A Thing of note as one who myself has attempted for years:

The abrupt pitch change on the hook? That's because at the time the technology the Wu Elements (RZA, Tru Master, 4th Disciple, and Inspector Deck - production on Wu-Tang Forever was a group effort) worked with couldn't do portamento on samples! The part on the verse *had* to play out before the shift!

Nowadays we're spoiled. The bass on NY Drill is entirely because you can load a long 808 kick drum & slide it around like it's a 303.
