"That was the night everything changed..."

i don't think i'll ever stop loving Liquid Swords. i'm serious. i'm never not in the mood to listen to that album, especially the title song. it's the simplest beat, there's nothing fancy there, just the RZA and the GZA doin' it.

i remember when i was like 13 or 14 and worked with my brother at my dad's driving range and he'd drive me to work and he must've just gotten this album or something, because he played it constantly. and i remember thinking how bizarre all the spoken word intros to the songs were...and being mildly scared by the one that was on "Liquid Swords." it took a few more years for me to really appreciate the perfection of the album.

what i wouldn't do to have been able to see one of those shows where the entire album was performed.

siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.

wu-tang foreva, yo.
