Title: 36 Chambers vs. Only Built 4 Cuban Linx...
Post by: ImmortalOne on March 17, 2002, 02:17:36 PM
Which of these Wu classics is better?? Ive alwayz considered 36 Chambers to be the best Wu related album, but after careful analysis and consideration, Cuban Linx MIGHT be the better album. 36 Chambers is more influential, but not by much. Lyrically, the two albums are equal. Production-wise, Cuban Linx is HANDS DOWN better. This is, in my opinion, one of the top 5 greatest albums ever when it comes to production. It is RZA's musical masterpiece, and I think he outdid himself on this album. 36 Chambers, Liquid Swords, Ironman, and Wu Forever all have SICK production, but Cuban Linx is just on another fucking level. Plus, Cuban Linx is a "cinematic" album, which really enhances how great it really is. Its like watching a movie...........

So, I think Cuban Linx has replaced 36 Chambers as the best Wu album ever in my opinion. But ill let yall call it. Holla back.....

The production on Cuban Linx is extremly dope. It's got some of the best Wu beats ever and the cinematic atmosphere is just perfect. Plus Rae & Ghost lyrically are 2 of my favorite Wu members so Cuban Linx is way better.

I have to say 36 Chambers...I just like the overall feel of that album and whole Clan rapping. Cuban Linx is amazing and is the second best 'Wu related album' and I have to say the production is better but overall its not as good. Still in my top 10 eastcoast CDs of all time.

Both are great albums, but what can I say? Enter the wu tang is my favorite rap album of all time. It has more replay value than Cuban Linx imo (not saying the replay value of Cuban Linx is bad).

Personally I would put 36 chambers over cuban linx because its more raw and grimy and I like the rapping on that album a lot too, but the production was better and sharper on cuban linx.

I'm going with Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)
I wouldn't say Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... has better production "hands down", they (along with Liquid Swords) are pretty much equal and it's just pretty much prefrence on which one you like better.

Cuban Lynx is a more artfull cinematic experience and 36 chambers straight choppin heads.


Chessboxing, Cream, Wu Gambinos..between them full of classic songs.

But i gotta give it to 36 chambers coz thats 9 hungry niggas on the attack ove grimy and soulful original hip hop beats.

36 Chambers.. but only just. Cuban Linx if a fuckin heavy album but its a bit TOO long. 36 Chambers covers everything you wanna hear in just the right amount of time.. but still, Cuban Linx is a musical masterpiece.

I didn't really like Only Built For Cuban Linx. 36 Chambers is easily better to me.
