NajehD.Dec 13, 2007Big Wu-Tang fan, but this was disappointing as hell. I wanted a Wu-Tang album, not a bunch of old dudes rapping over a hippie jam festival. I hope this album does grow on me but right now i ain't feelin this at all.

Whether they love it or hate it. It is a departure from previous releases and it does focus on melody and guitars and strings, but it is also lush and well-crafted and smart and addictive.

Ghostface Killah is as wickedly esoteric as ever, Method Man sounds reinvigorated and snapped out of his recent slump, and Raekwon, who's been on record decrying 8 Diagrams, is ice-pick sharp.

Minus ODB, the collective's most charismatic member, and rife with in-group strife, 8 Diagrams is a long way from the hip hop revolution, "Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)." It still ain't nothin’ to fuck with.
