Masta Killa, KA & Gza have managed to master what I call the “calm bomb” technique. Very reserved, still explosive, well spoken, less long but twice as strong in terms of content and verses. Phenomenal bodies of work from all of them. Gza and Masta Killa should do a joint album together. I think it’s long overdue. #allpraisesdue #peacetothegods
You on point with that! KA is mad calm. Roc is fire and the Genius is is is a genius. He the head....we form like Voltron and just happen to be the head
Jamie Vick i been saying that for years..i want to see a gza,master killa and killa priest album..i want it to be called the 3 wiseman with a image of them 3 in the desserts dress in dessert outfit..and all 3 of them pointing towards a star in the sky shaped in the wu tang logo sign ..just like the 3 wiseman in the bible...i want the productions to be the same as it was on the beneath the surfaces production..and i want a booklet with all the lirics and all 3 of them breaking dow. exaclty what they meant in eachrimes on some wu-thesaurus tip..
Actually there's a lot of people who reckon he was ridin' coat tails or that some of his stuff on NSD wasn't worth the wait or that he fell off the map on his next two albums. He's quite a divisive figure in the Wu pantheon.
I am so happy that you've dedicated an entire interview to this man. He's way too overlooked. Hearing about how he came up with his classic rhymes... very pleased
Masta Killa is a such a humble and positive brother, it was a joy watching this video and really changed my frame of mind today. Plus, that Loyalty is Royalty is a new classic! Much Respect.
Peace! I agree. Definitely vintage Wu sound. I wrote a review for Weekly Rap Gods.com as well. But cho...real talk...the illest sh#t poppin right now is a group called CLOUD CITY PROJECTS. I was rocking to the new Wu LP to write a review to it. But THIS right here sun...better than the most LP's I've heard this year.
No Said Date, MK’s first album is really really good imo. It came waaaay later than it should have but it is fire. Highly recommend if some of the Wu heads out there haven’t heard it. Excellent guest appearances and beats.
i met this man in person he is exactly who he says he is humble thorough dude god bless this brova met him on the set of a straight to dvd movie 💯🔥👌🏽 bobby digital
At 34 minutes Rosenberg says Wu wasn't on Hot97 radio during Wu-Tang Forever. He forgets or overlooks that Wu was boycotted off Hot97 for 10 years. MK probably just didn't want to reopen old wounds. That's old news. That's why Wu wasn't on NYC radio during late 90's/early 00's. But even without Hot97's and NYC radio support WU-TANG WAS STILL SINGLEHANDEDLY RUNNING THE RAP GAME. They didn't need radio. They were the top hip-hop group of all time.
rubski 1978 do you remember what the track was called? I packed all my cd's away years ago, wana go and dig that one and uncontrolled substance out of the vault and bump that shit
His verse on "Assassination Day" on Ghostface album is my favorite by him. He had the illest verse on the Enter The 36 Chambers verse next to Inspectah Deck's CREAM verse, and all of ODBs verses.
Super underrated. A remarkable thinker with, ACTUALLY quote: “lyrical” content. Study his verse on triumph. He is very calm, fluent, metaphorical and scientist without it sounding verbose and over the top nerdy back pack. Instead it sounds more like a smooth ol g from the block that possesss natural stability in his composure and his ability to paint really dope pictures. ANYONE who says that he’s some type of nobody foot note in the clan is sadly ignorant and a hack as far as hip hop listening is concerned.
Lot of dope albums this year Prodigy - hegelian dialectic Sean Price - Imperius Rex Thirstin Howl - Skillmatic Psycho Les of The Beanuts - Dank God Apathy & O.C. - Perestroika Czarface - First Weapon Drawn Kool G Rap - Return of the Don Talib Kweli and Styles P - The Seven Roc Marciano - Rosebudd's Revenge Raekwon - The Wild. Etc... I've been consuming some good rap this year. Peace to the Gods!!!
Chessboxing was his first and Glaciers Of Ice is his third. He said he wasn't even rhyming when he met GZA just before the Clan got signed. That's crazy how he can just come with that. He also grew up around Jeru and Afu Ra.
First time seeing this interview today lol dude is too cool in all interviews. The clan saga shows how this went down for sure... the chess reference took me back to rza's part where playing chess against his negative and stubborn self process... this makes the show 50 times illa in my head 😆
I need to know what fountain of youth, blood sacrifice, some of these Wu Tang members are partaking in, b/c Masta Killa looks 30. Method Man looks younger now then he did back then. It's so good to see brothas aging so handsomely and gracefully!!!
He's been through some shit, he's very good at answering a question without actually answering it. He's a very quiet reserved individual. There's a pain in his eyes, like he's hiding the darkest of secrets. I know we've all got skeletons but...
I think the Original Rage/Wu Tang tour was 1997.. I remember being a senior in High school and The Dave Matthews Band concert was the same night in Boston.. The goodie goodie rich kids went to DMB and us stoners and bad asses were going to Rage Against the Machine WU Tang Clan show in the suburbs of Boston... The class was divided... WE saw the better show!.. Killa bees on tha swarm!! Wu Tang Forever!
Master Killah has the mannerisms in the similitude of Barry Sanders. For those who don't know, Barry Sanders is a former pro football 🏈 athlete who played running back for the Detroit Lions of the N.F.L.
Just wanted to say after listening to the new Moon project at Mastic killers new album and watching his interview he is right about sharpening his craft the whole way through because from my standpoint now he is the best Lyricist and you can hear it in the songs and then the lyrics and it is falling attack so it's good to see someone still taking it seriously not that the rest of them don't but I got to say man Master killer is the sharpest now. And you can't really tell me wrong if you listen to all the newest stuff peace
Rosenberg I'm from Md actually Baltimore and sold and smoked with Cappadonna.... We have a thing called "Hacks" where people give a ride and are paid for transportation! That's what he was doing here in Baltimore, the charge if caught (because it is illegal😂) is called "Gypsy Cab"
this the most words he's ever spoken on camera in life
facts
lol 😂
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lmao word!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! actually this the first time I ever seen an interview period wit him...
He never talks B!😂😂😂
"proceed with caution as you enter..." -Masta Killa. Extremely underrated emcee.
Penn Papyrus I was just bumping ob4cb and that verse gave me brain chills.
Masta Killa, KA & Gza have managed to master what I call the “calm bomb” technique. Very reserved, still explosive, well spoken, less long but twice as strong in terms of content and verses.

Jamie Vick you gotta throw Roc Marciano on that list. And it's 100
dope observation .
You on point with that! KA is mad calm. Roc is fire and the Genius is is is a genius. He the head....we form like Voltron and just happen to be the head
Half short and twice strong. Love it!

This dude killed A LOT of verses and always went hard, from "Chessboxin'"onward
Heavily underrated rap artist!
Big time

Is he the most humble MC in history?
Brian C no doubt
Rakim
KA
Inspectah too!
he up there but I nominate Jay Steele for his song "Peace Not War" off "For The Love" album
I am so happy to see all the comments and love for Masta here. Sometimes you feel like people forgot who our legends are.
Real down-to-earth and humble dude.
Best interview ever. Masta Killa seems like the most humble and respectful dude out there. Lots to learn about life from this interview
Awesome dude fore sure
Too humble. He hit the ground running with the best.
Masta Killa is a such a humble and positive brother, it was a joy watching this video and really changed my frame of mind today. Plus, that Loyalty is Royalty is a new classic! Much Respect.
humble OG. one of my fav wu members. all his albums are classic. #WuTang4eva
this guy is the man....so smooth, so deep.
Love how he gives no input until hes literally asked. Very smart man. I respect that alot. As simple as it is. Thats a very rare thing to see in life.
Loyalty is Royalty = top 5 hip-hop albums of this year 🔥🔥🔥

Masta Killa is such a humble person. I've never met him in person but he seems to be a great guy. I love the Wu but they ain't like that.

Nah. He would clown you...

Why were they boycotted? Where did you hear that?
I think Wu dissed them on stage or something
Cappadonna and Masta Killa are very slept on
Masta Killa's voice 😍😍
6:29 i used to play this verse over and over again like 30 times a day, simply amazing; and winter warz is wu tang song number one and always will be

He not underrated man stop it..he gets mad respect in the rap world....masts kill use to kill everything he used to rap on back Than
One of my Favorites
People hate on Pete but he gives the best interviews because he’s such a fan and geek for this culture. Juan Ep did it before everyone
Lot of dope albums this year
Prodigy - hegelian dialectic
Sean Price - Imperius Rex
Thirstin Howl - Skillmatic

Raekwon - The Wild. Etc...
I've been consuming some good rap this year. Peace to the Gods!!!
Chuck Pee Czarface from 2016. Peace
cbfwebs good catch b.
That was his first rhyme!?? Unreal👏
Facts. I remember him saying during other Wu Tang Interviews.
Chessboxing was his first and Glaciers Of Ice is his third. He said he wasn't even rhyming when he met GZA just before the Clan got signed. That's crazy how he can just come with that.
He also grew up around Jeru and Afu Ra.
@@lezlethal him and Afu got some 🔥 together
Iconic interview
His chessboxin verse is my favourite Wu verse ever. Seems like such a down to earth dude 👐🏻🐝
Cappadonna has one of the hardest bars in hip hip EVER.they all killed it, but he made it his song...
He killed that Glaciers of Ice
New dudes still doin Hip Hop superbly...Conway and Westside Gunz...FIRE!
KingIzKash The list goes longer. Since you're an East Coast dude check out Eshon Burgundy from Philly and that kid Axel Leon is raw.
716⬆
big up to Rosenberg for being a true hip hop head
Great interview 🔥
Thank u #hot97 great interview
Peace to the God Jamel Irief! One of the illest to bless the mic. Going to cop this album tomorrow.
Humble man, respect the Masta!
Such a great interview. Now go get some other members please!
First time seeing this interview today lol dude is too cool in all interviews. The clan saga shows how this went down for sure... the chess reference took me back to rza's part where playing chess against his negative and stubborn self process... this makes the show 50 times illa in my head 😆

Chess connoisseur.
First rhyme ever written ..... is amazing.
Cool dude raw MC.......and humble dude
Wu Tang 4ever!!
After watching this interview
I went and listened to OLD MAN
That's my jam. Peace Old Dirty
I need to know what fountain of youth, blood sacrifice, some of these Wu Tang members are partaking in, b/c Masta Killa looks 30. Method Man looks younger now then he did back then. It's so good to see brothas aging so handsomely and gracefully!!!
I think most of them are vegan
Their diet.. most of them practice fasting, and they work out.. also they don't party like they use to
aoescool cool
How To Eat To Live by Elijah Muhammad NOI. Org.
Peace and shout out Rosenberg for that hard ass MJ pullover
Respect ! A well spoken mc telling it like it was or is ! FACTS !
Absolutely great interview
He's been through some shit, he's very good at answering a question without actually answering it. He's a very quiet reserved individual. There's a pain in his eyes, like he's hiding the darkest of secrets. I know we've all got skeletons but...
Marcus Jackson
yes he does...he keeps it the real reason why tbey. ickname him master killler on a low
Just da way he comes in on his verses on songs!😳
great interview and great album
This interview was way better than the one he did with Vlad.
Coz Vlad's a batty crease bruv!! 😂
all of Vlads interviews suck, he doesnt do his research and asks his questions in a very drawn out manner
rosenburg changed his style up for this interview. no bullshit or small-mindedness. He knew MK would bust that ass.
wu forever. love masta killa
He's a great rapper
I think the Original Rage/Wu Tang tour was 1997.. I remember being a senior in High school and The Dave Matthews Band concert was the same night in Boston.. The goodie goodie rich kids went to DMB and us stoners and bad asses were going to Rage Against the Machine WU Tang Clan show in the suburbs of Boston... The class was divided...

Whoever thinks that Masta Killa is Ghostface, obviously is not a Wu fan
Razor Blade White People always intentionally call Black People the wrong thing intentionally. Don't believe me? Ask Sam Jackson?
Nigga u right... But they LOOK ALIKE
I knew it!!!!!!masta killa half 🇵🇷 visting Fam at 10 yrs old
Good interview!
Word...Dope interview 🗽
Rosenberg is trying to figure out The Masta Killer's craft.
Haha "We will never teach the Wu Tang" Chop Chop 👐
Master Killah has the mannerisms in the similitude of Barry Sanders. For those who don't know, Barry Sanders is a former pro football 🏈 athlete who played running back for the Detroit Lions of the N.F.L.
masta killaa my favorite Wu Tang member bcz of how low key he is compared to the others
(18:51) So that's why Cap started with Maryland first..."If you in Maryland, check for a nigga"
'The Pillage' is an immortal album god... Amazing album, beats & rhymes and features
Simon Forrest #facts love that album especially south of the border..
True Master laced that track
He was here 15 some years ago. I don't if he still is.
Just wanted to say after listening to the new Moon project at Mastic killers new album and watching his interview he is right about sharpening his craft the whole way through because from my standpoint now he is the best Lyricist and you can hear it in the songs and then the lyrics and it is falling attack so it's good to see someone still taking it seriously not that the rest of them don't but I got to say man Master killer is the sharpest now.

Represent Wu!! 🔥
Masta Killa, "People think I'm Ghost."
Rosenberg, "You're only wearing one sweatshirt. That's impossible." LOL XD I died a little on that one.
