RZA as Bobby Digital in Stereo [Explicit Lyrics]

Amazon.com
Unlike their predecessors, who each released about an album a year, Master P and the Wu-Tang Clan dominated the mid to late 1990s with a hailstorm of discs that saturated the rap marketplace. RZA, the Wu's über-producer, added to the storm with Bobby Digital in Stereo, the soundtrack for a straight-to-video film directed, produced, and written by RZA under the alter ego Bobby Digital. Whether he's able to compete with Master P on the cinematic front remains to be seen, but the project surely confirms RZA's mastery of the production studio and of the hip-hop domain in general. Without sounding too threatening or gangsta, RZA--er, Digital--lays down street-lethal beats and rhythms that resonate with a futuristic cyberpunk theme. And while the songs are fairly free of melody, there are plenty of atmospheric keyboard noises, sound effects, and samples to keep things pumping. --Jon Wiederhorn

Spin
[RZA] gives his sci-fi concept the otherworldly music it deserves.... [But] Bobby Digital in Stereo eschews the Wu's Asian mysticism and concerns itself only with the lawlessness of the male power fantasy. Of course, the fact that Bobby Digital flows like steel shavings doesn't help matters.

Banga.......2007-04-26

This is not the typical Wu album. RZA experiments on this and it comes out wonderfully. From start to finish this is one of my favorite Wu Albums next to GZA's liquid Swords. From start to finish this is a great album.

What a load of tat.......2006-07-16

Sorry RZA, I have a lot of respect for you and what you've done, but I've never heard such a confused artificial sounding mess of an album. The rapping is non-existent meaningless and the production is rushed. If you are thinking of buying this album then don't you are wasting your money. In fact if you want it I'll give it to you. Bobby you should take some advise from ghostface, stay true, stay true.

What the hell is with these spotlight reviews?.......2006-04-30

Uh, these spotlight reviews suck. 2 stars?! Why is that a spotlight review? Who chooses these.. anyways. This is one of the BEST CDs ever dropped by Wu-tang (or anyone on the east coast for that matter). RZA's flows on this CD are ABSOLUTELY amazing. As with all RZA music, it is very random, and sure, there are a bunch of tracks that might catch you off guard, and make you say "What the F8@$?" But all around, when you get an ear for the lyrics and the production which is the mastery of RZA, you will acknolwedge this CD as being completely amazing.

Near a master piece.......2006-01-26

The RZA is one of the best rappers in the world. Like his name, his words cut you like a razor. No one can match his flow, its amazing the way he can deliver a rap. As a plus, RZA has some of the best unknown rappers on his cds; His beats are awesome. There are some dull spots on the cd, but its few and far between. The Wu and RZA should get more credit for what they do. I own everything RZA touchs, just because its always worth it. Unlike most rappers in todays industry. Im so sick of turning on Mtv, and seeing fake rappers millions of dollars for generic rap tunes. RZA, The Wu, and Wu family will always be better then anything rap will ever produce.

RZA - As Bobby Digital In Stereo.......2005-12-26

Well here it is 1998 and we get a first SOLO album by the RZA. He is already known for being as one of the best Hip Hop producers so now people are wanting to see what sort of album he could cook up. Well this one some people were like "What kinda stuff is this"? It sounded different. RZA was experimenting with different production methods. This doesnt sound like the original Wu-Tang group stuff your used to hearing so notice that, but let me break it down for you.

Lyrics, wow this is where you get to really see RZA shine though. His lyrics are SO on point its crazy! He drops straight knowledge all the way through the album. A couple funny tracks like " Kiss Of A Black Widow" and "Domestic Violence" but even those songs are on point! Lyrically, RZA would outshine anyone who spit on th e album. Before hearing his solo stuff, if you ever said "RZA is alright", nah check this album out then you will see how good his lyrics can really be. Every single track he drops ILL rhymes. Lyrically, this album is hott as f*ck.

Production, heres the crazy stuff. He experimented with a different production method. Not the normal types of beats he usually cooks up for other Wu member or group sh**. What is amazing, is how great RZA can make a song and album be. He can give a album a CERTAIN vibe ALL THE WAY THROUGH! Its crazy! This album has a certain vibe all the way through, I cant tell you which "sort" of vibe because its too hard to think of one, but there is one trust me. The beats on this album are off the hook though. They are different and unique, so check this album out NOW!

This album is different, but the lyrics are hott, production is hott and thats all you need for a good album right. Classic RZA material right here. Probably his best solo effort out. And all of the appearances by different emcees they all drop knowledge and hott rhymes.

AHEAD OF IT'S TIME!!!!!!!

The Best Album Ever.......2001-08-30

This is seriously the best album I have ever heard. The beats and lyrics are great. Only RZA can do both so well.

A Chillout Album.......2000-06-25

anywhere i'm sitting,i could listen to this album....it's soothing with a lot of meaning to what life is like.....definitely a good buy

Digital Mastermind.......2000-02-11

I've been a Wu fan since about '93 when they released their first album Enter the 36 Chambers, RZA is a hip-hop mastermind, no doubt that he comes up the phatest beats and lyrics in the hip-hop music industry. There is no such thing as an album produced by RZA that is not worth buying. He gets better and better, always something new, gotta love him. This Bobby Digital album is by far one of the best albums from Wu. Buy it, you'll love it..Wu-Tang Clan Forever! :-)
