Editorial Review: Amazon.com: In 1993 the Wu-Tang Clan redefined hip-hop with their gritty debut Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). With the proliferation of a whole slew of questionable solo projects from group members Raekwon (Immobilarity) and RZA (Digital Bullet--huh?) to a recently slapped together Ol' Dirty Bastard greatest-hits compilation, everybody's fave rap group have been on autopilot. On Iron Flag, the rap assassins from Staten Island give you sharp reminders of what made them so brilliant. Knob twiddler extraordinaire RZA mishmashes obscure soul riffs and horn blasts on "Uzi (Pinky Ring)" and "Rules," upping the mixing-console ante. "Back in the Game" brilliantly utilizes the ubiquitous love croons of Ronald Isley over a sparse piano loop and scattered acoustic guitars, while Flavor Flav's guest rants on "Soul Power (Black Jungle)" take this one over the top. Sure there are a few toss-away tracks, like "Chrome Wheels," where the Clan lazily rip misogynist rhymes over an uninspiring Alexander O'Neal sample, but eclectic, low-bpm numbers like "Babies" more than make up for the crew's few shortcomings. Ol' Dirty Bastard, the only Wu banger who couldn't record on this album, is in some correctional facility smiling right now. --Dalton Higgins Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating: - 3.8 Stars! Not Classic Wu, But Still Good!When I first got into the Wu, I heard nothing but negative remarks on this album, so I steered clear of it. As time passed, and I found myself getting every Wu album there is, I eventually bought this and at first I almost regretted it, but after several spins my outlook on Iron Flag changed. It's a shame that everyone has to compare anything they put out to their classic albums. I can't stress this one enough - Wu Tang clearly wasn't trying to make their later albums like their earlier ones. They were in different time periods, different environments, and they were aiming to do different things. The two things this album get's criticized most for are; some of the chorus's and some of the production. My response is this ...

LP!! .. only two tracks that I dont personal FEEL 100% "Dashing" & "Chrome Wheels" ..but the beats are the only thing that bugg me...the lyrics are on point!!!... this is a CLASSIC HIP HOP ALBUM!!!! Rating: - Not they bestThis album was pretty solid. If you compare it to the early releases except for the W this is nothin at all. After a few listens it grew on me. I just feel the production could have been better, but since I listen more for mic skills thats the reason i enjoy this album. This album will appeal to diehard fans more. Rating: - They not stoppin!Peace Yo they deliever again the God going to keep this short yo get the Album my Brothers are Black and Proud can't beat that Nah Mean! Black Woman Mother of Civilization Peace Rating: - Didnt like it at first.....didn't like this album at first but I've been listening to it all the way through a few times over the last few days. First got it about a year ago so I was surprised to find myself liking it. Some of the lyrics aren't as good as some other Wu-Tang stuff but the whole thing is pretty tight. Most of the members shine throughout the album actually, especially GZA, Inspectah Deck, Method Man and U-God. Beats aren't typical Wu-Tang stuff but they're banging, some of them may have to grow on you though. I hated Chrome Wheels, Radioactive and Soul Power at first for example. Overall it probably has to grow on you, but its a really nice album. Top 5 songs: Uzi Radioactive Ya'll Been Warned ... Read More: |
