Wu-Tang, Atomically

Twenty years after the Wu-Tang Clan invaded and radically altered hip-hop, Shaolin’s finest are struggling to reunite for one more album. Here, a 10-part portrait of how the legendary group lives apart today.

Article is pretty long, so I won't post it, but dude talks to everyone (except for ODB obviously), and is a must read.

Make sure you read the anecdotes too:

9. Meth’s first piece of jewelry was a set of gold teeth. His second was a Rolex bought with his fee for a guest verse on Foxy Brown’s “Ill Na Na.” He’d asked her camp for “25,” as in $2,500; they paid him $25,000.

The fights had spilled out onto the stage? I ask. “Nah. Dirt did some weird shyt and RZA pushed him into the crowd.”

They actually broke up kinda over CAC love. ...even tho that's why they could still tour big off them cacs. ..but great read GOAT group

Great fvcking read. As a Clan fan it can be depressing reading about the group disfunction. It's a miracle these guys still actively tour and create tracks with each other. We've seen hip hop groups with as little as two members not being able to last so it's mindblowing that Wu lasted this long. Regardless if this new album is their last or not, the Clan has to be the greatest ever. Their story is past legendary.

In the corner, a peckish U-God is living vicariously through Ghostface Killah’s description of the lasagna in the artists’ tent. “It was bangin’ bangin’?” U-God asks. “It was tight,” Ghost says. “Had the peppers on there and shyt.”

“Spraying ’pagne on me and all that,” Ghost cracks. “That’s my brotha — he can do that, though.”

RZA, deadpan: “I’m a director! I don’t work with no amateurs!”

In the background, GZA sends U-God’s lollipop flying into the bushes.
