"RZA did not produce this album. Instead, longtime associate DJ Mathematics is left to shepherd a haphazard assortment of what are essentially Wu solo joints into a cluttered compilation gilded into the appearance of a Wu-Tang Clan album proper. Not all is lost. Mathematics is an able producer, and brings some fine beatcraft to the table, and, naturally, it's still nice to hear your favorite Wu personalities, even when they all seem to know the stakes are decidedly low".
