SHELTERED WOMAN'S 1ST TIME HEARING WU TANG 🎵 C.R.E.A.M Reaction 

I wish hip-hop still sounded like this

Seriously cannot overstate how important RZA is, the instrumentals from the first 3 albums are so good. Every producer owes him.

People always talk about top rappers this and that BUT some folks don’t understand that producers are just as important. They’re even more important than rappers to me. RZA’s production is some of he best I’ve ever heard.

Raekwon’s verse is incredible, just tells his whole life story in 1 minute

The thing that was wild about Wu-Tang was they infused the "gangster rap" of the West Coast with the "hip-hop flow" of the East Coast before either Coast knew there was a rivalry. 36 Chambers is still one of the best HIP-HOP albums of all time.

The happiness in Lex's face ....just says it all for all of us who heard this some 30 years ago for the first time. ::: Classic Lex::: ::: Classic Killah Beez:::

Wu Tang is just one of those rap groups you can say yeah the WHOLE world LOVE them for real. They’ve had a major impact to music in general. Their music is very raw, grimey, and it is very influence by eastern culture like Shaolin, Martial arts and etc.

The sample is from: The Charmels-"As long as I've got You" Stax Records 1968 written by Isaac Hayes

DMX and Wu Tang are hip hop artists this metalhead can get behind! 👍

Lex's innocence to this music is funny. You guys are a trip. Great reaction!!

There should be a class or requirements for millennials to learn about culture and music from Wu-Tang to Nine Inch Nails. A Tribe Called Quest to Primus.

This is the greatest group / movement in hiphop history. "THE GODS ARE HERE"

Man I feel old when Lex says this is old school.😂 This came out my senior year of high school.

Wu tang is my childhood... I went to a ghostface killah concert when i was around 19-20 something .. Around there. And that is still one of the dopest concerts i been too.. I live in Norway so not alot of artist comes here. So that was pretty effing cool. Was a pretty small venue but people got turnt up! R. I. P ODB (Old Dirty Bastard )

Why is it that every song you guys listen to, from rap to metal, hits me right in my childhood. Yal are badass 🤘🤘🤘

Oh yes! More Wu-Tang! Method Man, Protect your neck, anything from the first album would be awesome. Here's me hoping for a marathon of Wu-Tang and Gojira

When I was a teenager, I bought weed from an older black dude a couple times. Once I went to his place and he was bumping Wu-Tang Forever, and he described it as black heavy metal lol. I understood him immediately bc I already knew Wu. It's gritty, honest and brash. Hiphop upside your head ish! ✌

This song is a classic. I'm 21 and first heard this song when I was 10. I still have it in my playlist

Love how these guys can flow about their life and all the hardships along the way! The ones that don’t understand will be the ones just bobbing their heads!!!!

Love this! I feel like Lex. Wu-Tang is a big hole in my rap library. That crew is so slick. Go! Go! Go!

This chick is a trip lol that “creaming someone” while using the gun fingers 🤣🤣 I feel like y’all convos at home gotta be hilarious. No way she doesn’t leave Breh speechless 3x a day. It’s almost too adorable for a grown person.

You heard Dollar Dollar Bill Yall...it was a hit song by Jimmy Spicer(R.I.P.) in 1980/81. Thats where that part of the hook is inspired by that song. The Wu Tang Clan are huge fans of Hip Hop which they grew up hearing especially after Studio Recorded Hip Hop Songs became the wave in the culture. Cash Rules Everything Is Around Me is an bacronym(as Talib Kweli would say). Meaning CREAM was already a slang word for money or getting paid, prior to them breaking it down to Cash Rules Everything Around Me. Raekwon, the 1st to rap on this song, says his cousin from Brooklynn coined the phrase, after an episode of the cartoon, Tom and Jerry. Method Mans close friend and fellow member of the Panty Raiders, Raida Ruckus, broke the term for money, Cream down into the (b)acronym. Cream also has the extended phrase, Cash Rules Everything Around Me, but it doesn't RULE ME.> This extended version is for those who believe, that the pursuit of material wealth justifies all and any action to obtain it. It's a reminder, that the song isn't a greenlight to just be foul, wicked and unprincipled in achieving capital. For what shall it profit a man, to gain the whole world, and lose his soul? Just adding on. What little I have, you are welcome to partake. PEACE.

You should do a live reaction to the whole album "Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)". One of the best albums ever made.

I love genuine Lex’s reaction was 😂

They created the term C.R.E.A.M as far as I know. In the 90s ppl started calling money Cream because of this song.

Shout out to Lex..you're reacting to this almost 30 year old song like we did as teens when it first came out in 93. 💯💯

Do More Wu-Tang, here are some suggestions 1. Can It Be All So Simple 2. Da Mystery Of Chessboxing 3. A Better Tomorrow 4. Triumph 5. Impossible

RZA is a master at his craft. He knew at a young age that there is some sh*t to sampling and perfect looping. He definitely paved the way to future generations of hip hop producers both underground and mainstream.

Meth made that hook up. C.R.E.A.M. You guys HAVE to HAVE to HAVE to do more WU. These guys will rock your brain with their lyricism. Brad, you would LOVE them LOL

You guys should really dive deep into wu tangs catalog

I would love to see you guys react to OutKast - ATLiens or Elevators

YES. This is my favorite Hip Hop album of all-time. I played the tape for 36 Chambers so much it was starting to sound distorted. This, in my opinion, is how Hip Hop is supposed to be. THE LYRIC (not the hook). Some of their tracks are nothing but verses, which I love. Also, it's so damn raw. Definitely explore every track on 36 Chambers. I recommend Da Mystery of Chessboxin' if you're looking for more Wu-Tang.

Wu-Tang Forever 🤘🏽

RIP OLD DIRTY BASTARD!! Gotta Deep Dive into that dudes music lol. And Im glad your checking out some Wu Tang Love to see it! Keep up the good work! And this song popularized C.R.E.A.M It may have been around before this song, but WU brought it to the masses

He dead ass serious and she’s bopping. Real talk.

Great post. Lex’s reaction was so cute, authentic, and appreciative of the art form. Makes me remember how we reacted back in the day to these classics.

One of the best groups of all time. RZA beats and production are so iconic. You can’t fail with a WU tune. 🔥🔥🔥

I'm wearing my Wu Tang shirt that says "Life of a shorty shouldn't be so rough" right now. :) Awesome song choice!

You rarely heard people talk about mental health in hip hop then. But, these dudes were masters at painting real pictures of life in 1990s NYC - or just hood life back then. And we all know depression is often a part of that. Got a chance to build with these guys for a day back then, and they were 100% the same in person as on record.

Wu Tang was spectacular. Damn, so much early to mid-90's hip-hop was spectacular.

If you go down the Wu Tang rabbit hole u will never get out. Pure gold ! 1 love to the gods !

Dude I listen to this after AGES. Found a music folder on my Pc named Best of Hip-Hop :D Had to check some1 listening to this classic for the first time.

I love girls like this: nerdy and girly. I dont like girls who try to be “thugged out” and glamourize being “savage”. She’s a keeper bro. Adorable

Lex got the vibe quick. Da Mystery of Chessboxing next!!

Legendary - That New York accent in perfect

One of the greatest tracks eve !!!

Loved these days,hanging out on the block smoking and drinking fortys listening to 90s nyc hip hop,timbos and hoodies.

Man this takes me back! Please do more from this album 36 chambers. Especially “Can it be all so simple” and “Protect ya neck”. ✌️

Damn nice, I hope you'll do more Wu Tang! Especially some Method Man stuff.

I've seen a lot of reactions to this track and Wu-Tang generally, and I gotta say, hands down, your reaction Lex is one of the most honest and purest reactions I've ever seen, love it!! Hope you get to do more Wu-Tang

Lex is always so excited 😊

Yes, that acronym DEFINITELY started with these boys

Wu Tang: Witty Unpredictable Talent and Natural Game Oh I miss the 90's!! SUUUUUUUUUUU👐

Methodman came up with the hook, 'cash rules everything around me' Cream is also a slang word for money. "Gotta make that cream"

If you really listen to the lyrics of "Mind Playing Tricks On Me" by The Ghetto Boyz, you'll realize that it's about mental health

New York hip hop hits different 🎉

I was late hearing this back in ‘99 it’s ok Lex lol you in it now :)

Raid Ruckus from here in Brooklyn came up with the acronym Cash Rules Everything Around Me(C.R.E.AM.)

Inspectah deck was the one on the second verse talking about being depressed. He's very underrated, and many say He's the illest one in the crew.

This is how it was, so hard to reach out.......but the Wu were courageous. all feeling

This is the single best title to a reaction video in the history of reactions... nay! Even the history of actions in the first place!

Check out their "Protect Ya Neck" and "Da Mystery Of Chessboxin", u'll love it)

This the sound of an era, imo why hh emerged and took over : great beats, deep lyrics, emotions coming from deep experiences.. Just raw greatness, and the RZA had a great part in it, up there with DJ Premier

Please check out: Wu Tang Clan - Protect ya Neck (bloody version) 7 of the 8 members of the clan are featured on this track

I love the ODB samples in the background, fucking amazing!

Please more wutang , they are the most original group of all time, 36 chambers is a masterpiece from front to back , I rate it #1 for best complete project in music history

THIS IS HIP HOP!

Yeah CREAM slang word came up from this song. It was sung by Method Man who got inspired from a letter that was written to him by one of his homies doing a jail scentence during the time. Meth is the man of hooks.

Wu Tang "Reunited" is mind blowing.

Protect Ya Neck and Da Mystery of Chessboxin are my favorites off of Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). Would love to hear you two react to those songs!

The "Dollar Bill Y'all" part was taking from Jimmy Spicer's "Money" 1983.

Oh they do have a song called "Ice Cream" Lex. Though thats about women different shades or flavors of women lol

I Went to the Wu-tang clan and rage against the machine concert back in the day. We tore that venue up.

36 Chambers = greatest debut album of all time

Also if you want to hear something else from Wu Tang, check out Ghost Face Killas song All that I got is You ft Mary J Blige. Its a good example of storytelling and the range of Wu Tang music. Kind of shines a light on some mental health issues

First time hearing Wu-Tang! Have you been living under a rock? Presidents come and go but Wu-Tang is forever!

Lex never heard C.R.E.A.M?!?! Wowzers... I lovve your channel, sometimes wonder what music you HAVE heard before! :)

Lex's reactions to these classic songs are just wonderful.

"SHELTERED WOMAN'S 1ST TIME HEARING WU TANG" ~ Sheesh thats tough lol!

CREAM always referred to money before this. But making up the phrase was the WU or NYC.

I was 9 when Enter the Wu tang came out....I loved this group ever since!!!

Wu-Tang Clan are one of the GOAT rap groups. Their debut album is of of the best rap albums ever. Don't think they ever got the credit they deserved in my opinion.

Raekwon also got a song called Ice Cream too. That's 🔥 too. Yall should check that out too.

This song dropped when I was 5 and has been in my life ever since 💯💯💯

Mental health is a stigma in the Irish, German, Hispanic, Italian, and so on communities as well.

Their series is pretty good also. Shows how they came about..

Wow! Talk about nostalgia ‼️🤘🔥🎶🎵❤ This is the rap/hip hop I miss so much! P.S., Yes, this is where C.R.E.A.M. originated from.

Why you do Lex like that "sheltered woman" smdh 🤣🤣🤣

Nas, Wu Tang, NWA, Biggie, Tupac, Bus Driver god i miss 90's and early 2000's hip hop

One of the best song in 90s hip hop

Wu Tang - Can It Be All So Simple, is a masterpiece!

Her excitement is contagious welcome WU TANG FOREVER

Commenting early,,,I'm in my early 50s lol...and I'm a metal head nerd..I remember this song and the video lol...WTC.🤘🍍🇺🇲🤓

These guys are from my hometown of Staten Island N.Y. I grew up on them....They were different because they were self promoting in a Time that social media didn't exist......they changed the game. And you want to see a self made video check out Protect Yo neck.

Sorry to comment 3 times but this is from my neck of the woods - Check out GZA Liquid Swords or BIBLE next, 1995, too good.

I see wu tang, I click like then watch

Triumph, Protect ya Neck., Tearz., cheers from Uruguay

Real hiphop from the streets..RZA came from another planet.. landed his ufo and brought his wu tang friends and chocked out hiphop with a triangle choke

It came from wu tang, listen to Talib interview RaeKwon, he tells the story about a friend or a cousin that use to call money cream and Meth or someone in the group came up with the acronym when making this song.

Another classic old school song. Geto boys- minds playing tricks on me. Also deals with mental health
