Wu Tang Clan - January 3
Taking their group name from a powerful and mythical kung fu sword, Wu-Tang Clan formed into nine talented MC's. The vision of Wu-Tang is best known for the musical talents of RZA and under his directions, the group created surreal and one-of-a kind soundscapes out of hardcore beats, ghostly piano riffs and minimal samples. By 1995 Wu-Tang Clan had changed the sound of hip-hop to one of the most recognizable sounds in hip-hop today! These multi-platinum selling artists, movie stars and grammy winners put on a show everytime with their hard beats and energetic performance.
Wu-Tang Clang with RZA, GZA, Ghostface, U-god, Raekwon, Masta Killa and Inspectah Deck, were unbelievable!
