To tell you how high the standard of hip hop was in the 90s and how low it has fallen; when The Pillage came out, it received mixed reviews. This album will slay 99% of today's counterfeit out there.

Addiction to underground hip-hop, when I was in my teens.I remember we walked 15km to Nima( Hardcore slum) in the central part of the city Accra,Ghana Just for Wu-Tang LP's and cassettes.

Its crazy how many people come back to this everyday... this song is masterpiece!!!!

I dig the homage to John Woo's "The Killer" in that video. They had budget for their videos back in the 90's, they made art and literally mini-movies. The track is classic anyway.

Brooklyn bound wit da sound, hoping turnstyles!!!! real NY shit boi!!! this is one of da illest tracks ever...RIP hiphop this one of da greats! Never to be seen again, pour some licks on da earth in memory.

At the age of 32 I started to listen rap again after about 3-4 years break. But this time I’ve started from scratch started with Dj Kool Herc to understand better this great genre:) And I’m stuck with Wu Tang. Thats all I’m listening for about 10 months. I’ve gave enough time for each album to get the essence :) I’ve started with Enter the Wu and listened all albums in chronological order including every solo album (except Words from the Genious but it’s on my list). I’ve told all this to tell that how I was surprised when listening The Pillage. It might be the most underrated solo project. It is in the Top 5 solo Wu albums imo and this song is a masterpiece.

love this classic wu banga..The look on Cappa face at the end is priceless like "This nigga don't know im bout to buss him" lol

Almost 2020, back to this masterpiece. Love it!

Wu been dope dis my favorite cap song

The Pillage, so fukin underrated

Cap is natural born musical talent

Always loved Cappadonna,but the more I listen to this album in later years this shit has aged like fine wine! Cappa's lyrics are so far ahead a lot of people couldn't understand it when it first came out. Glad I wasn't one of em and was able to appreciate this wordplay from day 1!🎤

Very underrated. When he came out I'm confident the best rappers paid attention. Definitely top 20 with the flow and swag

I've been waiting 20 years for the sequel! When you get done watching this video you realize that it is more entertaining than most full length movies out today.

Put this song and video in a time capsule. 100 years from now when it's opened, they'll know what rap music was. This song is a gem.

Really? That would be awesome, but I always assumed it was because a lot of the Sopranos cast already worked for HBO and just likely shared the same talent agency. An example would be the HBO Gotti movie that was about a year before Sopranos and had most of the cast in it... Big Puss, Tony Sirico, Uncle June, etc.
