then decided to work with up-and-coming
acts associated with the Klan’s rappers

and Cappadonna all released albums under
the wu-tang umbrella starting in 1998
the members of wu-tang spent the next
few years releasing solo records most of

releasing an abundance of material
within a short span and by promoting the
Wu wear clothing line and the wu-tang
Shaolin style video game the clans next
album was 2000’s the W case with the
Manchus mocha slim chances

keep it real I keep in LA that’s old
dirty and he’s invested the first whoo
tang clan released after ODB’s death
with 2007’s more experimental album
eight diagrams surviving members spent
the next few years on individual
endeavors
however the rapper’s still recorded
together and even began working on new
wu-tang material during the next decade
since the collective jumped on the scene
in 1993 rap was never the same
they brought respect to the East Coast
mixed urban lyrics with Asian influences
and created a style all their own with
nine distinct voices incredible in-house
production work and legions of fans it’s
no wonder the wu-tang Clan ain’t nothing
up with wu-tang is on the rise all the
way to the top and it’s never going to
be no top because we’re gonna keep
