Wu-Tang Clan members
Although the Staten Island collective has been together since 1992, there has been little turnover in the group’s history other than the untimely passing of Russell Tyrell Jones aka Ol’ Dirty Bastard in 2004.
As a quick refresher, here’s who you can expect to see when Wu-Tang performs:
RZA (Robert Fitzgerald Diggs)
GZA (Gary Grice)
Method Man (Clifford Smith)
Raekwon (Corey Woods)
Ghostface Killah (Dennis Coles)
Inspectah Deck (Jason Hunter)
U-God (Lamont Jody Hawkins)
Masta Killa (Elgin Turner)
Cappadonna (Darryl Hill)
You can get a closer look at the group’s history via their biographical Hulu series “Wu-Tang: An American Saga.” The show is currently midway through its third and final season.
Nas new music
Fresh off his first-ever concert at New York City’s Madison Square Garden, the Grammy-winning Nas is riding high after a busy past few years.
In 2020, Nas released the 13-track “The King’s Disease” with producer Hitboy and subsequently won his first Grammy in the process.
Featuring soulful samples, tight flows and top-notch verses from Charlie Wilson, Big Sean, Don Toliver, Lil Durk, Anderson .Paak and more, the record set the stage for “The King’s Disease II.”
The 2021 album was just as well received as the first “King’s Disease” and nabbed a nomination for Best Rap Album but lost to Tyler, The Creator’s “Call Me If You Get Lost.”
Finally, in November 2022, Nas’ “The King’s Disease III,” the first album in the trilogy to not include any guest appearances, dropped.
