RZA had it that long because he had a bunch of breaks.
This song, I remember writing to the beat a long time ago before we actually came out. Just trying to make some money and trying to eat. We’re out there, all black on trying to make dollars. So, yeah, when I think of this record it just automatically puts me back into ‘87/’88 where we were standing in front of the building. It gave me an opportunity to revisit the times where that cream meant that much to us. Raekwon: “‘C.R.E.A.M.’ did a lot for my career personally. Fuck all that shiny suit shit!’ That ain’t no take on Puff, a lot of niggas was wearing suits and shit man, but that ain’t us.” Then it was just grimy niggas who loved to see real shit, saying, ‘We riding with them Wu-Tang niggas. Not just dudes from Staten Island, but dudes from Brooklyn too because they had peoples in the group too. We were the only dudes from Staten Island doing it so everybody from Staten Island wanted us to win. At that time, when you’re coming out brand new and representing where you come from, everybody from that area wants you to win because they win. You don’t just put something on your body permanently unless it’s official. There’s a reason you got millions upon millions of fucking kids running around with Wu-Tang tattoos. He said ‘People Relying On Just Enough Cash To Survive.’ And he’s the one that came up with ‘Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth,’ the acronym for B.I.B.L.E. The best acronym for a word that I heard was ‘P.R.O.J.E.C.T.S.’ by Killah Priest. You can’t do shit like that unless you got a brain in your fucking head! You got to have some level of intelligence to do something like that. This is just showing and proving that we paid attention in class when we was kids. Something like that had never been done before as far as a hook or even a way of speaking. We would call money ‘cream’ so he took each letter and made a word out of it and killed it the way he did it. Raider Ruckus was so ill with the way he put the words together. We had words like ‘BIBWAM’ which meant, ‘Bitches Is Busted Without A Man’ and all this other crazy shit. We used to work at the Statue of Liberty and when we were coming home we used to come up with all these made-up words that were acronyms. The hook for that was done by my man Raider Ruckus. RZA was like, ‘Put a hook on this song’ and I put a hook on it. I wasn’t there when they recorded ‘C.R.E.A.M.’ I came in after the fact. Method Man: “‘C.R.E.A.M.’ was the one that really put us on the map if you wanna be technical. In an interview with Complex in 2011, Method Man and Raekwon spoke about “C.R.E.A.M.” (in different interviews): The track samples vocals and music from the 1967 song from the Charmels’ “As Long as I’ve Got You”. Smith), rapper Raekwon (Corey Woods), rapper and songwriter Ghostface Killah (Dennis Coles), Inspectah Deck (Jason Richard Hunter), U-God (Lamont Jody Hawkins) and Masta Killa (Jamel Irief). Grice), Ol’ Dirty Bastard (Russell Tyrone Jones), Method Man (Clifford M. “C.R.E.A.M” was written by the Wu-Tang Clan themselves, a New York rap group consisting of rapper-producer RZA (real name Robert Fitzgerald Diggs), rapper GZA (real name Gary E. The song is about how money is in charge of every individuals’ life and the unfairness and ridiculousness of capitalism. It has been coined by many as one of the “greatest hip-hop songs of all time”, despite its lack of commercial success. “C.R.E.A.M” (an acronym of “Cash Rules Everything Around Me”) is the third single from iconic American hip-hop group Wu-Tang Club’s debut album “Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)”, released in 1994.
