While the nine members of the Wu-Tang Clan have kept busy with solo projects, features and collaborations, the Staten Island hip-hop collective only seems to get together to tour (though they did sell a $2 million double album to Pharma Bro Martin Shkreli, which was subsequently siezed by a federal court). Now RZA, GZA, Method Man, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Inspectah Deck, U-God, Masta Killa and Cappadonna are joining forces to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Wu's acclaimed debut album,Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). The collage of dusty jazz sample, excerpts from kung-fu movies and provocative lyricism set the tone of early ‘90s hip-hop, giving way to East Coast hip-hop luminaries like Nas and Jay-Z. Expect a performance of the 1993 record in its entirety, complete with Ol' Dirty Bastard disembodied verses and RZA's masterful production—rest assured that even after a quarter of a century, Wu-Tang can still bring the ruckus. Canadians rockers Reignwolf and New Orleans brass band the Soul Rebels support.
