Wu Tang Clams are just one of the many hip-hop-based food items on the extensive Rappetite menu in Atlanta, GA. Other hilarious offerings include Lil' Kimchee, Talib Quail-i, and the devilish-sounding Ol' Dirty Custard. The unfortunate thing about this restaurant is that it's all a hoax. "A fun joke that has gone out of control!" wrote Everett Steele of Atlanta-based interactive media agency Baby Robot . This may be a good thing considering that "beef" between the Turkey Minaj and Lil' Kimchee could easily wreak havoc to your stomach. Wu-Tang member [...]
Dear Gordon Gee, The GZA spoke at Harvard . Now, he is speaking at Oxford(U.K.) on January 28th about his beginnings as an MC, his Clan, his inspiration, his process, LIQUID SWORDS, and the state of hip hop. The lecture will be followed by a Q&A. I think OSU needs to compete with these reputable schools and bring the GZA to Columbus. Maybe he could play Liquid Swords while he is town. Or maybe he will do songs off his upcoming Baby Grande Release. Best, Wes Flexner European [...]
all photos by debi del grande Although two main members of Wu-Tang Clan (Ghostface Killah and Raekwon) were not performing, that didn't stop Club Nokia from being so packed you could barely move. Champagne was flowing, the floor was vibrating and everyone was feeling the beat. Method Man, RZA and GZA were highlights of the evening. —Debi Del Grande [View with PicLens]
Wu-Tang Clan's GZA met with scientists at MIT to do research for his next album. GZA - a.k.a. Gary Grice, founding member of the Wu-Tang Clan - is known for an omnivorous intellect and complex lyrics that reference, among other things, astronomy, philosophy, and chess, which he has played since childhood. He was in town this week to lecture at the Harvard Black Men's Forum. But first, he wanted to drop some science. Specifically, oceanography. And biology. And quantum physics. So he went on a three-day tour, meeting scientists around Harvard University [...]
DJ Muggs and Gza Ft. Raekwon and Rza - Advanced Pawns Just posted an article about Rza and his headphones, which also featured bits about his new 3D chess app and upcoming Kung Fu film. Here is a dope track featuring the Rza off of the DJ Muggs and Gza concept album, Grandmasters.

The origin of GZA's visit to Boston's premiere schools was a speaking date at Harvard's Black Man Forum but set aside time to met and talk with physicists, biologists, a Pulitzer prize-winning novelist and scores of students. He discussed everything from how an albatross flies without flapping its wings to photosynthetic ocean bacterium and, of course, the music industry. The Boston Globe caught up with Wu-Tang's founding member to talk about his three-day visit and the article -- which I highly recommend -- can be found here . via [ The Boston Globe ] [...]

My homie and Crypt keeper himself Vega was in the audience for last Thursday's lecture by the Genius at Harvard and recorded this 3-part audio track of GZA's talk. He gives a basic autobiography of his beginnings in hip-hop, breaking through with Wu-Tang after his stint at Cold Chillin' and general thoughts about music and his approach. Big shouts to Vega for getting this historic one-of-one lecture on tape. The GZA has been in Boston the past [...]

Wu-Tang Clan's GZA also calls himself the Genius. No one ever questions that. Put Liquid Swords on around me, and I will break down a zillion insights one can get from that album. Even when joking, the WU-Chappelle Show Skit about diversifing one's options kinda was well, genius. And is there any question what the best scene in Coffee & Cigarettes is ? Well, the Genius is preparing to visit Cambridge, Mass to drop jewels and build with some of the brightest minds on the planet earth while gearing [...]

GZA, founding member of Wu-Tang Clan, is living up to something his group-mate Method Man spoofed in the movie How High. Yes, GZA is going to Harvard.

The lecture is hosted by the Harvard's Black Men's Forum and will be followed by Q&A. This is open to the public. On top of this news, GZA will visit the Broad Institute and the MIT Media Lab to meet with [...]
