Everything, literally everything Jay-Z has done since The Black Album is weak. Everything.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_Swords
"Liquid Swords was a 1995 (see 1995 in music) solo album by Wu-Tang Clan member Genius (GZA). Though the album was credited to Genius alone, there are numerous guest appearances from the entire Wu-Tang Clan, like all their earlier solo albums. Liquid Swords is widely acknowledged as one of the best Wu-Tang solo albums, on par with classics like Tical (Method Man), Ironman (Ghostface Killah) and Only Built 4 Cuban Linx (Raekwon).
Liquid Swords is characteristic of the Wu-Tang Clan in its distinctive, sparse, menacing beats by producer RZA, and its cinematic themes relating to Martial Arts films. The album begins with a monologue from a little boy; his monologue, and many of the other skits scattered throughout the album, are from the cult film Shogun Assassin.
The track names listed on the back of the album cover are incorporated into a short paragraph, and are not in order. The liner notes list two tracks that don't appear on the album: "Swordsman" and "Hellz Wind Staff". Most fans believe that this wasn't a production error; rather the tracks were intentionally put there to confuse listeners. The 11th track, Unexplained, is often erroneously listed as Swordsman on websites and other sources.
The album is also known for its distinctive cover, designed by DC comic artist Klaus Jansen.

I cannot count how many times I've listened to Liquid Swords. Easily one of my top ten favorite cd's ever.Last edited by MetalVomit; 10-20-2006, 04:27 PM.
