Enter the Wu-Tang is damn near a 10/10 rap album, I wish I could jam it for the first time again.
Looking forward to the journal!

When it comes to group albums I stopped after 8 Diagrams so the last two will be brand new to my ears and I've never really listened to any of the solo albums from start to finish. I've mostly heard a track or two from the solo stuff but not a full album.

Super excited to read your thoughts about the albums, DJ! Curious though, you did say you're going to be covering their solo albums - but are you planning to branch out into side projects at all? The two that come to mind off the dome are Gravediggaz Six Feet Deep (a side project of RZA) and the Blackout! albums (Method Man / Redman). If you don't end up covering them here, definitely check them out regardless at some point, some great material there!
If Enter the Wu-Tang isn't a 10/10, I hardly know what is. There's only 3 or 4 rap albums that I'd say are on the same level. At least in my opinion.

I didn't mention side projects in the initial post but of course I will be diving into those as well. I've listened to Blackout! and Blackout! 2 before but missed out on Gravediggaz. I'm going through it all. I figured it would be a nice lengthy project/journal to tackle since there is so much material to go over.
