This came up on the shuffle today. The song itself, while far from their best, isn't that bad. It's got a good rhythm; and Meth and em do the thing over the track. The video though...it's just bad.
- The corny elevator scene and dialogue.
- The idea of Wu-Tang time traveling to -- of all places -- some sort of Jurassic Era.
- Dinosaurs!?
- The re-worked nicknames (Bobby Boulders, Lex Rockhead)
- Rappers walking around with Bam Bam clubs.
The swordplay at the end was fun, but who ok'd this?
Has a highly respected group ever dropped a video as corny as this before? I may have to table this at the T.R.O.Y. forum.

I'm probably throwing myself under the bus here but whatever, I'm a big The W fan and I've never really understood the hatred for it outside of overemotional wu-stans whinging over all the outside influence.
Its patchy and theres way too much Masta Killa but Careful (Click, Click) (which has a great video imo), I Cant Go To Sleep and Hollow Bones are as good as anything off of Ghostface's post-Supreme Clientele albums (except for maybe Biscuits, The Forest and The Sun) and Chamber Music, Clap, Let My N***as Live, Jah World and even Gravel Pit are pretty great too. I like a few songs off Iron Flag too but I'm not even gonna try and argue that one.

Battle : the dinosaur in this vs. the dinosaurs in The Tree Of Life?
Yeah, The W is a solid album. A lot of good tracks on there. (which you've already listed)
I never made it to Iron Flag though. I may give it a listen at some point, to satisfy some curiosity.

The Tree of Life is one of the first things that came to mind while watching this video.
