Rza was just on Fox Business News and said they are going to re-release ODB's music through a Boombotix speaker this summer with exclusive music.

[JZA/Jordon]

Fuck No, what am I going to do? Go out and buy another motherfucking speaker? I can't even pump this music in my car.

Enough already.

[Rev Jones]

damn only on boombotix. might cop it though, unreleased music is still good news. wanna hear it for sure. didn't buy the first boombotix thingy btw.

[Mumm Ra]

LOL he expects people to own a new portable speaker for each exclusive release?

with that said I might actually buy it if its aesthetically pleasing enough since I didn't cop the first one

[Sir Artsdradamus]

things like this wouldn't be done if people actually paid for music

[Mumm Ra]

very true. the first wu boombotix must've been pretty successful for RZA then

I bet he made more off that than any wu member could make off a solo album right now

[Cilvaringz]

Putting music on their own designed carriers unable to rip is quite a genius idea against pirating and putting value back into music. Inconvenient yes I agree, but it all depends from which perspective you're looking at it. And RZA succeeded with the last one, none of it has properly leaked.

I'm reminded of a quote by a very wise man ''if it bleeds we can kill it''

It's also a good way to keep people from hearing the music.

This shit is gonna look sick on my desk next to my turntables. Expensive yes but I would pay it to support the WU.

20 years ago, when Wu-Tang had a song on a soundtrack, you had to buy the CD (or cassette tape, if you were check 2) to hear it. that would be $15-20 to hear one wu-tang song. so, at least this way, you get a speaker with it.

True, but you're not really getting the song, you're getting a speaker that happens to have the song on it, which you can't put on a cd, playlist or MP3 player.
In the old days, sure you had to buy the cd but you're getting other songs too, and some of those early soundtrack songs ended up on proper albums anyway( Winter Warz, Heaven Or Hell, I Gotcha Back). Also, those songs could be transferred to whatever format you chose.
Good for RZA if this is successful, I won't argue against it existing. Like I said though I will never pay for something like that and I know I'm not alone.

[JZA/Jordon]

Like I said, am I supposed to buy another fucking speaker??

[biblebullet]

I guess some of us won't get to hear the music in the speakers....too bad it can't be ripped, but it can be recorded and shared right?

I remember the days of buying a soundtrack just for a single Wu track. Now you gotta buy a f#ckin speaker that I dont even know how to use, ha. "For my trapped in the 90s n!ggas"- Nas. Peace
