Regarded as one of the greatest Wu-Tang solo projects, Liquid Swords is a dark, cinematic masterpiece. Produced entirely by RZA, it features sharp, chess-inspired lyricism and eerie, soul-sampled beats. Reviews consistently rank it as one of the best hip-hop albums of the 90s for its cohesive atmosphere and high-level lyricism.
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.
