Wu Tang: Iron Flag. Thoughts?
After stumbling upon this at my local Best Buy(not much fanfare on this one), I decided to pick it up.
Much to my pleasure it seemed to go back in style, to more of a 36 Chambers type feel, as opposed to "The W".(Still not as good as 36 Chambers though...).
This is one of the better Wu projects in awhile, just wondering what others thought

Iron Flag is definitely a solid album and I agree it's no 36 Chambers...but then again what is? I'm in the mood now to break out 36 Chambers, Only Built 4 Cuban Links, Supreme Clientele, Liquid Swords, Tical...ooh too much Wu.

Nas "Stillmatic" is definitely superior to "Iron Flag".
As far as Wu-Tang, I still think disc 1 of Forever is the best 40 minutes they've ever done.
"Iron Flag" is just average IMO.
Ghostface's new one "Bulletproof Wallets" is killer though.

But I do second the new Ghostface being awesome.

Just a few sound clips from older albums. I believe he's still locked up

What no one picked up the new Mobb Deep album? I think it's one of their strongest albums yet, and I think Havoc may have taken Prodigy lryically on this one.
