Wu-Tang Wednesday



The Wu-Tang Clan are like those little Russian Matryoshka dolls that decrease in size but gain in numbers as you disassemble them. In the case of these two songs we have little rap-supergroup dolls inside of...enough about dolls.

Who really wants to talk about little babushkas all day long anyways?

Oh yeah, basketball!

After devouring Bill Simmons's latest 700 page diatribe I've become more obsessed with basketball than ever, so I've decided to employ NBA analogies to breakdown the latest breakup of a suposedly reunified group.

Group 1.

Ghost, Rae and Meth = the 1996-1998 3-Peat Chicago Bulls. Meth is Jordan, Rae is Pippen and Ghost is Rodman cause he's bat-shit insane.

Check out the song.




Group 2.

GZA, Masta Killa & Inspectah Deck = the 2003 - 2007 San Antonio Spurs. These guys are all team players who believe in fundamentals (beats, rhymes, life). They're all Tim Duncan.

This song is off of Mathematics' Return of the Wu & Friends which drops on February 16th. Props to Matt for the song.

Here's a taste:


The RZA is definitely more of a Phil Jackson kind of coach than a Gregg Poppovich, and on a completely tasteless note, ODB = Len Bias. Sorry.
