ITW Achozen



Shavo parle d'Achozen (RZA, shavo, Rev. William Burk & Berreta 9)

You gravitated to a certain kind of sound and energy?

Yeah, an energy, always doing something to the left. What I’m doing with Achozen is like what we did with System: Put a twist on rock, now putting a twist on hip-hop. It doesn’t matter that my skin is white, and it doesn’t matter that I come from the rock world. I’ve got the coolest people backing me – George Clinton, RZA. We have 29 songs now.
RZA came from a clique, and I came from a clique, and we connected really strongly. It’s like, “Many will come, but only a few are a-chosen.” That’s where the name Achozen came from. It’s the five percent elite, who use their power to make music to guide, to lead, in a righteous way. We always have a good time hanging out together.

What does hip-hop have in common with hard rock?

The stuff that I love about is the punk-rockness of it. I mean an attitude. Punk rock is an attitude. It’s not giving a fuck and doing it anyways. I think that I can do something, and I’m doing it. [RZA] doesn’t care. He comes from Wu-Tang and he’s picking up a guitar and he’s ripping it, for himself. He’s reinventing things.

Sounds like you’re not taking it easy during his hiatus period.

Now that we’re in this hiatus moment, I’m doing whatever I want to do. I’ll score a film because I can; I’ll start a band with my friend the RZA because I want to. Why not? I want to give this opportunity to other people, and that’s why I’m doing urSESSION, so other people get a chance to do what they want.

What does your music with the RZA sound like?


It’s hip-hop, it’s heavy, it’s me doing all the beats. The Gravediggaz inspired me – but done with the new sounds, with a heavy-metal spice of song arrangement. And I’m playing sitars on them, and bouzoukis on them, and guitar.

Shyheim parle du beef avec Raekwon (Diss part. V)

Sean C. & LV expliquent leur collab' avec ghost

Sean C. & LV sont les 2 producteurs majeurs du dernier album de Ghost "Big Doe Rehab". Ils ont aussi produit 6 track de l'album de Jay-z "American Gangster".
Dans un ITW sur HipHopGame ils comparent leur travail sur les 2 albums et les différences entre les 2 artistes.


"Of course Ghostface and Jay-Z are two different albums. Ghost was on the road a lot. A lot of times we were working in the studio without him because he was travelling a lot, but we would stay on the phone with him and get ideas and send it to him on the road and he would say if he liked it or if he didn’t. He’s one of those guys where if he hears a track a certain way, he’s just kind of married to it. When you’re making changes it makes you nervous if he’s married to a different sound of it. But we worked on his last album too. In this case, we would make changes and we would send it to him and he would tell us it was hot and to leave it like that. So that was the difference between working with Jay and working with Ghost."

Pour l'instant il n'y a que 2 dates annoncées pour la tournée de RZA en Europe:

May 1st - Futuresonic Urban Festival - Manchester, UK

D'autres dates seront annoncées prochainement.

Digi Snake est fini



Dans un récent ITW RZA a annoncé que son nouvel album "Digi Snakes" est fini:

"RZA announces that the whole ‘Digi Snacks‘ album is finished but put to the side for the release of 8 Diagrams (the goes same for OB4CL2). Bobby has matured allot on the album. This will be showcased by writing of the songs, which has gotten better according to RZA. There is a really beautiful song on Digi Snacks that’s called ‘Drama‘ which has an incredible chorus and Bobby tells people how to make their lives better. That one feels like a hit-record. But there is also tracks like ‘My Lovin’ Is Digi Pt.2‘ where he just talks shit; “my dick is hard” - that’s that Bobby Digital shit."

Autres éléments de l'ITW:

  • RZA says that his favourite Wu-Tang album is ‘Return To The 36 Chambers,’ there is no other album that provides so much joy. It’s a true piece of art.

  • In 1997 RZA found a book on music-theory which started his translation from hip-hop producer to musician. The first beats he made after reading this book were ‘It’s Yourz‘ and ‘Triumph.’

  • RZA says that Ghostface has a very good ear for music and that he is 100% sure that if he just learned how to use a sampler he would never have to work with a producer again. He also says that INS is the only one in the Clan that learned how to make beats and that ”He actually done a couple beats that are quite interesting.”

  • RZA gives a prediction that Young DB (ODB’s son) will have a hit-record on top of the charts in 2 years. And it will be a real song-song that people can sing along to. “That’s my first priority when 8 Diagrams is over; Young Dirty Bastard - he is wild, seventeen years old but just like his father. If he just can keep his health.”

Peter Rock voudrait suivre la même voie que RZA à Hollywood


"I will always do something in music. Anything that I am able to do professionally in music I will pursue it. One of the things I really want to get into scoring movies. I dibbled and dabbled in it but I really would like to get into it in a serious way especially since I seen how RZA capitalized on the scoring thing with Kill Bill and Blade and all that. I would like to deal with action movies, superhero movies, and gangster movies. Gangster shit and superhero shit in particular. I’m real into the superhero thing big time. I been into them since I was a kid, so I would love to be part of one of them. I like a lot of the movies they’ve been making and they’ve been coming out with a lot of them lately so I’m really gung ho about getting into it now."

Vente d'8 Diagrams en France (MAJ : 9eme sem)

Le classement français de l'album est plutot une bonne surprise :

1ere sem # 84 :: Wu-Tang "8 Diagrams" ::
2eme sem # 114 :: Wu-Tang "8 Diagrams" ::
3eme sem # 97 :: Wu-Tang "8 Diagrams" ::
4eme sem # 98 :: Wu-Tang "8 Diagrams" ::
5eme sem # 98 :: Wu-Tang "8 Diagrams" ::
6eme sem # 141 :: Wu-Tang "8 Diagrams" ::
7eme sem # 177 :: Wu-Tang "8 Diagrams" ::
8eme sem # 190 :: Wu-Tang "8 Diagrams" ::
9eme sem # 196 :: Wu-Tang "8 Diagrams" ::

Logiquement cette 8eme semaine est la dernière pour le Wu! 8 Diagrams sera donc resté dans le top 200 France 8 semaines et aura vendu environ 12 000 albums. C'est mieu que le précedent "Iron Flag".

Edit : Finalement le Wu m'a fait mentir. Le crew de Shaolin se paye une 9eme semaine dans le top 200 français. C'est 4 semaines de plus que "Iron Flag", et ça se rapproche de "The Wu" avec juste 2 semaines en moins.
En comptant cette 9eme semaine le Wu a vendu 12 100 albums dans l'hexagone.
----- ----- -----
Pour information, voici le récapitulatif du classement Top 200 français des précédents albums du Wu-Tang :

- "Wu-Tang Forever" [24/05/1997] (14 semaines, #8)
- "The W" [25/11/2000] (11 semaines, #11)
- "Iron Flag" [22/12/2001] (5 semaines, #61)
- "Disciple Of The 36 Chambers" [17/10/2004] (3 semaines, #37)
- "8 Diagrams" [10/12/2007] (9 semaines, #84)

Musique de film réutilisé (Street Kings)

Le trailer du film "Street Kings" utilise le son de la B.O. d'un autre film, chose assez étonnante.
Dans cette bande annonce on peut donc entendre le son de RZA "Fatal" présent dans la soundtrack de "Blade : Trinity"



Le film est réalisé par David Ayer et co-écrit par ce dernier et James Ellroy.

Résumé du film :
Un flic de Los Angeles, qui survit tant bien que mal après la mort de sa femme, se voit impliqué dans l'exécution d'un collègue officier. Il est contraint d'aller à l'encontre de la culture policière dans laquelle il a baigné durant toute sa carrière afin de trouver les véritables coupables.

"Book Of Shabazz was more like a compilation of your previous singles and Passion Of The Hood Christ was a street album, so can we expect a "real" album with a concept and everything in the next time?
Yes Sir! Shabazz The Disciple has never released a DEBUT album,those were just songs i let go to let you know i'm still holding. There will be a CRAZY DEBUT ALBUM from me soon!"

Roland MV-8800 - Serie limité

Guitar Center RZA et Bruce Forat se sont associés pour produire un serie limité de la boite à rythme Roland MV-8800, à l'occasion de la sortie d'8 Diagrams.
Le série sera limité à 8 exemplaires. Le design sera directement inspiré d'8 Diagrams, de plus il sera inclu un tutoriel fait pas RZA lui meme.
Chaque machine coutera 5 999 $. Elles seront mises en vente le 28 février prochain

"To commemorate the legacy of the Wu-Tang Clan, Guitar Center has teamed up with Wu frontman RZA , and legendary electronic pioneer Bruce Forat to release a series of limited edition Roland MV-8800 drum machines–8 units to be exact. With such a small quantity being produced, these babies aren’t gonna come cheap. At a hefty price of $5,999, each unit comes complete with Forat customizations, including a custom paint job inspired by Wu’s “8 Diagrams” album, and a private tutorial session with RZA himself. I know the “limited-edition” title gets thrown around quite a bit these days, but for the tutorial session alone, this collaboration certainly earns it! Look for it in stores this month. Couple page scans from the latest Guitar Center mailer after the jump."

Article dans The Times Online à propos des problèmes internes (Rae, GFK, GZA...)

"Fifteen years after they shook not just rap, but pop music as a whole, to its roots with their singular mix of kung-fu mysticism, gangster poetry and spooky beats, the Clan should be buoyant. They have just released 8 Diagrams in the US, their first album as a group in six years and the first since losing Ol' Dirty Bastard (aka ODB), their most notorious and flamboyant member, to heart failure in 2004.[...]"

RZA dans "Repossession Mambo"


RZA devrait rejoindre les acteurs Forest Whitaker et Jude Law dans le film "Repossession Mambo", un thriller futuriste dans une société où des organes sont vendu à credit.


"RZA’s character is one of the in-debt characters in the flick, and he tried to explain his imperiled character to us. “What was my name in that movie?” he laughed. “That’s one thing I like about movies — you can walk away and forget your name.” What he’ll never forget, however, is the screwed-up circumstances that occur when the organ repo man tries to take his character’s innards. “[I love] what happens to the guy who tries to do it,” he laughed. “It’s funny what happens; it’s really funny. But I don’t want to ruin it.”"

Nouvel ITW du Rugged Child


Shy répond aux questions du site Hiphopdx.

"In 1994, the then 14-year old emcee Shyheim the Manchild had a major record deal, several television placements and had already touched mics with the best of the best, including 2Pac, Notorious B.I.G. and Big Daddy Kane. The young man was a product of the pre-Rudy era of New York, cursing, swearing, and growling into the mic, arguably before his voice dropped. Shyheim was a prodigy far different than what rap witnessed in Lil Bow Wow or even B.G. From a lost era, with a lost story, Shyheim was deemed fitting for a HipHopDX "Where the Hell Have You Been?" feature.[...]"
