When you listen to new material from a group or artist that you admired, let’s say in 1993, listener reaction is usually based on one of two possibilities: a throwback to the previous year or a sound comparable to the current day in age. For Wu-Tang fans who nervously await their much-anticipated return album, 8 Diagrams, there is hesitation and anxiety; listeners want to hear new material as if it were left off the classic Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). On the track Take It Back, the title lending to a dead giveaway, there no longer should be any worries. Produced by Easy Mo Bee and (of course) RZA, the old school cut features Raekwon, Inspectah Deck, Ghostface and U-God all spitting verses and Method Man joining along for the hook. 8 Diagrams is currently set to be released on December 11th off SRC/Universal Motown.
Dont usually like Wu-Tang but diz iz aite!! Its got a real nyce flo 2 it and da whole track haz gotta str8 beat wif bad lyrics.. Played it 3 timez ova s0 yawl noe wat it iz!!
Beat is so freshing in this age of synthesized BS. But the fact its "takin it back wit this" didn't even need to be mentioned, would have been more...mmm...classy is that the word i am lookin for here? Ok, it works. But these guys still feel like they are punching the clock and being forced to do this...what happened to that staten island energy? I hope the next single has them feeling like they love this. i am not expecting 1993 hunger...but the ones they are taking it from...are displaying way more drive than they do here....
Please guys, get this right..
Sincerely,
WU-FAN #1
The More I listen to the New Wu tracks out there, the more I realize how much I collectively miss them! To this day, their style is still like no other and this track definitely displays that! Definitely in rotation...not their strongest track but decent...
I'm feeling this! Like '94 back all over again. The beat's a cool solid ride and each clan member delivers superb. Wu-Tang! Wu-Tang! Wu-Tang! Wu-Tang! Forever yall!
ya know what I like when they have those extra sound effect mixed in with there stuff, anyhow I like it!
but I hope there is bettter more relavant stuff to there lives now and not then.
