RZA (feat. Holocaust, Doc Doom, Ghostface Killah & Ms. Roxy) - Holocaust (Silkworm) Album: Bobby Digital In Stereo (1998) Gee Street/V2/BMG Records Produced by The RZA
I always loved this song an album was so underrated when it came out over 20years ago wheni was 20 or so but tonight I'm on magic shrooms an its even better then the first time listening lol
I remember I was 11 years old when this album came out, and when I heard this Holocaust verse, even at that age I knew it was something special, I was like my god who is this guy? 24 years later its still unreal
No doubt. I really would have loved to hear a more mature Doc Doom on these John Frusciante-produced joints. After another decade of hardbody verses, that is... RIP champ!
And this is where Westside Gunn got his Cadence from Ghostface where he doesn’t exactly copy his style but Embraces it and still makes his own style and flow with Ghost’s cadence
If you had to compact all the information and all of the current worldly events in 1 song, this is what you come up with. Most highly intelligent people will understand what I mean.
Listening to this over and over, I’m starting to think that RZA’s mic was not in check so that’s why he repeated his first verse, it’s so raw that they kept it in the song
i hear you dog you dont know how many times since then ive searched tirelessly for more holocaust music come to find out he changed is name :-/ dude was a mastermind for that verse. and after he became warcloud for some reason he wasnt spittin anythinng nearly as nasty as that verse. but definitely that to me was one of the best lyrical verses ive heard in hiphop hands down.
best verse ever... I'm sorry but the fact that it never breaks from concept is what makes the flow enhanced, and that concept is abstract yet defined... Decks verse is has flow and concept but it doesn't bring demons to earth like they belong there ya know what I'm sayin?
@thomaswil8 Was that in an article somewhere? I would love to know where you heard that because, Honestly it seems Like it's implied but I don't know that I've ever heard. It acknowledged like that but... My instinct is like yeah of Of course he had to!
Îndeed! I've been searching for some more nasty verses too, to no avail.. Because you responded to my comment, i'm listening to this gem once more and again i'm astonished by his lyrical technique ... Definetely one of the best verses in Hip-hop together with Canibus' Poet Laureate and Lunar deluge! But that's on a whole other level. :D Peace
i can see why he isnt a wu member. its just some different shit. I love Holocaust's albums, but his shit is just too dark and too sick... it wouldnt fit
@@thebigmonstaandy6644 idk about him losing his voice, but I heard he lost his mind because of drugs, and you can definitely tell from his newer songs...
The fact millions of blacks died in the holocaust and is still claiming black lives with no mention is very revealing and mind-numbing. Weary eyes are tired.
You’re just a flicker to my inferno, we burn for eternal, Mc’s delight - popcorn, we poppin every curnel Jot us in your journal, we hot like a thermal Nuclear explosion, under my control of your country like the federal, enforcement, management, agency !
