U God doing a runner on the cab

 

[prophecypro]

U God sound like every bit the delousinal person the other Wu members said he was. Expecting cameras for the interview but dont even got cash to pay a cab

Cappadonna's broke struggles sound more than people thought

 

[DaveyDave]

Capp has eight kids (and one grandchild!) in New Jersey, Atlanta, and Maryland, and is now reluctantly living in Arizona raising his youngest son, whose mother is a native Southwesterner. They reside in a well-manicured home purchased by his wife’s grandfather, who happens to be the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan.

YO WTF Cap's wiz grandfather is Farrakhan!?

The fukkery

if you missed out completely lit RZA was at Bonnaroo:

 

[DaveyDave]

RZA is BLOTTO!

 

[Diunx]

He’s in Adidas track pants, socks, and shower sandals, a white V-neck stretched over his sizable gut; he moves swiftly, but with a bit of a waddle. As we talk, he continuously pours a handful of M&Ms from one palm into another.

Eating M&Ms and not wanting the healthier oil for his dinner, Rae just don't give a fukk about that gut :dead

 

[Jeffrey Lebowski]

Meth would show up looking “dusty” for Wu dates, Rae says, even though he was “fresh as ever” when touring with Redman.

Well that was fukking depressing...not really a wu fan, but i just assumed the tone of this article would be a tad bit more celebratory...after reading you get the impression the writer was a huge wu-nerd back in the day, but after spending time interviewing them while putting this together came away thinking " I can't believe how and how big of fukk ups these dudes are" ... everything's pretty much framed as "they were supposed to be way greater than this, but they fell the fukk off after '97 and have spent the past 15 years as pathetic shells of their former potential transcendence" ...lol exactly what i was expecting from a 20 year anniversary retrospective

I was about to post this. RZA was really enjoying himself at Bonnaro.
