Tape 28 years later The album starts off strong with the track’s harsh sound and vivid narration, and it doesn’t let up for the course of its 70 minutes. “Criminology,” which has a melancholic tempo and highlights Raekwon’s lyrical skill, is one of the album’s notable tracks from the first half. The song depicts street life and the criminal underground in a realistic manner. Another outstanding song is “Incarcerated Scarfaces,” which has Raekwon and Ghostface Killah describing their criminal actions over a threatening beat. Additional standouts from this album’s legendary WuTang tracks include “Guillotine (Swordz),” “Glaciers of Ice,” and the epic “Wu-Gambinos.” Exclusively Made for Cuban Linx includes a number of skits that aid in connecting the album’s story.
