@@prizzle9234 The Get Down was one of the greatest depictions of black culture ever created. Most authentic.

I’m telling you man..When you get that girl? Don’t let her go man..I honestly wished them two was together today cause she was very supportive for Ghostface especially with taking care of her brothers when his moms drown in the tub 🛀
I mean she’s a female 😂! She ain’t gonna keep listening to her man’s shit all the time 🤣! I can dig that cause my girl don’t listen to my shit like that neither! It don’t mean she doesn’t love me any less! Women like different shit different trends
@@91Definite It’s not even the fact that you bumping other niggas, it’s the fact that you bumping our direct competition, if I’m correct Wu and Bad Boy had a slight lil beef cause ghost said on a skit that Biggie bit nas’ album cover cause nas had a child on his first then biggie had a child on his afterwards
Talk about a positive mindset with a bank robbers mentality! That’s true ambition and motivation all in one!!! That’s one of the dopest scenes in this series!
😌 I'm 43 now and I must've bought OB4CL at least 5 to 6 times on cassette, cd, and wax starting with the infamous "purple tape" at 14 years old. Rae & Ghost were so ahead of their time on that album (the whole Clan was) because the album doesn't sound outdated. In 2023 it still sounds as fresh and as relevant than any other album in hip-hop...it's damn near a masterpiece in terms of creativity in story telling, skill in rhyme between Rae, Ghost, other Clan members, and featured guest like Nas, not to mention production by the RZA. The Wu-Tang Clan (R.I.P. Ol' Dirty Bastard) is undoubtedly the BEST hip-hop group that has ever influenced the culture and graced the microphone and that's saying something considering RUN-DMC (R.I.P. Jam Master Jay), Ultramagnetic MCs, Tribe (R.I.P. Phife), De La (R.I.P. Trugoy), N.W.A (R.I.P. Eazy-E), Gangstarr (R.I.P. Guru), Mobb Deep (R.I.P. Prodigy), Cypress Hill, Souls of Mischief, The Alkaholiks, Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth, The Juice Crew (R.I.P. Biz Markie), EPMD and the Hit/Def Squad, The Boot Camp Click (R.I.P. Ruck/Sean Price), The Dungeon Family, UGK (R.I.P. Pimp C), were/are all great groups of the late 80s throughout the 90s of the "Golden Era". 👐 *u*
Boi the chef wasn't playing when he said him and ghost had next!! End up dropping one of the greatest hip-hop albums ever!!! Only built for cuban links! 🔥🔥
As much as I respect the Wu I feel the same. Rap is about balance. You can't be super conscious 24/7 you can actually enjoy yourself. Who else remembers the skit Only built 4 Cuban Links where they said Big was biting Nas Illmatic cover lol this was a well written scene.n
I remember the time as well. This had to be the spring of ninety five. I was fifteen. The Source had it advertised that Raekwon album was titled Only Made 4 Cuban Links. Before the title was rearranged some. Tupac was locked up in Clinton Correction (a rikers island wing). And Biggie Smalls, in less than a year since the release of his debut album, was KING 👑
🤣😂🤣🤣 Im dying. 1st time seeing this and if not for the way they look, Id swear thats a young RAy and Ghost. Salute to the actors and the originals. Wu saved my life growing up. I saw Ghost in Toronto in little Italy at a Jerk Chicken Restaurant: Royal Caribbean one time.. dude is like 6"5 had a conversation I said "Ghost! I hope you live 1000 years!" Ghost said "Thanks God" and continued on his cell.
Before you could just hear any song in your car any time you wanted to via music apps/bluetooth radio: You had to call in and request. When the One More Chance remix came out. It was just like this. Every car was bumping that chit all day every day and that's just from radio play let alone when the tape/CD came out.
What killed me is that she was tired of listening to her cousins shit cause she hear him in real life (ODB) 😂! I think Dirty had that effect on everyone that was around him 💯! But Ghost shouldn’t be telling her what to listen to and what not. Not all females is into the lyrical hip hop shit, my own girl might not listen to my music like that and that’s ok. But I get it, Wu Tang is still on the rise just cause they made one album don’t mean they set for life! Everyone in the mid 90’s in NY was in competition with each other. Which is crazy cause in the 80’s hip hop community was everyone was equal. Since then times have changed. EPMD was out the picture, Slick Rick was in jail, Kool G Rap was still tryna find his way after him and Polo run ended, Big Daddy Kane and LL was still active but they wasn’t getting the same success like that like when they first came out years ago during this time. Biggie was taking over the charts with that remix! The only people in NY on the rise after Biggie was Boot Camp Clik and Wu Tang still. Craig Mack music was overshadowed by Biggie which fucked him up. But this lets me know even today hip hop is a competitive genre. It always have been, everyone want the crown
@@91Definite Wu-Tang brought the spotlight back onto NYC after NWA and Ice-T made the West Coast sound blow up. Biggie kept the spotlight on NYC, so yes he had the most attention. He had pretty fierce competition in Wu, Nas, Jay Z and Big L among others though.
@@anthonyanderson9303 the beef was competition…Rae and Ghost later admitted that biggie first album was 🔥🔥🔥 when they heard it they knew a new wave was coming they wanted the spotlight Biggie had in New York .

@@mackinshizzaveli4202 the king of New York title came in 95 …Rae and ghost was sending shots way before that lol and yea boot camp click was sending shots along with a few others from Brooklyn
Nah by the time 50 came out Wu wasn't poppin as much anymore, other members were doing other projects on their own and RZA wasnt making the same beats we was used to hear during the golden days of Wu.
@@datboiijuanhtx I mean the afro samurai soundtrack was cool lol. No shade tho RZA is a legend no doubt but you cant deny his sound did downgrade after wu tang forever came out he didnt the same gritty vibes in his beats like he did in 36th chambers, OB4CL, Liquid Swords etc. The shit he was mainly recognized for. Like OB4CL was the peak on his production the beats he made on that joint was so godly it can never be replicated.
Can you imagine telling a girl she can't listen to no other rap other than you & your crew?? LOL As loyal as she is, soon as she step away from you, she gonna be bumping the shit she like. Imagine not listening to Biggie around this time...FOH
Heads wasn’t saying fire back in the mid 90’s. In real life she woulda I heard it’s phat or I heard it’s da bomb or it’s butter. I was around for that era, these writers gotta study.
They went from being enemies to being homies for life

This beef never happened. RZA just likes to tell stories smh.
They couldn't front... Biggie owned the summer of '95... until Rae & Ghost came out in Aug with the Purple Tape.
I remembered when I bought the Purple Tape in ‘95 when it dropped, bumping it in my homeboy Jeep Cherokee, driving to Willowbrook mall on FM 1960

Yo the same...I mentally went back to 95 as a teen...yea I had got goosebumps
Swear 2 God I jumped n the car & put on Criminology & rode the strip
I'm in Chicago and I remember when I first heard this biggie smalls song. I walked outside around 1pm and every car passing was playing it.
Facts!!!!
It was the smoothest rap song i ever heard when i heard it. Still can't get enough of it. From Nigeria
CHI-TOWN🥂
Ghost face killah character definitely embodies him more so far this season and the chefs
Its the opposite
The last episode he was the most spot on he’s ever been for sure
Nah Rae is character is a little spooky how he’s acting just like Rae

gave me chills. i heard that beat and yelled. OB4CL changed my life.
This is literally how it was when One More Chance remix came out, it was played over and over and over, Biggie owned the whole summer with this song

Thanks for this!!
They did a good job playing Ra and ghost, one of my favorite parts
This scene has me hyped af
Rae and Ghost are like twins
Those jackets r fire

Ice cream
Criminology!!
Facts
And it was trash
@@emekaosuagwu6416 trash to an idiot maybe
That ending was fire…
Man this is why I miss the 90s. The 90s was a dope era but,? A lot competition on who got the best albums who got best bars
This was a Hypnotized with Hate moment that turned out good
😂😂😂😂😂
The best scene in that episode 👍🏽 Blackman & Robbin 😏
Best scene of the whole series next 2 the Staten Island Ferry scene when they formed with Reunited playing
That last part got watched over and over and over! Wutang again ! Ah yeah again and again!
I remember when all this was going on biggie , jay z and nas and ghost & rae fighting for that crown 👑 throwing shots at each other in their songs
Seriously?
Jay z was not relevent during 95
Damn. Going to the Wu store and seeing Ghostface and Raekwon outside would be pretty cool.
Best duo in the WU!
Those jackets are fire 🔥
That's what I'm sayin
That was the start of the Criminology Style.
BEWARE THE COMING OF THE LEGENDARY PURPLE TAPE!!!
... & Rae didn't wear not damn chokers, FOH
Yo, those actors HAVE IT!

These two are great actors.
That’s how Raekwon got beef wit BIG then kick in the door
Big had all the hoochies grooving back then ....Got some good head/knowledge...when this song came out still got the cd ...lol
From this moment forward history was made
Raekwon and Ghost wrote the book on Mafioso rap
Kool G Rap wrote the book…Ghost and Rae threw a different spin on it
“We got next.” 😤😤
The purple tape is my favorite album of all times
Than only built for Cuban linx drops..rest is history they DEF had next lmaooo

Then those two turned around and made they own jam that the ladies liked "Ice Cream"
good build up , hopefully the making of ice cream pops up cause they made a ladies hit with that one
don't get me wrong it was still a good ep , just hoped it was like what really happened inside the studio
