I can’t tell you who my favorite member of Wu is. All I can say is that once “Bring the Ruckus” dropped, I knew in my gut that rap music was about to change again and these dudes were making it happen. I’m not gonna wax too philosophical about it. We rolled weed up, sat down, popped the tape in, and pressed play. This was before the Internet mattered to music and the note attached said something like, “I know you guys will run your mouths about how good this is so here you go.” Word of mouth, in other words.

Bring Da Ruckusīefore Wu-Tang dropped their album, me and Big Jus got a copy of the tape directly from the guys at Loud Records. I can literally smell the blunt smoke on 2nd Avenue whenever I think of Enter The Wu Tang (36 Chambers).

It was always the stuff that MTV seemed too scared to get behind. They were never on MTV, but they were always on “The Box – Music Television You Control.” Thank god for that 900# you could call to request a video. I also completely associate Wu-Tang with The Box. Seriously, I think there was at least six months where kung-fu movies outsold porno on 42nd Street. All of the sudden you had all these white prep-school nerds taking an interest in the Shaw Brothers. There were a few spots where you could buy bootleg VHS tapes of old kung-fu movies and I know business for those guys totally skyrocketed after the record came out. Jake Fogelnest, writer, comedian, and radio personalityĮnter The Wu Tang (36 Chambers) really takes me back to a specific time in New York City. How could there by this many rappers in a crew? How could so many of them be so original and amazing? How could a group concept be any cooler? How could something this exotic come from just over that nearby bridge? Damn it, Mom! Why did you forbid me from visiting the island of Shaolin?!!! I’d always wondered what odd and dangerous creatures were roaming around over there. “Nothing this family wants is in Staten Island.” My Mom and I grew up in New Jersey.
