    Could be. Probably Just For Men also. I remember there was a Rza ad for some headphones I think and his beard looked airbrushed.

    I still rock c.d.'s. I am rocking a rental 2020 Nissan Pathfinder right now and surprisingly, it has a c.d. player. Sounds real nice, makes me want to let the dealership keep my vehicle and just buy this off of the rental company

I'm thinking GLF is a one or two men company
    Yep, Amar Divine handles things there. I've purchased a bunch of stuff there and they always come through. And, like you experienced, the one time there was a delivery issue they took care of right away.

    You can say a lot of shit about all Wu members but no one has fallen as much as Cappa. The guy went from releasing a dope-ass CD with great beats, perfect mix and master, being played in radio, and rocking shows around the world to releasing CDs that sounds worst than demos 15 years ago. The fun part is he still sticks with Wu and do shows with 'em.

    Is he really that broke that he can't pay for a decent studio and engineer? Some on this thread said Cappa's talented and still can write but to be honest I can't recollect any of his dope verse for the last few years. Maybe if I'd think more I'd find like 2 or 3 tracks but that's all.

    I am guessing he probably ran through all of that 90's and 2000's Wu Tang money and never saved a dime and now he is suffering for it. That period of exile from Wu Tang probably did not help either until he eventually had to come crawling back to Rza

    Cappa’s a real G...... He’s never really got any help from the clan (so far as music/money is concerned). Whatever he’s been able to achieve, he’s pretty much done on his own.

    What does that mean? He got publishing money for his work. They put him on as a Wu member after the group was already established, they didn't have to do that at all.

    He got a ridiculous advance for The Pillage, spent it all, and wanted more money from RZA, who fired him, and then he came back when he'd had enough of driving a cab.

    Yeah, Cappa seems to be a cool and laid-back guy but he also acts like a typical guy who doesn't know how to handle his money and mentally is still in the hood. If he had invested the Wu money right he'd be living off it now easily.

    I'm not sure about all the details, I'm just assuming on what I know about Cappa or what I've heard about his situation eg...(On the Pillage there was pretty much zero clan features 2. Dude was forced to drive cabs for a living to support his family). Based on that I reckon the clan didn't really support Cappa either financially or musically? But don't quote me on that it's just my personal opinion!

    Cappadonna has a lot of features on Wu members solo albums and The Pillage did pretty good back in the day. I don’t know the Clans hustle regarding royalties, cutting the cake and such, but he should be doing pretty good. I don’t really care that much to be honest. It’s just a shame he doesn’t drop quality music no more
