Originally recorded during the late 1990s at the height of the Wu-Tang movement, First Amendment stands as a powerful document of Staten Island's underground hip-hop scene. Now presented as a newly restored digital remaster, this long-coveted project returns with enhanced clarity, preserving the raw energy and authenticity of it's original sessions while bringing the sound up to modern standards. Operating under the guidance of Wu-Tang Clan affiliate Cappadonna, Othorized Fam built a dedicated following through a series of hard-hitting 12-inch singles that captured the attention of fans across the underground. That momentum is fully realized here in a complete body of work that reflects the grit, lyricism, and sonic identity of Shaolin's golden era. Produced by 140 Productions, First Amendment features Lounge Lo, Shawn Wigs, Crunch Lo, and Molly Q, alongside an impressive lineup of Wu-Tang affiliates. Guest appearances include Ghostface Killah, King Just, Fes Taylor, Polite, and Leathafase, among others. Members of Othorized Fam would later go on to become part of Theodore Unit, further cementing their place within the extended Wu-Tang legacy. Rooted in the unmistakable Staten Island sound, First Amendment remains a timeless statement-raw, streetwise, and uncompromising. With this digital remaster, a vital piece of Wu-era history continues to resonate with both longtime fans and a new generation of listeners.
