Free Music Notes for 8 Diagrams
Free Music Review: Its OK
Hit: 3 Stars
Yeah, Wu Tang is unpredictable, and thats the problem. When I buy a Wu release, I want to hear the Wu, not someone else. When Wu appear on only slightly more than half, I am a little disappointed.
The hot tracks on this one are:
Take It Back
Unpredictable
And Wu knows these are the best tracks as they are the tracks that headline the DVD that its packaged with. Speaking of the DVD, its good from an inside the studio point of view, but the concert footage is NOT good. Distortion, and worst of all its censored.
Overall its just OK. I'll listen to those teo tracks religiously and delete the rest from the mp3 player.

Hit: 4 Stars
I know this album got a lot of hate. Look nothing could ever top Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). But this album bring a lot of heat. The first 5 tracks are hard tracks that remind me why i love wu tang and even heart gently weeps is ok. Wolves is nice and listen to Sunlight. thats wu tang music. Look this is not their best work but its a lot better then Wu Tang Iron Flag. and what did you expect they have not been doing punch you in your face music for a long time. Im happy with this album and am looking forward to some more solo and group albums from the WuFree Music Review: Back In The Mix!
Hit: 4 Stars
After 6 years of not releasing a clan album, Wu-Tang Clan finally got back together to release another grimey, gritty and dope album. I was very hyped and waited a very long time for this album, so after finally getting it on release day, I was satisfied from what I heard. Let me explain.
If you listen closely to each song, everyone in Wu-Tang Clan still gots it lyrically. I really didn't find any wack lyrics of verses, and thought they held it down. Some songs with good lyrics are "The Heart Gently Weeps", "Gun Will Go", "Sunlight"(RZA Solo), "Life Changes". But the rest of the songs are definitely good lyrically.
The production and beats is where some people seem to down this album saying its wack. Well, if you have listened to as much Wu-Tang as other hardcore fans have, you will know the whole style RZA has and how he changes it up. In the past 8 years, you can see the way RZA has changed his production (not in a bad way I might add) and it shows in this album. In 8 Diagrams, you will still find grimey beats, bangers, and chill beats. I give respect to RZA for trying something different because it adds more to the album. Some beats I think that are great are "Campfire", "Rushing Elephants", "The Heart Gently Weeps"(RZA came together with the great idea of adding real instruments), "Weak Spot", "Gun Will Go".
Overall let me say this, if you have been a Wu-Tang Clan for years, and you also own other solo/Wu Affiliate albums, then you should feel this album. I'll admit though, in all honesty I think they could have waited a little longer to release the album and add more to it or maybe change a few things but that doesn't bring back this album at all! If you like real hip-hop or Wu-Tang this album should definitely be in your collection.
