Known as the "Purple Tape," this solo debut from Raekwon (featuring Ghostface Killah) is the gold standard for "mafioso rap." Reviews celebrate its cinematic storytelling and RZA's peak gritty production. It transformed the landscape of 90s hip-hop and remains one of the most influential Wu-Tang solo projects ever released.
