How dangerous was the Wu Tang Clan?
Yes, the title is corny as Hell but I decided it fits my question. On another board someone said that there was a time at which the media/anyone in the rap game was told to not publicly mention the Wu Tang Clan. True? A lot of users over there said it was because they "ran the game". Well, I wasn't into rap back in '93 when the hit the mainstream, but how big were they? 36 Chambers is my favorite CD of all time, but damn, were they big enough then to "run the game"? I also heard that a writer made a joke comment about them in a magazine, and he was beat until he was incoherent (by some cronies of the Wu) and when he woke up he was told to "not mess with the Wu Tang Clan". Were they really that off the hook? I always wondered how much of a gang they were like. How true is this shit? Any information would be nice. Thanks.

only people i know that were saying Wu's name at that time was Nas and BIG...BIG was on the wrong side of Wu back then, Rae and Ghost didn't like duke...



they started the Nas vs. BIG shit for King of NY...


talking about BIG biting his album covers and shit...


apparently they felt Nas' shit...collabing with him and such...

i really don't know too much about how dangerous they were, i never really heard stories
and i was of age in 92-94


going to high school in Queens, i never really heard about Wu knockin •••••s off, but i don't think they ever rolled through Queens, most all of them are Staten Island cats as far as i know


there is a good chance that they were indeed "nothin to fuck with"

Yeah back in the day Wu was pretty powerful. I wouldn't say they ran hip hop but they did have alot of influence, especially in the east.

I've never heard anyone diss em, so that must mean something.
