90s Jams #42: Wu-Tang Clan "Triumph" (1997)

Nine killer verses and no chorus. Fuck pop. This is the way pure hiphop is done. Between "Hypnotize" and "Triumph," 1997 turned into a huge year for the first singles off incredible 2nd albums.. The enormity of RZA's beat sounds like Wu-Tang kicking off their end-of-the-world concert with the heavens opening up behind them. There's at least 40 classic lines in this song. Can you spot them all?
