Overview

"Triumph" is a song by American hip hop group Wu-Tang Clan, from their 1997 album Wu-Tang Forever. It was released as the lead single from the album in February 1997. The song does not have a chorus, instead, solely consisting of an intro and interlude by Ol' Dirty Bastard and verses from the other eight Wu-Tang members and associate (and future member) Cappadonna. It is the only Wu-Tang song featuring all members. The song received critical acclaim; Inspectah Deck's verse particularly praised as one of the greatest verses in hip hop of all time ("I bomb atomically, Socrates' philosophies and hypotheses / Can't define how I be dropping these mockeries / Lyrically perform armed robbery / Flee with the lottery, possibly they spotted me"). Recording When RZA spoke in a 2005 interview about having the whole clan work together, he said: Music video The song's music video was directed by Brett Ratner who, at the time, had previously directed other hip hop music videos, including "Tonight's da Night" by Redman in 1993 and "Nuttin' but Love" by Heavy D & the Boyz in 1994. In a 1997 interview with MTV news reporter Serena Altschul, Ratner revealed that Raekwon came up with the video's treatment. Joseph Kahn was the cinematographer. The video cost about $800,000 to make. The video begins with a fictional breaking news bulletin alerting of a massive swarm of killer bees converging on Manhattan via New York City's four other boroughs, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx and Staten Island.
