In his less than enthusiastic review of the show, LA Weekly's Ben Westhoff notes that it suffered from the absence of Raekwon and Ghostface, who were replaced by Cappadonna and Streetlife. Granted, Rae and Ghost are the two best rappers of the group, making this a massive downgrade. On the other hand, RZA, GZA, U-God, Method Man, Masta Killa and the always underrated Inspectah Deck were all present and accounted for, and Cappadonna, despite more success as a cab driver than as a rapper these days, will always be able to claim his verse on "Winter Warz" as one of the best of all time. So put that in your blunt and smoke it, Ben Westhoff.
