Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)

Released

The breakthrough of a debut this permanently transformative seems nearly impossible — it’s this miraculous mixture of disillusionment, inspiration, ambition, circumstance, and rebellion that you sometimes get bubbling from the underground to take over pop culture maybe once every other decade. Raw like old Shaw Brothers film prints, immersive and arcane as a holy book, bound to the hood but knowing there’s a huge world outside of it ready for the taking.
