Hip-Hop 93-94: Wu Tang
October 22, 2009 – 7:13 pm
I’ve focused so far on the so-called “backpack” hip-hop, which is admittedy where my bread was buttered in 1993-94, but one group rose out of the Shoalin Slums in 1993 to show us that hip-hop with a bleaker, hard-edge can still carry innovative production and brilliant wordplay.
