My interview with RZA

An excerpt from me 2019 interview with RZA of the Wu-Tang Clan for HNHH:



"Creativity exists in each and every one of us," RZA told us exclusively, adding that we all operate on creative "low or high vibrations." In February 2020, a handful of lucky chosen few will have the opportunity to participate in Camp TAZO: Zen on Staten Island— or as RZA and the Wu call it, "Shaolin." Not many people would pick the New York City borough as a location for a retreat, even if it was their hometown, but RZA wanted Camp TAZO attendees to return with him to the scene that cultivated one of the greatest hip hop collectives of all time.

"The isolation of it," RZA said, is why Staten Island is the perfect breeding ground of creativity. He shared that although all of Wu's records are acclaimed projects that have sold millions and won awards, their debut, Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers), is the best album they've ever created. "Nothing compared to what was done naturally," he stated. "We woke up with the desire to create."

Read my interview with RZA in its entirety over at HNHH.
