About the WU
Revisionist history, i read the other day on facebook (i mean where else do people go to let the world know they’re stupid right?) that some guy did not care for the RZA at all, and that they’re fave wu was Meth & ODB by far.
This kind of rubs me the wrong way. Of course everybody’s entitled to their own opinions, but dismissing RZA like that is cold, he’s made great great stuff, and i guess he’s basically put the whole thing together so at the very least he deserves respect for that.
Secondly, i feel Meth & ODB is kind of a lazy choice, don’t get me wrong i love them, sure U-God and inspectah deck never really held that spotlight too much, and GZA’s glory days may be too far back for you to remember but you can’t seriously deny Ghostface and Rae.
They wrote some groundbreaking, milestone stuff. I guess you can really click with people when talking about who’s your favorite wu a lot more than who’s your favorite beatle right? So i cast my vote for Rae and Ghostface, without fear.

RZA wraps up mocap for Activision game
One reasonable guess is that RZA was mo-capped for inclusion in the next or some future iteration of the DJ Hero franchise, but he’s not known as a “DJ” per se and is more accurately credited as a producer, among other creative roles. Roughly a decade ago, RZA was one of the Wu-Tang characters featured in the Activision-published Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style fighting game for PS1.
Ghostface Killah’s brief time as a kindergarten teacher proved that the Wu-Tang Clan ain’t nothin’ to duck-duck-goose with.
I know. I never tumbl’ anymore and now this.
‘Night!
I didn’t know George Washington wore tights so tight. I actually couldn’t put the tights on how I was supposed to because they were so tight. I was embarrassed with the tights on because they really hug your nuts. So instead of the tights they bought from the prop house, I had a pair of [thermals] also. I’m from New York. So I put on my own tights. More baggy, more space for my nuts.

Wu-Tang Clan “Triumph” (1997)
DIRECTOR ’BRETT RATNER’S COMMENTARY: “It was the first million dollar rap video. When Steve Rifkind asked me, I said, ‘Are you sure about this record? There’s no chorus!’ He says “Trust me, its gonna be the biggest record of the year. Only Wu-Tang could pull this off.’ So, I set up the video—Joseph Kahn was my cinematographer. I hear that they want eleven Suburbans—they each want their own. They each also want $50,000 worth of gear, and they told me all their designers. So first day, these guys are walking in one at a time, and each guy walks into the dressing room, and walks out with plastic bags filled with all the clothes. I called Steve like, ‘They’re stealing all the clothes!’ He’s like, ‘Don’t worry, let them have it.’”“It’s a five day shoot, and it’s crazy. The greatest fuckin’ experience, they’re eating mushrooms the whole time. Ol’ Dirty never shows up. I was like, Oh my god, this is fucking insane! The most fun I ever had. After shooting ends, they all leave to go on tour in Europe, but Ghost never would travel, because he had diabetes. So he checks into a hotel, and they said, ‘Yo Ghost, you watch Brett, and watch over that edit, man. White devil could fuck it up!” So, we’re in the edit room, and we call the group on speakerphone. And it’s the funniest thing, this is embedded in my memory. They’re all on the phone like, ‘White muthafuckin’ devil, man, tryin’ to rob us motherfucker!’ And Ghost is looking at me while on speakerphone, just winking at me like, I love you man! [laughs].”
“So three days into the edit, I get a call that Ghost had had been kicked out of like eleven hotels, and I’m like, ‘Why were you kicked out?’ He’s like, ‘I don’t know man, I got fucked up, and I just start breaking shit. Can you come get me? I got no place to stay.’ So I let him stay at my house. Suddenly my phone rings, and it’s Steve Rifkind, ‘Whats going on?’ I go, ‘Nothing, I’m just bringing Ghost over my house ’cause he got kicked out of the hotel.’ Then there’s silence on the other end of the phone. I say, ‘Whats wrong?’ He goes, ‘I gotta call you back.’ Five days later, he calls me up and goes, ‘Are you okay? Oh my God, you scared the shit outta me, man. How can you let this guy stay at your house? I don’t even let these guys know where I live!’ I go, ‘What do you mean? He’s the nicest guy in the world.’ He goes, ‘You don’t know what Ghostface has? He hallucinates, he hears voices like kill your mom, kill your mom. He has to be medicated because he has homicidal thoughts.’ So a month goes by, and I would edit all day, and Ghost would just chill at my house until we finished. A month later, I’m with my girlfriend in the backyard, and the cat starts going fucking crazy and starts digging into the dirt. We dig up a bucket of fried chicken. Ghost buried a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken in the backyard. How fuckin’ freaky is that?”
that wacky ghostface kid!!
