The group of emcees pioneered by iNTeLL (son of U-God) and PXWER (son of Method Man).
Tearing into 2021 with formidable dexterous drive, 2nd Generation WU (composed of the sons of the Wu-Tang Clan) are releasing their new full length debut, HEREDITARY, today via Dock Street Records. The group of emcees pioneered by iNTeLL (son of U-God) and PXWER (son of Method Man) has crafted a record that honors the classic R&B-spliced samples and gritty flow of '90s Wu-Tang while blending it seamlessly with booming bass, trip-hop vibes, and the radical production of modern rap.
The 15 track tour de force kicks off with the trip-hop interlude of "ROYAL GENETICS" and immediately runs full speed into the classic, pulsing, Wu-Tang-styled samples and powerful flow of "WRONG ROUTE." "PXROKINESIS" suspends energy on the edge of a knife that falls like a heavy smoke when "WEAPON X" takes the reins. "GUESS WHO?" pairs old-school rap performance with experimental chopped and screwed production that tears through the track like a horror film bursting out the seams. Funky drums lead into the elegant samples of "SHOTGUN" bringing the record back to the classic sounding lo-fi samples and dynamic vocal energy of the 2nd Generation WU for "FROM THE ISLES OF STATEN" and "ALOTTA LOOT." "EXPRESS POWER" floats its graceful melodies into the dark groove of "BLOCKCHAIN." "MENTAL STIMULUS" resurges with energy before "GOLDN MEATHOOKS (ft. S.I.T.H, Inspectah Deck, & Prema777)," reminds us that, "Wu-Tang is for the children," ending on a saccharine sample that makes way for bonus tracks "7.O.D.," "WITH THIS (ft. Zeph Mcfly, S.I.T.H & Prema777)," and "OFF THE CONTACT (ft. CORE)".
