Is It Because I Have Hollow Bones?

Quick post here, as I've got about 6 hours to finish writing my thesis paper (procrastination what?)... But yes . Hollow Bones has always been one of my top favorite phenomenal Wu-Tang tracks, and if you know me, you know I really love the Wu. But for some reason, I never checked out the sample source (the entire track is basically a couple chopped loops from the same song). That is, until Ben threw me Syl Johnson's Is it Because I'm Black [phenomenal album] and I stumbled upon the title track - Is it Because I'm Black... jaw-dropping, eye-bugging, epileptic seizure style convulsions just kind of hit me and left me speechless for maybe 10 seconds... to be replaced with a big goofy rictus of a smile.

I'm going to send you my new environmental column.
Bees: they're not so killer. (in fact, they're dying off.) Do you think the Wu will mind my subject?
