...White House proposed a massive Medicare prescription-drug plan and then flat-out misrepresented the true costs (and quietly included a windfall for drug companies). Every bit of congressional vanity spending, every last tax cut, was approved. Reagan proved that "deficits don't matter," insisted Vice President Dick Cheney...

The compilation comes off as a soulless, unfocused mixtape, scraping the bottom of the underground rap barrel.Why does this release deserve the Wu-Tang logo? It isn’t the flat, lifeless tracks. Could it be the absurd (not Ghostface-nonsensical, just incoherent) lyrics, or the half-hearted Nation of Islam references?
