Reissue 180g

Questo album è ampiamente considerato come una delle uscite più forti e sottovalutate di un affiliato del Wu-Tang Clan, ed è facile capire il perché una volta ascoltate le sue 18 tracce dinamiche. Killer Bee incarna lo spirito grezzo dei Wu aggiungendo il suo caratteristico sapore grintoso a Il colpo del secolo. Brilla sia quando sputa da solo in pezzi straordinari come "Shine", "Street Life" e la title track, sia quando è affiancato da pesi massimi del rap come Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, U-God, Havoc e Masta Killah e altri. Rae in realtà offre due performance ospiti straordinarie in "Az the World Turns" e "Spring Water". La formazione della produzione è altrettanto seria, e vanta crediti di artisti del calibro di RZA, DJ Muggs, Havoc, 4th Disciple e Carlos "Six July" Broady, che ha prodotto 10 brani, tra gli altri. Che tu sia stato lì il primo giorno, o che tu abbia iniziato ad immergerti nella vasta discografia dei Wu solo di recente, o da qualche parte nel mezzo, difficilmente troverai una rappresentazione del loro suono migliore di Heist of the Century. "Heist of the Century continua innegabilmente sulla scia del suono surreale e orchestrale che ha marchiato il Wu-Tang Clan come uno dei gruppi hip-hop più rivoluzionari del decennio."-MTV
