Hip Hop may have entered a new era, but the origin of the genre like its pioneers the Wu Tang Clan is forever. In honor of  Wu Tang's Warner Bros. Records deal for their sixth studio album A Better Tomorrow, the group members are back in the spotlight with a positive state of mind. This is especially true for Ghostface Killah as he recently sat down with HipHopWired.com and spoke on his excitement on the group reuniting, expectations for the upcoming album, and even addressed how he and RZA have put aside their differences.

"Me and RZA we had our thing that was even more deeper than just rifting. We ending up in the courts and all this sh-t like that," said Ghost. " So I'm not gonna keep quiet quiet quiet, but I don't gotta let the public know cause at the end of the day we still brothers"

Ghostdini went on to further explain that the two group members have a common goal which is bigger than any of the mishaps that occurred between the two in the past.

“I’m not saying that it went away 100 percent…but we try not to focus on it,” said the rapper. “At the end of the day, this Wu-Tang thing is bigger than me and him. We done created something and that's it. I just want to do my part and let him do his part. Hopefully we can put that together and drive it where it needs to be driven to."

And a better tomorrow it is instead!

Recap:: Wu Tang Brunch this past Sunday in Queens. A day dedicated toWu Tang & their music, plus Raekwon & Sun God perform!


Sunday was a packed house at Studio Square, in Astoria Queens, as fans came to show their love for REAL hip hop!

Hot 97's own DJ Big Ben was amongst a few DJ's to spin straight classics ALL day, that continued to the early night. 


The show kicked off around 6pm, as the "Killah Bees" took the stage first. Midgets in bee costumes and girls in black hooded catsuits danced to old school hip hop, before Raekwon performed a few songs, followed by Sun God, who is the son of Wu Tang member Ghostface Killah! 


         


I didn't get a chance to catch Sun God perform, but I did get the chance to meet him, and he is a very nice guy! "You look just like your Dad," was the first thing I said to him, and he very politely replied with a "thank you." This was also my first time meeting "The Chef" Raekwon, and what an honor it was. Another very nice guy, a true gentleman!


I'm hoping more events like this take place in the near future, and if so, count me in! I'm there!
