RZA has been in the spotlight as of late for his new feudal martial arts flick, The Man with the Iron Fists, due out on November 2. The film's soundtrack, which releases on October 22, has already got fans anticipating the full length LP with standout previews like Kanye West’s “White Dress” and RZA's “The Baddest Man Alive" with the Black Keys.
The legendary producer/rapper has gathered his Wu-Tang cohorts on a few selected tracks as well. It has raised the question: Will the Wu ever get back together for another record? Of course, RZA has given it a lot of thought. In the response below for the New York Times, he explains how GZA, Ghostface Killah, Method Man, Raekwon, Inspectah Deck, U-God, and Masta Killa can possibly go for one more run.
"It must remain unpredictable. But now that I’ve done [The Man With the Iron Fists], I’ve seen what a focused mind can do—and that’s how it started. A lot of people don’t know this about Wu-Tang, it started from a focused mind. I was given total autonomy to do whatever I want with them. If you listen to “Protect Ya Neck,” and U-God has four lines, not because he only wrote four lines—because I was able to take out everything else and just keep those four lines without him saying, “Yo, why I only got four lines?”
