The day after Wu-Tang Clan released their new single “Ruckus In B Minor” from their upcoming A Better Tomorrow album, producer Just Blaze took to Twitter to criticize one aspect of the song’s engineering.
Asking who aligned the track’s vocals, Just Blaze pointed out that the raps are “all over the place.”
Last month, HipHopDX spoke with members from the group and reported updates from a press conference about their next album. Speaking specifically about “Ruckus In B Minor,” RZA detailed collaborating with Rick Rubin on the song’s mix.
“When you’re making an album, you get stuck sometimes because you’re listening to the music over and over,” RZA said. “There’s a song that I feel really captures the essence of our vibe right now called ‘Ruckus In B Minor.’ Codename is ‘Still #1.’ I played with that song for like a month and couldn’t really find that proper mix. I called up Rick Rubin and I was like, ‘Yo, you’ve been making classic Hip Hop from the early days as well as Rock and Alternative. Can you take this song and find a great mix for it?’ I sent it to him. When he got it he was like ‘Cool. Sounds great. Do you got any ODB that I can add to it?’ I did dig through some crates and we’ll see how that formula comes out.”
