Wu-Tang Clan — Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) (1993)

The debut that launched one of hip-hop's most iconic collectives, recorded on a shoestring budget in Staten Island. The group's one-of-a-kind companion album Once Upon a Time in Shaolin later sold for millions of dollars — first to Martin Shkreli, then to the crypto collective PleasrDAO — underlining Wu-Tang's cultural mystique.
