"Don't forget us when y'all blow!"

where was I for this one?

Good god almighty!!! Listen to those monster horns on El Michels Affair backed live performance of "Criminology". Gza utterly murders his verse. But the Wu's banter at the end of the track alone is worth checkin out, right up there with the "Yo hol up Meth! Where my Killah tape at!?" times of old. But seriously, how is U God gonna go and beg folks "don't forget us when y'all blow"? All of a sudden, U God's appearance in the "Tiumph" video, on some apocalyptic vampire shit hangin from a tree and spittin his verse in hell, just doesn't do it for me anymore.

Speaking of El Michels, highly recommend the brooknam funk revivalists' full length "Sounding Out the City". They've also recently released some vinyl where they interpret, yet again, old Wu classics like "C.R.E.A.M." sans verses.


And I guess Okayplayer does have more to offer than just The Boondocks strips. Came across this on the boards: D'angelo rarities (Voodoo outtakes and rare live covers).


How's that for nostalgia?
