This is not a classic. "Cream" is the only good song I found here..the rest of the album is filled with skits...Dont buy this.

I used to love the wu-tang clan. It was the first rap cd I ever bought. But after I started buying better cds like mobb deep, the pharcyde, flimode squad, and all types of techno, I noticed how crappy, and how comercial the wu-tang clan had become. The wu-tang clan are full of them selves, and the whole "shaolin", and "ninja" crap, is just Retarted.

This is the first review that I have written for Amazon, yet I felt compelled to do so. I purchased 36 Chambers on the recommendation of almost everyone who has ever written a review; which is to say that almost everyone loves this CD.
Let me start by saying that I am a huge student of rap music, have listened to almost every highly rated (and some not so highly rated) CD of the past 20 years, and continue to explore my collection daily. 36 Chambers is probably my least favorite. That is not to say that it's bad: I can see the merit in what it presents (especially lyrically). But to present this as a seminal work of rap makes no sense. The beats are predictable at best, sounding dated and irrelevant through many listens. C.R.E.A.M. is really the only song that carries a hook, albeit a very good one. What's missing from this album is production and flow. Lyrically, it's got some incredible storytelling behind it, but only on a few of the songs. Otherwise, I just found myself to be unimpressed and a little confused by all of the hype surrounding it. A five star review at Amazon should mean that the work is both accessable and exciting. It should both inspire and inform our world. This CD doesn't live up to it's reputation. At all...

My favorite CD's, for what it's worth:

Tupac - All Eyes On Me (No competition...Pick this up!!!)
Dr Dre - Chronic 2001
Outkast - ATLiens and Southernplaylisticadillacmusik
Mos Def - Black on Both Sides
Notorious BIG - Ready to Die
Jay Z - The Blueprint
Tupac - Me Against The World
Blackstar - Blackstar
The Fugees - The Score
The Roots - Phrenology

Since I am clearly in the minority of people that do not like 36 Chambers, I defer to all who came before me. Good Luck!!!

Wu Tang brings out the super honky in everyone. I mean it is so fhat its bigger than a honkasaurus. Once I started listening to this music I started drinking orange tang instead of kool aid. Yo man if you want to be down with the king you got to buy this disco compacto, thats spanish for I'm a honkey, and be prepared for the zangy, tangy super honk experience. Peace out my Tangy Clan
