De Wu tang clan is toch wel één van de meest succesvolle rapacts van het einde van de jaren negentig te noemen. Niet alleen als groep maar ook solo leverde de heren diverse top cd’s af. Maar dat is niet de reden waarom kungfufilms.nl aandacht aan deze muziekact besteed. Als je iemand ambassadeurs van old skool kung fu films mag noemen dan zijn zij het wel. Tussen, én door hun nummers heen werd namelijk regelmatig gebruik gemaakt van samples uit diverse kung fu films. Ook wordt er in de nummers niet onder stoelen of banken gestoken dat ze graag naar dit genre films kijken. Op deze manier hebben ze de kung fu film onder de aandacht van een veel groter publiek weten te brengen en daar mogen we ze dankbaar voor zijn. Maar uit welke films komen deze samples nu precies? Hieronder vind je een lijst met de samples die op de albums terug te vinden zijn.
