GrandMasters, a collaboration between the GZA/Genius of the Wu-Tang Clan and DJ Muggs of Cypress Hill, is a 12 track, hip-hop album, released October 25, 2005 on the Angeles Records imprint.
Upon release the album was met with rave reviews from both fans and critics, and is hailed on several noteworthy lists as the album of the year. This album features a GZA more into intricate story telling, and scene painting more so than the other albums and displays his increased ability to effortlessly depict detailed scenarios, though fans were known to complain at his increasingly lackluster, almost lazy delievery. Thematically, the album is an homage to chess and features appearances from Wu-Tang Clan members RZA, Raekwon, Masta Killa and by Prodigal Sunn, as well as Sen Dog from Cypress Hill.
