My Seeds Marry His Seeds

Wu-Tang Clan “Family Reunion”

Is this the most wholesome Wu-Tang song of all time? It must be. But the beautiful thing about this track is that the warmth and friendliness does not seem forced or awkward – this sounds like a bunch of guys in their 40s who are genuinely happy to see each other, and have put a lot of petty stuff behind them. It gets a little corny and maudlin – it’s starting to seem like there’s at least 15 Wu-related songs with a tribute to Ol Dirty Bastard at this point – but it’s sweet, and kinda interesting to hear how the scowls that you could hear through the tape on Enter the Wu-Tang have morphed into pleasant grins 20 years later.

Buy it from Bandcamp.
