Wu-Tang Clan - Yo, Is You Cheo? (Skit) Lyrics

Lyrics Yo, Is You Cheo? (Skit) - Wu-Tang Clan



The first time I finally got with Wu,
Nobody really even knew what they looked like with the exception of,
You know, that music video that I think
They made for ten dollars for, for Method Man.
But the problem was the business of Wu-Tang.
They missed the photoshoot.
The only photos they had, I guess, featured them in masks.
At the time, you know, this is pre-internet.
If you missed the photoshoot,
There was no way for a magazine to course correct.
The magazine came out but instead of these photos,
Everybody had a basic,
Not even like an illustration, but a caricature.
Raekwon the Chef,
There was an illustration of
Raekwon wearing, he's got like a chef hat.
Ol' Dirty Bastard is pictured with a blow up doll.
I didn't like 'em but the thing was was I
Completely understood the position that they were put in.
Without art we would have to kill the story.
I didn't think the illustrations reflected
The seriousness of what I had witnessed. '
Cause musically Wu-Tang was just off the charts.
I thought it looked corny.
Some stories turn out great and some stories don't turn out great.
This was the one I felt was only okay and um, you know, you move on.
It came out and nothing happened,
I didn't hear anything from the group.
First person that I see, Masta Killa walks up.
I didn't know him at the time.
And he says, "
Yo, is you Cheo?" And I said, "
Yeah." Bam, I get hit in the face.
He's right 'cross my left eye. "
That's just to let you know Wu-Tang Clan nothing to fuck with.
We come real with our shit.
We ain't no fuckin' cartoon characters."
