Reviews
Did this EU version also get the limited autograph (shallah Raekwon) like it's US alternative?- The first album I ever had was a dubbed tape of 36 chambers back in like 1994, I was 13yo and I never heard anything like it.I would rewind Torture like 100 times cause it was the coolest thing to hear these guys ranting I'll fucking sew ya eyelids closed and feed ya nothing but sleeping pills , you know right before Method Man.I got my Dad to buy me Liquid Swords, Iron Man, Tical and of corse Cuban Linx, Wu was the soundtrack to my life, no matter what I was doing Wu was playing in the background. Wu Tang had a huge impact on my life and I can't thank them enough
