Supreme Clientele Review
Overview
Releasing on February 8th, 2000, Wu-Tang Member "Ghostface Killah" released his second studio album, "Supreme Clientele". Ghostface still takes pride of the work he did back in '00, seeing as he mentions this album in his ethering of the now deceased rapper "Action Bronson". Here is my review to this, IMO, classic album
Track 1: Intro
The album's first song starts off with a retro sample of what seems to be from retro cartoons. Ghostface's debut album was named "Iron Man", thus connecting these two things
Production=N/A Rapper's Performance=N/A Enjoyment Level=N/A
Track 2: Nutmeg featuring RZA
The song starts out with a soulful, piano-filled sample which really have a place in my heart. Ghost starts off with the lines:
" Scientific, my hand kissed it
Robotic let's think optimistic "
The delivery on these first few lines really took me back when I first listened to it. Ghost spits with confidence, which is what every rapper should be doing, while also having an insane flow. The production is simple loop of a sample, which is easy shit for Ghost to kill so it's no surprise he bodied this shit. RZA comes onto the track spitting that dope shit:
"Incognito, fatal aikido blow, pop a needle
Dick a knock-knee ho, bust out her fetal
Nine inch long strong, Bobby pop the bitch thongs "
Lmao RZA a funny ass n***a. He matched Ghostface's ability on this and didn't fall behind his shadow. Great job by him
Production=8.5/10 Rapper's Performance=9.5/10 Enjoyment Level = 9/10
Track 3: One
The song starts of with a sample of a girl saying "one" repeatedly throughout the song, along with a simple drum loop and piano. Ghostface's wordplay is insane with lines like :
" On the dancefloor, makeover's free followed by gauze
Duncan Hines monument cakes, we never half-baked
Alaskan, sexcapade, push your new court dates
Trauma, hands is like candy canes, lay my balls on ice "
And
" Sunsplash, autograph blessing with your name slashed
Backdraft, four-pounders screaming with the pearly ash
Children fix the contrast as the sound clashes
Mrs. Dash, sprinkle with her icicle eyelash
Ask Cappa Pendergrass for backstage passes "
His mean flow only enhances this song's enjoyability, great song
Production=8/10 Rapper's Performance=9/10 Enjoyment Level = 9/10
Track 4: Saturday Nite
The production on this from beginning to end is fantastic. RZA and co’s production has been great throughout the tape
For a short track, Ghost spits that mean gun talk:
" You dealing with a lot of science, motherfucker we're watching you
Make me wanna lick shots at you
You disgust me, screwing me down, grab my gun
Go head bust me "
Short and sweet!
Production=8.5/10 Rapper’s Performance=8.5/10 Enjoyment Level = 9/10
