This one grabbed from the outset, an unexpected snatch of Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition played on an old modular synth followed by a sample from a king fu movie (which is pretty much de rigueur for anything related to the Wu Tang Clan). From this point on, the obvious samples are dialled down and the music is dark, downbeat and dangerous. The lyrics have a cheeky sense of humour though, with one typical dis being ‘Yo Momma don’t wear no drawers!’. I also enjoyed a lyrical riff on the song ‘I Will Survive’ and a surprisingly sweet and heartfelt love song called ‘All I Need’.
