then a clip of this video came on and I was like "oh shit, that was a song by the Wu?!" All sorts of parts of my memory and brain lit up! Wu Tang is Forever!

The sad part isn't that today's artists are garbage, is that they're basically copying the same style as other people and that's bringing them success from what I'm seeing.
the weird thing is censorship nowadays, there should be free speech, and the expression of censored words has its meaning, rap parts are about showing the opinions, attitudes, it must be not nicely said, it is it.
Wu-tang really had a way in how they were able to connect with lower middle class white kids who grew up in upper-class white communities. As one of those lower middle class white kids, this song really spoke to me as a teenager. Thank you wu-tang .
Back when songs were longer than 1 minute and the video was a pivotal part of the song! Fresh as tf!! I am a huge Wu Tang fan now, thanks to their American Saga story I woulda just known about their name and a few songs, bt whew what a treat! This group is the only group in the world where everyone is raw as tf together and solo!!!!

Back in the day when creativity was the order of the day for music videos.
Stg i see this guy everywhere
@@williamsturgis2717 oo
When creativity was a necessity in general in hip hop.
You mean back in the day when they sold singles for €5 and had a million to blow on a music video.
and no one into anime knew what hip hop was
Method Man's flow is amazing!!.
Don't forget Ghosface killa
Meth and Ghost killed it
I agree. But Ghost Face's was scary!
Ghostface
Yea but unfortunately ghost was more amazing on this track buddy
One of my favorite wu tang songs, this album is so underrated
Lmfao
My god. I forgot how good was hip hop and especially Wu Tang back in the day. On fire
Hi. This video is ridiculously good. I've never seen it before - learning about Wu Tang now. I am 58. Late bloomer, I guess. Their sound is EPIC.
Man this hit still sounds good all these years later ! Thank You Wu
you're so right (like yesterday, so they where ahead)
Wu Tang forever.

I like how a bunch of Ninjas followed them back and started shit with them in prehistoric times.

Wu Tang got enemies in every era

This song is as good today as it was when it dropped. Still a banger.
I'm proud to say Tupac and Biggie would be proud of this group continuing original hip hop into the 2000s. Keep it up all members of Wu Tang!
