My man Thomas came through again and put together one hell of a sample compilation! If there’s one thing you gotta love about Ghostface, it’s his love and appreciation for soul music. I’ve been grooving to this set all night and I must say, it’s probably one of the best sample compilations to date as far as quality soul music. If you don’t believe me, check it out for yourself!

Released on January 25, 2000, Supreme Clientele is the second album from Wu-Tang member Ghostface Killah. Much like many of the later Wu-Tang albums, Supreme Clientele is not produced entirely by The RZA, who only did four tracks. Other lesser known producers contributed beats. However RZA did oversee the overall production and mixing of the songs and skits on the album, being listed as executive producer along with Ghostface. The album’s acclaim is notable considering that most of the Wu-Tang’s second solo releases were considered disappointments, while several critics consider Supreme Clientele to be superior to Ghostface’s debut Ironman.
