Wu-Tang Clan performing at Budapest – 2015.07.07
English: “ New York City to Budapest Hip Hop brings us alltogether as one” Live on the 7th of July, 2015. Budapest Park, Budapest. Members on the concert: GZA Inspectah Deck U-God Masta Killa Cappadonna Mathematics Streetlife – GZA (Gary Grice) Formed in the East Coast (Staten Island, New York, US), the Clan was inspired by RZA's lead. Members are artists soon expanding to include Method Man, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, U-God, Masta Killa, and Inspectah Deck. Their debut release forged a new sound in hip-hop, through darkly funky soundscapes full of a sense of eerie, urban-dystopian menace which grounded their seamless, gritty vocal attack loaded with violent martial arts imagery. Achieving widespread critical acclaim and commercial success, Wu-Tang's sound became instantly recognizable which would go on to influence countless artists across genres subsequently. In 1997, Wu-Tang Clan reunited together to work on their second album, the double-disc "Wu-Tang Forever," finding huge anticipation for the release. The album went straight to number one in the charts and sold over 600,000 copies in its first week. Wu-Tang Clan became a branded franchise. Wu-Tang Clan adopted its name from the martial arts film 'Shaolin and Wu Tang'. The initial founder, member and producer of the group, referred to as RZA, describes the character's sword wielding technique as incredible and exquisite. Quickly inspired, RZA made the analogy between the sword and the tongue. Like the sword, the tongue speaks words as equally powerful and severe as the slice of a sword's blade. Thus brought the creation of the widely acknowledged Wu-Tang sword style. The assembly of the nine MCs known as RZA, GZA, Ol' Dirty Bastard, Inspectah Deck, Raekwon the Chef, U-God, Ghostface Killah and the Method Man, brought forth a team of fearless personas each as phenomenal and distinguished as the next. With a congregation of fearsome, lyrical warriors with distinct and eccentric rapping styles and techniques every member brought something new to the table. 1.
