Entertainment WeeklyNov 21, 2012[The album] is full of claustrophobic, boom-bap and Far East mash-up pops. [26 Oct 2012, p.75]
-
Nov 8, 2012As a Wu-Tang project it is one of the most complete and consistent in the post-Supreme Clientele canon.... Iron Fists is also a compilation that wears its love of Asian cinema on its sleeve.
-
Dec 14, 2012The Man With the Iron Fist is not only the best soundtrack of the year, it's one of the year's best albums overall.
-
Nov 8, 2012The Man With the Iron Fists OST is a strong album and certainly the best Wu-affiliated product since Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... Pt. II, but it never strives to be awesome. And for a RZA project, that means it can't be great either.
-
Nov 8, 2012This soundtrack stands tall in the man's wide-reaching discography, offering fans a Wu-flavored vision of a world where both the damned and cursed still swagger.
-
Nov 8, 2012The soundtrack is not as evocatively cinematic as the Wu's greatest songs, but it's a tasty mixtape.
-
Dec 13, 2012There are missteps--Talib Kweli going through the motions on Get Your Way (Sex Is A Weapon), Ghostface's unfortunate pairing with Wiz Khalifa--but like the movie, the soundtrack is good, bombastic fun.
