“Twenty five years, right?”the 50 year old  great said. “Listen, I feel like Al Green right now, n****. It’s time we close that trilogy out.”

Taking a look back on the album, it is hailed as one of the benchmark albums in hip-hop history. The album has guest features from his Wu-Tang (@WuTangClan) brethren as well as an all-time great verse from Nas (@Nas) on “Verbal Intercourse“. The project boasts 18 songs and all were mixed, arranged, and produced by RZA (@RZA).
