Shit looks serious...

[DUMBO]

Interesting. I don't think De Grasse would appreciate Gza's verse about God creating the cosmos but whatever.

I'm surprise Gza is going with live bands for Liquid Swords pt 2. I thought he wanted Rza - sampling Rza - to make the beats. I guess reality set in.

[THE W]

In between will come "Liquid Swords 1.5," for which GZA will re-record the lyrics to his beloved 1995 album "Liquid Swords," backed by live bands.

a live remake of Liquid swords. seems more and more like the album we were hoping for isnt gonna happen.

[corky831]

yup....no more LS II

[TheFunkyDrummer]

LS 1.5 sounds like a terrible idea. I remember not too long ago GZA performing Liquid Swords with a band, don't remember the name I think it was Wavves or something that was very bad corny chorus and stuff like that. He should just focus on making Dark Matter & after that in 2057 the posthumous album Liquid Swords 2 will be released. Let Will Sessions do it they're great but GZA probably doesn't know about it or El Michels Affair.

[THE W]

after dark matter he'll be working on an aquatic album apparently.

Cant wait, now we can have some higher education

This nigga done flipped his wig. Damn.

[cj wisty]

i liked that line about saturn

[Jin10304]

So were going to get 2012 GZA putting out the same album backed by maybe Will Sessions/El Michaels....fucking lame. This now marks TWO albums deterred from LS2. I give up, GZA made a realisation. I wonder if hes going to have the others re-record their verses as well

[UNCLE RUCKUS]

still lookng forward to Dark Matter, though Id like to see some generals work with Rza again it isnt looking too good The Rebellion may come out with no Rza Meth is labeless and unmotivated so whos left

[FasterBlade]

love the Tyson consulting, and Jacques Costeau's son for the aquatic album. nice to have friends in high places lol

as for LS 2, everything involving these guys is so slow now ill worry about it when he says something about it. just looking forward to new material

[deezGlazedTonsils1981]

I'd like to see alchemist produce all of dark matter

[Luz]

GZA thinks playing chess and watching nature documentaries makes him a genius.

Dude doesn't even have a GED. How sad.

[phadde96]

Good read, thanks. GZA performs with more energy with live bands, maybe he should record everything this way. And live, one take.
