The Wu-Tang Clanner, the lyrical genius, the man/brain behind the classic Liquid Swords record will be heading our way in September!
When it comes to thought provoking, street-bred raw lyricism, The Wu-Tang Clan’s fountain of wisdom, GZA takes his job very seriously. GZA’s metaphoric and multi-layered lyrics are often touted by critics as his rap name implies; genius.
Lauded by many as being “the best Wu- Tang solo project of all” his classic Liquid Swords album has changed hip- hop forever going on to sell over one million copies, earning GZA a platinum plaque.
Between his work with Wu, GZA has collaborated with artists ranging from the Black Lips to Santogold, even appearing alongside RZA in their legendary ‘Bill Murray’ scene in Jim Jarmusch’s Coffee & Cigarettes.
Don’t call GZA’s comeback just a comeback, it’s a return of an entirely revolutionary thought process. “When we did “Back In The Game” on the Wu-Tang album, I did a verse about gambling,” he explains solidly. “I didn’t want to be ‘back in the game’ or ‘back on the block,’ that’s typical. I made it all metaphorical.” It’s those same metaphors that makes the Genius’ liquid sword a living legend in it’s own time. Ticket details below... |
