Insightful stuff, mixed in with a heavy dose of 5%er ideology.

Great read from beginning to end. RZA shares true wisdom from experiences growing up in Brownsville, five-percent nation teachings, starting the Wu-Tang Clan, and studying taoism.

This is a must read for any Wu Tang fan and even any hip hop fan. So many artist benefited so much by being The Wus contemporaries. Rza really breaks down almost every little thing that makes the clan the clan. From lyrics of songs with explanation to the ultimate Wu slang dictionary. This is simply a must have. I also love how The Rza breaks down the science of numbers and how important that has been to the clan over the years. The book also includes interesting biographies on all members of the clan and Capadonna. Interesting behind the scene stories and Rza explaining how the clan was formed made this book impossible to put down. I have read at least three times from cover to cover and plan on doing it again very shortly. We all can learn so much from the Rza and I for one plan on learning it all. This book will also help you to understand that their is nothing more important than learning and education. Knowledge is one of the most important aspect to all Wu Tang. I hear that The Rza is working on a second version of The Wu Tang Manual and I am waiting very anxiously to get my hands on it. WU TANG FOR EVER MOTHER F**KERS!!!!!!!… (more)
