After listening to “Lord Marduk,” I gotta ask. What’s going on with you and Cilvaringz?
This is the first and last time I’m going to talk about this. In 2012 Cilvaringz hit me up to be on his album and I saw it as an opportunity for my album also. We had a conversation, real light, over the phone and I came out to NY, my hometown, but in the contract, I told him, “Listen, here’s the contact. I’ll do the verse if you can put a banner up on Wu-Tang Corp. Just help me out and support. Show me that you want to support me as much as you want me to support you. You know, one hand wash the other.” He had agreed to that. He said, “Oh yeah.” I wouldn’t do nothing until that was in the contract. It was all love, but I wanted to keep it business too. I did my part and we created the contract. My man Gee was there. He made the contract and he sent it to me. I read it and I had my lawyers see it and whatever. It was in there. Okay, fine. I’ll do the verse and you make sure you put that banner up there. I do the verse and this dude never, ever contacted me again, even when I was leaving. I wanted to stay a couple of extra days. he never got back in touch with me. I never heard from him ever again. As much as I tried to contact him, he stopped answering the phone.
And the person he had working, he said, “I don’t know, Priest. He’s just acting like a bitch right now.” Even the dude that was working with him was saying that He wasn’t answering the phone and I never spoke to him and that shit was just eating at me, man. It’s like, that dude’s a fake and he’s lying. Even when they said my album was dropping, he never picked up the phone and asked me about it and asked if I was good and if I needed him to do anything. He didn’t give me no information. So time goes by and time goes by and it dawned on me, man, Cilvaringz is fake and he’s a liar. He’s all about the music but he’s not really about being a man of his word or looking out for his brother like he say he is. So one day I was doing a track and I just expressed it. It’s all love. Everything I said was the truth and I felt like I said all that was needed to say. It’s one and it’s done. I let it out there.
So he got the word and called me up and said, “I heard you dissed me on the track.” I told him it wasn’t even a diss. It’s real life. I just said it and you can take it for what it is. But that’s exactly what happened and I’m not lying. He’s a liar. But all of a sudden, after he heard that I dissed him, he’s calling me a lot and I saw how he could pick up the phone and call me when it was about his personal self. That’s what I don’t like about brothers like that. It’s not about selling records. It’s about keeping up with each other. We’re older now and we’re in a different state. Don’t play with me like that. He’s a liar and that’s the truth. He says he’s a man of his word but he lied to me, and that was it. And for everybody out there, that’s exactly what happened. CIlvaringz, just practice what you preach and don’t lie to real dudes because that shit’s going to come back on you and a cat like me, I’m not going to have that. I came at him like a brother and he tried that bullshit. Get that industry bullshit out of you and be real and holla at cats. And that goes out to the Wu-Tang Nation out there. I was talking about Cilvaringz on there. Word up.
I was just about to post this shit. Dope interview.
Wu Massacre IIQuote:
You’ve been touring with Ghostface a lot too. What’s your relationship like with him today?
Yeah, that’s my brother right there. We’re going to end up doing an album. We’re working on a lot of stuff. We’re on the road and we write down a lot of ideas. He’s very supportive of the album. I have tears in my eyes. We were on tour in Canada and let me say this. For a lot of people out there, I’m glad everybody’s got their albums now. I make sure if you pay for it I make sure that you get it. We finally got it on Amazon. When we first started the tour, I was actually doing a show in place of Inspectah Deck in Canada:lmao:. So when I went out there, it was three days ahead of Ghost getting there. He wanted me on the tour. And the same day that the CDs were done, I was leaving and I had to go pick up my CDs and it was too far. The plane was right there. You know, it was just too far, man. Word. All the way down by San Diego or something. It was too far so I didn’t even have the CDs on the road, but that’s what made it so wild. Through my team, I got it delivered. My team delivered the CDs.
And Ghost helped me a lot. He’s very supportive. We’re going to do an album. We’ve already recorded together. That’s my brother right there.
Great interview. Thx for the link.
Anakim Anthidium Army? that sounds sick
i believe that translates into "Giant Killa Bee Army"
I doubt the trade was a verse for a banner ad so he still probably got paid for his verse.
Priest needs to get the sand out of his vag. Can't believe he dissed him over that.
Everyone will defend Priest here, simply cause he recently dropped an amazing album. No one of us knows what actually happened. Let's leave it like that. This will be a long discussion..
props for posting this Jammin. Excellent interview.
Dope interview. Thanks.
Thanks for posting. I'm wondering how Cilva refers to this situation
Cilvaringz needs to change his tampons a bit more often. He acts kinda girlish at times.
Cilva has already addressed this... he said that Priest's guy never even sent him a banner to put up here or some shit like that.
Dope interview though.
Peace!

killah priest >>> loser ass wu tang wanna bees
i remember cilva wanted to do an album with killah p called heavier mental but only wanted to do it if killah p came to morocco... killah p has a life and doesnt wanna be around loser wannabees
Nigga has been lying for years. Priest just confirmed my assumptions.
I'm going to buy my second copy of the priest album...and will not pay 1 cent to cilvaringz( if the album ever leaves his underground bunker that is)
KP first ballot hip hop hall of famer wu legend for the win
He lost me at he had his lawyers look at it-seriously, a lawyer????-it's not that hard to deal with Cilvaringz and he's picks up his phone and is not that hard to find. If you needed a lawyer, you must not be too smart-its not hard to read and wasn't a contract beyond a normal person's comprehension-save the lawyer for the multi's. Thats where I sense exaggeration starting. How could he not be able to find Cilva? Yeah, thats also hard to believe. I don't know but to go to make a verse dissing Cilva-it's not that serious and sounds more like hurt feelings.
^^^ well i think priest kinda of sense what he was dealing with being he had to have a contract in the first place.. cilva is a bitch ass as it seems priest just wanted him to keep his word and he didn't.. and like killah said its not even a diss just called him on his bullshit.. i
Cilvaringz.
Brothers ain't Brothers no more.
I would like to see second wave of hate on Cilvaringz and his poor explanation of his absolute innocence !!!
Here's what doesn't make sense to me, why do you need somebody else to give you the banners, why do you not answer your phone, why do you think it's hilarious when people get pissed at you for not answering and leave angry voicemails, then post those angry voicemails as skits on your album. Why are you such a little girl, Cilvaringz? Are you having emotional problems?
Ghostface/Killah priest album >>>> Ghostface/DOOM album
We dont know what really happened.
None of my business..I don't care...where's the music at? ThTs what I'm here for
reminds me of the Almighty incident from a few years ago...Priest & his management team have a track record for bullshittin so i wouldnt put it past them...
priest "whats this group your making called"
80 "oh its me, YOU, blah blah blah"
lol at m80 tellin people whos in his group aka getting features and telling them "hey youre in my grpup". paperwork or not, u paid dudes for a group that was never a "group". priest said m80 is all about the allmighty and m80 says no listing his dealings with otehr artists... aka making money off all these dudes in procces. maybe dealing with m80 priest all bout paperwork
lol @ 80 saying 50-100 page of paperwork for a song and then sins wife saying "no paperwork". maybe not for sin. dude gets paid in commisary
cilva has lied a buncha times. wheres the instrumental album wit bronze? rza didnt like remedy jacking muslim and a jew and lieing but let rem release it in stores wit rza on it right and put together swarm vol 3 right?... lets be rea
On some real shit tho i do agree that priest was in some trash wit that diss if it was only about some banners....Priest jus wants to flex on cilvaringz a lil i guess. After droppin p.w.o.w.r., Priest got niggas shakin in they boots
priest did say hes one and done hes moving on from the bull crap yeah let me get back to this pwowr shit
Well since this concerns me I'll speak on it only once as well. First, before this album became what it is now, it was made for a possible Priest collabo I wanted to do. Now I kid you not but I was calling Priest for over 6 months to discuss doing this album. He picked up three times to tell me to call back later and obviously that proved to be quite difficult. Now fair enough on my brother Priest, he a busy man, family and all, running around, all good. Now dont take my word for it, try Shabazz or Gods Wrath who all knew that I was having a very hard time getting to Priest and were helping me out with it.
Any way, no harm done, all happens for a reason and the album grew into something much bigger so maybe meant to be, who knows.
Now skip forward a few months. I get my investment in and I start organizing the recordings for the album. My man GI (Gee as Priest calls him) and Barracuda are off to Staten Island to record. After some challeging coordination I manage to get Priest. Album wouldnt be dope without him ofcourse so Im willing to go the extra mile to make it happen.
We agree on the payment, no probs there and he kindly requests to bring his girl along which is fair enough. We agree on the dates, I book the flight, hotel, GI handles the pick up, transport, food perdiems, all that, no probs. When I hear the first recordings Im not entirely happy with all of it and Priest has no problem redoing certain parts which is cool of him. We speak on the phone and he mentions the banner idea which I have no problem with. He wanted it in the contract which I have no problem with and so we put it in.
Now Im working on a tight budget which led to the first little arguement when Priest wanted to stay longer in NY and wanted me to pay for changing the flights. That is something I couldnt do at that moment for no other reason but financial. If I had it, no probs. but I didnt. Anyway if my memory serves me right, he managed to sort it out.
But... to go on a record and call me a liar is very disappointing. October 18th 2012 at 18.12 I sms Priest to have his guy ESL to mail me the artworks. No reply. Nov 03 I sms again asking if he's with Ghost cause I wanna talk to him (Priest). No reply. Jan 17th at 21.07 after the phone convo about me hearing he dissed me, I send him my email address again and ask him on the phone to text me back just so I know he got it. No reply.
I cant check my emails now but I aint get the designs for banners until a few weeks ago, well after he had already decided to make me out for a liar on his album. Im sorry but thats just wrong. Diss your designer instead cause he aint sent the shit. Or better, call me and call him and try to solve the problem, its only a minor thing. But to go call someone who is your Wu brethren if not anything else over a banner, not sure how yall see it but I feel its wrong.
Im not a liar. I have no benefit in lying about anything. As far as I know, GI passed him the contract at the Ramada hotel and he checked it, asked for a few adjustments and signed it. Neither of us aware of any lawyer present. And like Lenore said, it was a straight forward 3 page release form. And to say I aint holla at him afterwards, October 18th 10:24 "sup priest u got back home ok?". He replied "no doubt".
Priest is a good brother with a good heart and good intentions thats why this was more disappointing than hurtful. Dude is a genius on the mic and Im happy to have him on the album. But I hope he will see that he was wrong here.
Reason his banners are not up at the moment is because after years and years the website is finally going back to Divine and RZA and they have their own rules.
Oddly enough, I have been getting into these types of beefs with a number of Wu brothers over the years and with this album coming out it wont get any less. You will hear about more "beefs" to come Im sure.
But I've learned to save all convos and communications, emails, sms's, etc over the years. You just never know when your integrity is put to question.
wow, I'm gonna have to carefully read this "manifesto" he has written. Holy shit, you guys think I put in effort.
When does this go into effect? Is it just a change of ownership, and who pays the bills to keep the lights on?Quote:

Or do they have bigger plans to reinvent this place?
You just never know....You just never know.

Figure of speech dummy
Someone has to pay the costs that accrue on a monthly basis for a high traffic site that burns through it's bandwidth allowance from all the emotional rants and gif files.
+ Keeping Tomb on his support payroll
I will laugh though if Divine buys this domain.. transfers it, and has the registrar CNAME it to his blog he runs.
Oh was it? I really didn't know that.
