Wu-Tang Clan – Wu-Tang Forever (27 songs, double album, 1997)


About This Music Release

Wu-Tang Forever is a 27-song double album by the legendary Wu-Tang Clan (RZA, GZA, Method Man, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Inspectah Deck, U-God, Masta Killa, and Ol' Dirty Bastard, with heavy contributions from affiliate Cappadonna). It was released on Jun. 3, 1997 by Loud Records / RCA.

Following the groundbreaking Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) and a string of iconic solo albums, this ambitious follow-up solidified the Clan's dominance in hip-hop. Primarily produced by RZA (with input from protégés like 4th Disciple and True Master), it features epic storytelling, kung-fu samples, dense lyricism, and guest spots from Tekitha and others. Debuting at #1 on the Billboard 200 (selling 612,000 first week) and certified 4× Platinum, it's praised for tracks like the chorus-less "Triumph" but sometimes critiqued for its length.
