When:
Thu Mar 11, doors 5.30pm
How much:
$52 +BF from here
Description:
Fans of the legendary Wu-Tang Clan will grudgingly agree with me that the once prolific hip-hop crew haven't exactly been kicking goals in the last 5 years. Major exception: Raekwon the chef, whose imaginatively titled Only Built 4 Cuban Linx...Pt 2 was not only one of the best albums of 2009, but a worthy addition to the Wu back catalogue.
Event: Performance
Stimulus: 40s and blunts

RZA (Wu Tang Clan)

Prince Bandroom, 29 Fitzroy St, St Kilda
When:
Fri Feb 12, 8pm
How much:
$52.80 +BF from Missing Link, Polyester, Obese records and here
Description:
If the RZA requires an introduction to you, you obviously never smoked weed in the '90s. Also known under myriad aliases - Bobby Digital, Prince Rakeem, Bobby Steels, the Abbot and so on, RZA is the producer behind some of the best hip-hop ever recorded - the many masterpieces of the Wu-Tang Clan.
Event: Performance

What:
Ghostface Killah
Where:
The Espy, 11 The Esplanade, St Kilda
When:
Thurs June 25 and Sat June 27
How much:
$55
Description:
No big deal, just THE BIGGEST HIP HOP TOUR OF THE YEAR. While the rest of the Wu Tang Clan have fallen off since their mid '90s heyday, Ghostface continues to release classic albums, strut around in Versace robes and commission incredibly gaudy jewellery. He's like a ghetto superhero in that regard.
Event: Supper
Stimulus: Do-rags and baggy get ups
