The Last Shall Be First (Sunz of Man, 1998)

I was really looking forward to this, but there wasn't much to grab onto lyrically or rhythmically for me.  I get the sense that Killah Priest is these guys' Killa Sin, and his degree of absence is sorely felt a la Fear, Love & War.  The best songs are almost invariably the ones that involve founding members of Wu Tang.

Choice cuts: Natural High, Shining Star, Collaboration '98
