I made this rap mixtape top a friend who says she loves Wu-Tang, but doesn't know that much about rap.

She' mostly into indie rock, so I decidedly didn't include more mainstream stuff, or anything too smooth.

Maybe she needs smooth. Or ODB.

You missed out "Deeez Nuuuts".

Well, I didn't want to put anything too blatantly sexist on it.

If a girl likes "Diary Of A Madman," you should marry her. Or not because she's prolly fucked up.

put on "mind playing tricks on me", indie rockers love it

before diving into this I'd have to ask why she likes wu-tang. when you identify what elements she's responding to...

most non-rap fans I know that soley respond to the first wu-tang album do so because it's very immediate without being too bombastic

Where's the IAM? People that like the Wu would love IAM.

I can't say whether she'll like that or not, but I can say that it's not really a great introduction to rap overall, a lot of obscure, just-OK tracks. Your closer is great though, that's a new-ish classic. Could probably use some better representation from the Native Tongues/Rawkus.
