Even if you’ve committed every detail of the Shaolin-via-Staten-Island supergroup’s catalogue to memory, this compilation showcases a little something extra alongside their best-known work. “Protect Ya Neck (Bloody Version)” offers an unedited boisterous take on the original, and “Method Man (Skunk Mix)” is a wilder, wavier mix. From the timelessly eerie classics of 36 Chambers to lesser-known loosies like the raspy, furious “Diesel”, the Wu still ain’t nothing to … you know the rest.
