Venom features 13 tracks with guest appearances by three fellow members of Wu-Tang: Method Man, Raekwon and Inspectah Deck. U-God also gets additional contributions from Scotty Wotty and Nomdiq. Production is handled by Large Professor, Lord Finesse and DJ Green Lantern, among others.

Large Pro + Lord Finesse? Tracklist is crazy!
Fuck ya can’t wait to hear a lot of this. Especially the Large Pro and Lors Finesse production.
Super excited. Wish more Wu members were featuring. Also No RZA anything tho?????
UGod and RZA arent seeing eye to eye these days. Which is why UGod didnt show up on The Saga Continues.
RZA Hollywood…but he worked hard to get there
Thats not why he wasnt on Saga. He was on the hood go bang remix and was meant to be on it but Math said it was a scheduling thing that he didnt make the album version
notice how they didn’t need him to make a decent album LMAO im happy he wasn’t on that album.
u god and rza been beefin since the W it’s no surprise to me.
u god and rza been beefin since the w
This classic Wu shit right here
Classic?!?!! lmao U-GOD ALWAYS been trash cut it out
If you a real head, Epicenter gives you that felling of Rawkus, Loud days , Real heads know what I’m talking about. Loud Records had
Wu tang, Krayzie Bone, Fat Joe, Pun, Dead Prez, 3-6 mafia, mobb deep, M.o.p shit was unreal back then.
Yeah Loud was the shit back in the day. Xzibit, THa Liks, CElla Dwellas, plus solo albums from Rae, GZA, and Dek. Golden Age.
think GZA was on Geffen
RAW!!
Oh plz…CUT THE MUSIC! U-God always been wack and the worst in the crew yall hate 2chainz but love when trash ass rappers like him from the past that yall didnt listen to makes a return
First of all how the fuck u going to compare u god to a piece of shit commercial rapper like 2chainz.
ummm cause 2 chainz raps better than u-god… (yeah i said it and if 2 chainz raps better than you… you trash lol)
U-God’s far from wack. Peep his verses on “Knuckleheadz”, “Triumph”, “Winter Warz”, “If It’s Alright” and “Semi-Automatic” and tell me he’s still wack. 2 Chainz is okay, but he’s never had any verses that match up to these.
his verse on triumph was terrible, his verse on winter warz was unnecessary, the verse on semi-automatic was terrible, even on the jumpoff his verse was hot dumpster juice (biiiiiiiiitch i’ll put my dick on your lips!) (wtf?!) so yeah he’s still wack… wanna hear u-god’s dopest verse… hit the sunz of man album or cappadonna’s super ninjaz. those 2 verses blow out each of those songs… not being a hater.. just being honest.
RAW!
Totally enjoyable, on track 5 currently!
Gritty grimy this is what NY was built on Wu man I miss that sound RIP Ol’Dirty
Peace to U-God. WU-TANG FOREVER.
