apollotics's Album Review for Tical

Method Man is the originator
Rza needs a standing ovation for producing this masterpiece. From the first track, you are sent in Method Man's world and he won't let you out of it. 13 tracks of pure Wu-Tang hits which are classics within itself.

1. Tical - This track is mindblowing. I can't say nothing else. When I first bought this album, I replayed this track six times before going to track 2. This track gets 5 stars and I'm tempted to scratch in some more points too, but since it's a 5 star system, I'm stuck.

2. Biscuits - This track has alot of undertones and a bass line that just won't quit. It's on the same lines as the first track and it blends so well that you just don't know when the first track ends and Biscuits begin. Both are awesome and gets 5 stars.

3. Bring The Pain - The main reason why I bought the album. You gotta remember that video. 30 ignant fools on a bus acting stupid and Method with those cataract contacts. The video has no half-naked women, no fancy cars, no glitter, just straight mayhem. Awesome and 5 stars.

4. All I Need - They made 3 versions of this song, one has more of Mary J, one is a remix, and the album. Guess which one was the worst, yes the album one. But it's aiight once you listen to it over and over again. 3 stars for replay value alone.

5. What The Blood Clot - Rza and Meth acts crazy in this one. They give shout-outs on the fifth track? Yes, but it's tight though. 4 1/2 stars for a tight beat.

6. Meth Vs. Chef - Method Man with Raekwon the Chef. Who won? I dunno but they ripped it! 4 1/2 stars for the tag team action.

7. Sub Crazy - Now do you want bass? Do you really want bass? Be careful what you ask for, because you just go it. Sub Crazy is awesome and is guaranteed to tear up any car's stereo system. I once played this song on some 2,000 watt amps and it turned on other car's alarms. Method man kicks some wild out lyrics and is guaranteed to get 5 stars.

8. Release Yo' Delf - The first mediocre track on the CD. Method goes wild again, but the singing downgrades the song. I think she's trying too hard. 3 stars.

9. P.L.O Style - The intro of Streetlife, the up and coming member of Wu. He tag teams well with Meth and they freestyle the mess out of this song. 4 stars.

10. I Get My Thang In Action - An african drum in this one with a nasty bass line. Method shows off lyrically in this one and is a classic. 4 stars.

11. Mr. Sandman - Rza, Inspectah, Streetlife and some cat named Carlton Fisk flowed with Meth and took it to another level. Sounds like madness with a drum beat. Something that's guaranteed to get you charged up! 5 stars.

12. Stimulation - My third favorite song (next to Tical and Biscuits). The bass line changes at regular intervals and takes it to another level. Awesome lyrics and the beat is memorable. 5 stars!

13. Method Man (Remix)- Somebody tell me why you want to remix a good song? They should take note from the Notorious Big and remix tracks that are mediocre and make them better. If you have a hot song, why remix it? People love it the way it is. So most likely, the remix is never as good as the original. It's like a singer that tries to sing a classic. You can never be better than the original if it's timeless. So this track gets 3 stars for a failed attempt to perfect perfection.

Overall, this album is a stamp of the classic Wu!
