Utdrag fra et Raekwon intervju i Entertainment Weekly:

Moving on to this album you’re doing with Meth and Ghost, Wu-Massacre, when did you start working on that?

"I’d say probably four or five months ago. We just wanted to make another album that really represents our brand, which is the W. When you think of Wu-Tang, we’ve been in the business for damn near almost, what, 17 years? We just want to make sure that people still know that we didn’t go nowhere — musically, passionately about hip-hop. When you get records like this, it helps keep the W flag up high. You know what I mean? Like the American flag. We gotta take care of that flag."

Ghostface i et intervju med RapRadar:

"We not a group. We already in Wu-Tang. So it’s not like we trying to start a group. We don’t need that."

Wu-Tang Clan. nuff said.

Triumph (director's commentary)

Wu-Tang Clan - Triumph (1997) fra albumet Wu-Tang Forever (spotify).

To give you a taste of his resume, we selected six of our favorite Brett Ratner-directed videos—including bangers from Wu-Tang, D’Angelo, and Public Enemy—and asked the man himself to give a little commentary about how each classic came together. Believe us, the man’s got stories for days...

DIRECTOR’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?”

mixtape: Raekwon & DJ Absolut - Blood On Chef’s Apron

We still be patiently waiting for OBFCL2. Med denne offsielle warmup mixtapen føles det endelig som om at albumet ikke er langt unna. OBFCL2 har ennå ikke fått en release date, men EMI har sagt at albumet kommer.. Hvis du ikke vet hva OBFCL er kan du school yourself ved å lese review av Only Built For Cuban Linx på spotify og høre to låter fra det albumet.

Første singel fra OBFCL2:

MTV YEAH

Endelig kan alle vi som ikke liker å se Hulk Hoogan og en eller annen latterlig serie a'la The Hills glede oss over MTV, de har nemlig begynt å legge ut _alle_ musikkvideoene som noensinne har vært på kanalen! Live-opptak av artister fra diverse show skal også opp siden. Ikke er det fullt av reklame på siden heller, ennå.. Fette lekent lett å finne fram til gamle favoritter også, bye bye youtube. Sweeeeet lydkvalitet også! Sjekk det ut på www.mtvmusic.com. Siden er SPANKIN NEW, for å bruke litt MTV lingu, så er ikke så sykt mange videoer oppe å går ennå, men fant et par gode gamle likevell. (var litt ivrig å putta opp 5 videoer nedenfor)
