Unlike the last two, there’s no theme for this month’s Fun Facts, just good ol’ random shenanigans. With school picking up steam once again, nowadays the creative juices are flowing more like Jim Jones than Rakim. 1. Inspectah Deck had a cold when he recorded his verse for “Stick Me For My Riches” off 8 Diagrams [...]

I got a link on io9 about my post on afro futurism. I'd have responded there, but I can't comment or whatever, so I'll just do it here. Hope those guys come through and find this! Also, the OP says the essay refers to "alternate personas of the Wu-Tang Clan" when it only refers to one [...]

RZA’s creative output as Bobby Digital has been a mixed bag. The Zorro-masked alter ego allows the Wu-Tang shogun to lighten up his usual Five Percenter demeanor and indulge in guilty pleasures. On 1998’s RZA as Bobby Digital in Stereo and 2001’s Digital Bullet, the MC/producer’s scene-stealing beats furthered his split personality.

Its official, Bobby Digital has made his triumphant return. Now we heard this joint back in February, but it seems the music video’s version of the song is just a bit different (Inspectah Deck is absent and ODB’s vocals are turned up a notch). ‘You can’t stop me now’ is the first single off of [...]
