A horrible idea deserves a horrible outcome.
Cilva deserves it, sadly.
Like someone else said, it is tragic, because if this album had a normal fan-friendly release? The love would fueled Cilva's career and the Wu's. Instead, it's pumped the brakes.
I want to live in the other timeline, where Cilva & Wu-Tang released the album for purchase to the fans, and everyone is happy.

The sheer amount of disrespect to the Wu itself is just depressing from this guy.

^^ Tasmania for sure lol
I feel like Cilva got in too deep and got carried away after getting the investor to throw up mad money for the dream Wu project he and the fans wanted, without going through all of the potential drama that was spoken about in the second post above. I can't hate on dudes passion and all of this shit will blow over in a day or two but dude burned his bridges to the fans on this one, so I hope he got paid.

So Ringz did not receive money for this one?
Only $2 million was made after all this hype

Me too! 🙌
haha it's been YEARS since a thread has been this active.. this is without a doubt the biggest fiasco in the history of the Wu, and what's crazy is that every time a new piece of information about the project appears it just gets worse and worse..
just take the latest, their charitable donation after taking the AIDS money was A FUCKING HIP-HOP CHESS GROUP?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
daily updates: news, articles, reviews, the best compilations on the net. that true skool street hop!
r.i.p. Johan D, Kaddu, Ricke a.k.a. "Slick Rick" and the rest of the fallen soldiers - you'll never be forgotten!
This news is the saddest day in Wu's history since the passing of ODB...
What a horrible outcome.
lmao
Maybe we'll get a happy ending and RZA stabs the guy when they're having a lunch
Ah shit never mind, I guess they already had their banquet
This will get quite a lot attention, someone buying the album for millions gets some attention but not that much though, mostly from music journals etc.
This guy buying it will get it wide-spread though
