  2. 8.0 |   Q

    The sound of an artistic slump coming to an end. Print edition only

    Most Wu-Tang fans will be pleased with the album, there are even a few new tracks that are sure to become instant classics

  4. 7.0 |   All Music

    As a Wu-Tang album, The Saga Continues is good but not great, but it's a fine calling card for Mathematics

  5. 6.9 |   Earbuddy

    The Saga Continues is fine enough to be on par with about half of the group’s proper albums

  6. 6.7 |   A.V. Club

    The best Wu-related effort since 2010’s thin yet enjoyable Wu-Massacre

  7. 6.0 |   Clash

    At its best, 'The Saga Continues' captures some of the old Wu magic but unfortunately these moments are few and far between

  8. 6.0 |   Mojo

    If not the masterpiece RZA has claimed, it still sounds totally canonical. Print edition only

  9. 6.0 |   PopMatters

    While it’s good to hear from all the Wu members throughout the album, it’s Method Man that stars again and again on this offering

  10. 5.8 |   Consequence Of Sound

    Enough to satisfy core fans but very little in the way of memorable moments
    Read Review

  11. 5.5 |   The 405

    To be fair, not all is lost. Mathematics is an able producer, and brings some fine beatcraft to the table, and, naturally, it's still nice to hear your favorite Wu personalities

  12. 5.0 |   Slant Magazine

    This may be enough to satisfy the '90s purists and the Shaolin faithful, but for the rest of us, it's hard to recommend

  13. 5.0 |   Crack

    It’s worth a few plays for Wu nerds, but let’s not approach The Saga Continues as a significant release

  14. 4.5 |   Pitchfork

    The Saga Continues seems like a lazy way to cash in on Wu-Tang cachet
