Deluxe 24k audiophile gold disc CD version (the disc itself is embedded 24-karat gold) with re-mastered audio, housed in a cherrywood trophy box with gold Ironman plaque. Forty-eight page full-color, hard-cover book including liner notes, extended artwork, album lyrics, and text from noted journalist Chris Faraone. "By the time hip-hop had ambled its way to 1996, one fact was undeniable: the Wu-Tang Clan was not only here to stay, but amazingly also gaining steam with each new solo release. Rap scribe Chris Faraone sets the stage quite nicely for the landing of Ironman in the set's liner notes: 'With such vigorous [Wu-Tang solo release] precedents before him, Ghostface set an even higher standard for himself, venturing deep through sound and space continuums that his comrades had already trampled, but also finding new frontiers to pillage. With not just Raekwon but also Park Hill vet and sleeper ace Cappadonna along for the ride, the MC known as Tony Starks barreled through love songs, posse cuts, verbal battlegrounds, and even soft ballads that show a softer side of the previously guarded Wu. As a result, Ghost earned a well-deserved rep as the group's most versatile stylist, and as a rare rap artist who's not afraid to appear vulnerable or pull heartstrings."
