Album
The Last Shall Be First is the debut album of hip hop group Sunz of Man issued in 1998 on BMG Records. The album got to No. 20 on the Billboard 200 chart and No. 7 on the Billboard Top R&BHip-Hop Albums chart. The Last Shall Be First features guest artists such as Raekwon, Earth, Wind & Fire, Method Man and Ol' Dirty Bastard. Production on the album was handled by the Wu-Elements RZA, True Master and 4th Disciple with additional contributions coming from Supreme Kourt and Wyclef Jean. To the ever-expanding Wu-Tang family comes the Sunz of Man, comprised of Hell Razah, 60 Second Assassin, Prodigal Sunn, and Killah Priest, the only member with a full-fledged solo career. Like many latter-day Wu projects, there's a certain familiarity about the album that works against it - though each member has his own distinct lyrical style, the music itself becomes a little similar.
