The RZA to release “The Tao of Wu” book

Yeti — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 10:38:50 +0000

Although the Wu-Tang Clan have had their recent share of bumps with each other, RZA still has held true to his Wu-Tang philosophy which borders on religion. So it’s no surprise that RZA will be releasing his book “The Tao of Wu” which the publisher, Penguin Books, describes as “part chronicle of an extraordinary life and part spiritual and philosophical discourse” and compared as the “Siddhartha for the hip-hop generation —an engaging, seeking book that will enlighten, entertain, and inspire.” The book hits stores October 15, 2009 and will be available nationwide and online. Check the full synopsis after the jump…

A unique book of wisdom and experience that reaches from the most violent slums of New York City to the highest planes of spiritual thought by the RZA, hip-hop’s most exalted wise man.

The RZA, the Abbot of the Wu-Tang Clan and hip-hop culture’s most dynamic genius, imparts the lessons he’s learned on the journey that’s taken him from the Staten Island projects to international superstar, all along the way a devout student of knowledge in every form he’s found it—on the streets, in religion, in martial arts, in chess, in popular culture. Part chronicle of an extraordinary life and part spiritual and philosophical discourse, The Tao of Wu is a nonfiction Siddhartha for the hip-hop generation —an engaging, seeking book that will enlighten, entertain, and inspire.

The legions of Wu-Tang fans are accustomed to this heady mix—their obsession with the band’s puzzlelike lyrics and elaborate mythology has propelled the group through fifteen years of dazzling, multiplatform success. In his 2005 bestseller The Wu-Tang Manual, the RZA provided the barest glimpse of how that mythology worked. In The Tao of Wu, he takes us deep inside the complex sense of wisdom and spirituality that has been at the core of his commercial and creative success.

The book is built around major moments in the RZA’s life when he was faced with a dramatic turning point, either bad (a potential prison sentence) or good (a record deal that could pull his family out of poverty), and the lessons he took from each experience. His points of view are always surprising and provocative, and reveal a profound, genuine, and abiding wisdom—consistently tempered with humor and peppered with unique, colloquial phraseology. It is a spiritual memoir as the world has never seen before, and will never see again.

The official RIP Ol Dirty Bastard varsity jacket

Yeti — Tue, 24 Feb 2009 18:00:13 +0000

Ol Dirty Bastard x Para. Man I need to get this. The details on this new RIP ODB varsity jacket are crazy. Streetwear companies Para and Incase teamed up to release this “official” tribute jacket which was originally given to friends and family of ODB and The Wu-Tang Clan. The inner lining of the jacket has a nice image of ODB and even the liner tag is designed like the “Brooklyn Zoo” cover.

Well due to overwhelming demand (ahem…me) the jacket is now on sale for $450. That’s $200 more expensive than my high school varsity jacket where I was a three time letterman in…Math & Social Studies. Luckily this ODB jacket is 200 times cooler…so it’s totally worth it. Buy it at the ALIFE website. More pics of the jacket after the jump and thanks to CtotheJL for the heads up.

I’ll be first in line once these come out. Hopefully I won’t be the only one. At least I know the Stans that bought these $7,500 Wu-Tang Nikes will be there with me. Seems like these are a little past due but you can’t stop the Wu! (Source)

The $7,500 Wu-Tang Clan shoe

Yeti — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 15:20:36 +0000

We are assuming this is $7,500 for both shoes, not just the one pictured because $15,000 for a pair of shoes is just insane. $7,500 for a pair of shoes is much more reasonable. The legendary NY sneaker store Fight Club apparently has the impossible to find Nike “Wu-Tang” Dunk-Hi in size 11.5 only. One pair. We are pretty sure some kid with size 8 feet will buy them by the time this post goes up. Then he will get sneaker-jacked. Thanks to CtotheJL for the heads up.
