“Cash rules everything around me, cream get the money dollar dollar bill ya’lllll…”
If you knew no other line in the song, you knew the hook word for word and rapped along with Method Man like you wrote the hook yourself. This flashback Friday is dedicated to none other than hip hop mogul group Wu-Tang Clan. Their 1993 hit, “C.R.E.A.M.” appeared on their Enter the Wu-Tang: 36 Chamber album produced by the group’s leader RZA. Ghostface Killah, Method Man, RZA, Raekwon, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, GZA, Masta Killa, Inspectah Deck, U-God, & Cappadonna collectively changed the rap game as a group and because of this their success spiraled even individually. Take a trip back to the 90s and check out the visual for”C.R.E.A.M.” above.
You can still get your tickets to see Wu-Tang Clan, along with Lil Kim, Dom Kennedy, the Diplomats, Bone Thugs & Harmony and Curren$y LIVE at the Barclays Center on September 20 here.
