This is the definitive biography of rap supergroup, Wu-Tang Clan (WTC). Widely regarded as one of the most influential
 
groups in modern music--hip hop or otherwise--WTC has released seven albums [including four gold and platinum studio albums
as well as the genre-defining Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)]
and has launched the careers of famous rappers like RZA, Ol' Dirty Bastard, Ghostface Killah, Method Man, and more.
Beyond the musicians in the group itself, WTC has also collaborated with
many of the biggest names in the game-from Busta Rhymes and Redman to Nas and Kanye West),
and one is hard pressed to find a group who's had a bigger impact on the evolution of the hip hop genre.
 
Though there have been biographies written about the band, both from members (like RZA)
and collaborators (like Cyrus Bozorgmehr), most of the material that's
been published so far has either focused on a single member of the group's story, or a narrow timespan of their work.
This book will not only feature interviews with all living WTC members and a comprehensive look at their discography
it also includes never-before-revealed insight into their childhoods and the neighborhoods that shaped them growing up
It's unique in its breadth, scope, and access--a must-have for fans of WTC and music bios more generally.
