I listened to Enter the Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers yesterday (for the 1,000th time). It really never gets old. The only comparable rap album in terms of raw, unbridled energy is Onyx's Bacdafucup, but other than Sticky Fingaz (and not even him always), the lyrics are much weaker. I think that's what makes GZA stand out, because he's the only one who seems like he's not rapping for his life.

It's a great album, but I think there were two missteps:

1. Two versions of "7th Chamber" is highly unnecessary.
2. "Tearz" just doesn't compare to the other two slow tracks.
