Watching this as a 19 year old, everyone in this video is probably in their mid 20’s, today they’re all in their 50’s, it really makes me realize how fast life moves, and how precious time is, time is never on our side and its the only thing we can’t get back

RZA’s run from 93-97 as a producer is the best of all time in my opinion. The first Wu album, followed by Meth, then in 1995 alone he does 3 classics with Ol’ Dirty, Raekwon and GZA. Ghostface in 96 and Wu Tang Forever in 97. Those were all classics at the time and they still hold up to this day.

A time before the internet, social media and cell phones came along to kill real human experience....and in turn killed real music that came from the heart and not just treated like another accessory. That's how I see today's music, it's like downloading the latest app lol
