2007 marked a
comeback of a very important group not just within the
Wu-Tang family trees, or VA hip-hop scene but also for
hip-hop in general. Myalansky the backbone and original
founder of the Wu-Tang affiliated group Wu-Syndicate made
some headlines when he lyrically attacked his former rhyme
partner Napoleon, No one was sure what was happening, and
followed that up by genially giving back to the fans with an
exclusive Wu-International release in the form of a free
download of the highly sort after mixtape that has been out
of print for a while “The Syndicate Is Back”. Fans have
forever been waiting for another Wu-Syndicate (Joe Mafia and
Myalansky) album ever since they grazed The RZA Presents
Wu-Tang Killa Beez “Swarm” compilation and went platinum
with the unsullied “Where Was Heaven” and their classic
album.
With demand for a new album from the group and that of
Myalansky, the wait is over, firstly Myalansky drops his
first solo album “Drastic Measurez” which contains the
already familiar hot single “Only Heaven Knows” and 9 new
hot songs with productions mainly handled by Jon Vegaz for
Capitol V Productionz/Traksmithz and Dj Sean. This album is
currently available for digital download and can be bought
directly from Myalansky’s myspace page
http://www.myspace.com/myalansky757 via paypal;
a physical copy will be available at a later date.
Still to come by end of this year is the long awaited
Wu-Syndicate seconds début album with Joe Mafia and
Myalansky on board on “Grimlenz”. When asked, Myalansky
breaks down the meaning of the title of the album "Grimlenz
which means over the years through our eyes things have been
"Grim" or in other words ugly, take a look at the 911
situation... The Middle East situation, Wu-Tang, economy
recession, crime tales and politics. Even in the hood, it
has gotten harder for people to eat so thru the lenz things
have been Grim.” What more can be expected from hip-hops
finest when it comes to story telling grim hip-hop? Grimlenz
drops soon, stay tuned at Wu-International for more updates,
for now support the new album by buying it, recommended and
endorsed by Wu-International.

Wu-Tang Clan
Launch New Shoe With Fila |
Wu-Tang Clan have
re-teamed with sports brand Fila to launch a new style of
footwear.
The Gravel Pit stars have designed the new Wu-Tang
Weathertech boot - their second collaboration with Fila
bosses since the special edition C.R.E.A.M. shoe, which was
released in 2007.
Wu-Tang Clan business partner and executive producer Oliver
'Power' Grant says, "The partnership with Fila began during
our early days and our latest product represents the ongoing
mutual respect we have for the brand today."
The new Weathertech shoe is based on the classic Fila boot
style and the group is hoping to have the footwear in stores
in time for Christmas. |

Launch New Shoe With Fila |

Even
with an extensive winter tour set to begin at the end of the
month, the members of Wu-Tang seem to have no problems
finding some extra time to embark on personal endeavors,
especially in the category of sequels. Following in the
footsteps of Method Man’s intentions to “get high” again,
fellow bandmate Raekwon has announced plans for a sequel to
his 1995 acclaimed debut album, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx…
Speaking in a recent interview with Hip Hop Official, the
New York rapper revealed that Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II,
his first solo effort in nearly five years, will likely see
release in early March. “I’m taking my time, and I’m doing
this for the people, not for me,” Raekwon went on to
explain. So what should one expect to hear on the sequel now
13 years in the making? In addition to appearances from
members of his main outfit, Raekwon has also reportedly
tapped Busta Rhymes and Travis Barker for guest spots, while
RZA, Dr. Dre, DJ Scratch, Marley Marl, Scram Jones, Pete
Rock and the late J-Dilla are said to have shared their
production talents. Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II will be
released through the rapper’s personal label, Icewater
Records.
No word if Raekwon’s recent cover of “Give It To Me Baby”
will be included, but one can always dream…

9th
Prince Interview

 |

9th Prince has
also dropped a new video for the track "Bottomline" off his
forthcoming album, "Prince of New York" in stores November
11th. Produced by William Cooper Booth (of Black Market
Militia), the track has that classic gritty underground
sound that catapulted the Wu-Tang Clan to stardom in the
early '90s.
Accompanied by a stunning visual rendition of the "James
Bond-style intro" 9th Prince raps over sultry female
silhouettes, guns, fire and the city that raised him. Just
like his brother RZA, and the Wu-Tang Clan, 9th reps Staten
Island to the fullest with a stripped-down style reminiscent
of early 90's golden age hip-hop. There's no doubling of his
vocals, no club scenes with strobe lights... just old-school
hip-hop, spit hard over a straight head-nodder.
WATCH "BOTTOMLINE" NOW!

The RZA and
Samuel L. Jackson Sign on for Last Dragon Remake |
Props: Allhiphop |
Berry Gordy’s The Last Dragon will receive an upgrade from
Samuel L. Jackson and Wu-Tang Clan rapper/producer RZA.
Jackson is preparing to star in a remake of the 1985 cult
classic. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the
entertainer will play “Sho'nuff, the Shogun of Harlem,” a
role played by the late Julius Carry in the original film.
For Jackson, the chance to portray the iconic villain was
too good to pass up.
"I'm a huge fan of the original and look forward to bringing
Sho'Nuff into the 21st century," he said. Released in March
1985, the original version of The Last Dragon starred Taimak
as Leroy Green, a martial arts student and avid fan of
legendary martial artist Bruce Lee. In addition to Carry and
Taimak the film’s supporting cast included Carl Anthony
Payne II, William H. Macy, Keisha Knight-Pulliam and
then-Prince protégé Vanity as Leroy’s love interest, TV
music video host Laura Charles. Although critics panned The
Last Dragon, it went on to gross nearly $26 million at the
box office and has become a cult classic among movie
watchers.
The film’s soundtrack featured the hit DeBarge song “Rhythm
of the Night” as well. The Last Dragon also influenced
various rappers as Busta Rhymes, Nas, WC, Lupe Fiasco and
Fabolous reference it in songs and music videos.
The new version of the film will follow the original, as it
revolves around Leroy’s quest to achieve the highest level
of martial arts accomplishment, known as the Last Dragon.
Those who achieve the high ranking possess the Glow, which
makes them the greatest fighter alive. While Jackson appears
in front of the camera for The Last Dragon, the RZA will
work behind the scenes as a co-producer on the Columbia
Pictures remake with Dallas Jackson, John Davis of Davis
Entertainment and Berry Gordy's son Kerry Gordy.
Jackson, who currently shares the screen with Kerry
Washington in the recently released feature Lakeview
Terrace, will also write the screenplay for the feature. The
Last Dragon update will coincide with the 50th anniversary
of Berry Gordy’s Motown Records next year.

Dom Pachino aka
P.R. Terrorist - The Power Ruler Interview |
|
 |
|
Killarmy
was one the first groups to come out of the Wu camp in 1996
with their debut album
Silent
Weapons for Quiet Wars. The six men crew introduced the
masses to a new militant style in hip-hop. Then in 1998 they
dropped their sophomore effort
Dirty
Weaponry and finally on September 11th 2001 they
released the controversial
Fair, Love
and War. All three albums were praised by the fans and
the critics, but unfortunately some internal problems within
the group prevented the group from working together again.
Not wanting to sit back and let his talent go to waste Dom
Pachino decided to take matter into his own hands. In a
little more than 2 years he put out three underground highly
sort after albums,
Tera Iz
Him,
Unreleased,
Domination
and strings of side projects and compilations on his own
label Napalm Recordings.
With last years
Rice &
Beanz
still buzzing in the streets, a lot have happened in P's
life, he has reunited with his long time partner and
Killarmy brother 9th Prince, his Napalm label is constantly
expanding into different ventures and forums, prospect of a
new Killarmy album looks very promising and even a proposed
collabo album between him and Shyheim, it is evident P is
still the hardest working talented man in the game.
Before jetting off to Brazil for a tour, P sits down with
Wu-International again to talk about his new album
Power Rulez
(dropping November 11th), Killarmy, his relationship with
Wu-Tang, Napalm and everything else that the fans have been

9th Prince
Re-releases Prince Of New York" For Retail With 6 Bonus Cuts
|
 |
The
Wu-Tang tradition of cutting edge lyricism and
soul-inflected beats gets a shot of adrenaline with the
first time ever widespread release of 9th Prince's classic:
Killarmy presents...9th Prince:
Prince of New
York. A member of the renowned collective Killarmy
(450,000+ cumulative units scanned) and brother to Wu-Tang
legend and impresario The RZA, "Prince of New York" is a
reflection of The Wu-Tang Clan's indelible stamp on the
development and evolution of hip-hop music and culture.
Armed with brash lyrics and a
self-proclaimed "Granddaddy
Flow", 9th Prince enlists the services of his fellow
Killarmy brothers Islord, Beretta 9 (Kinetic), along
with Trife Da God & more to craft an album already being
hailed as the modern day follow-up to the Wu-Tang Clan's
classic double platinum debut 36 Chambers. |
|
Including 6 never
before heard bonus tracks (featuring an appearance from none
other than Wu-Tang's own Masta Killa), "Prince
of New York" demonstrates that 9th Prince has cultivated
a style with a soul of its own, the successive chapter in
the continually evolving Wu-Tang &
Killarmy dynasty. |

The Syndicate (Myalansky
and Joe Mafia) formally known as Wu-Syndicate has
exclusively joined forces with Wu-International to released
the highly sort after, rare, and out of print classic
mixtape "The
Syndicate Is Back" for free download to the fans due to
popular demand.
This classic mixtape
was released on the streets in 2007 to mark the return of
Myalansky and Joe Mafia, who have been on a musical hiatus
for a some of years since they debuted on the chart with
their self titled album in 1999 on Wu-Tang records. The
mixtape is jam packed with great beats, ingenious rhymes and
original story line, nothing less expected from the duo.
Check Myalansky and Mafia trading ill verses on "Jooks" and
"The Interview" covers a personal account of the reasons the
group stop making music for while and history behind it.
Another favorite is "12 or 6" which sees Mya addressing what
it takes to lock him lyrically or in person, songs is a
straight up mic slaughter on this. Wu-Tang fans would
rejoice to see a reunion of The syndicates with Raekwon on
"Wig Splash". |

The mixtape show cases
the groups versatility, and hunger, still proving to be a relevant force in the
game, it is no wonder the limited amount pressed up were
sold out quick on the streets leaving the Wu-nerds or online
fans searching hard for it over a year.
With e-mails pouring constantly at Wu-International, it was
only right to push for this, with the group currently
working on a new album and Myalansky working on his solo
project "Drastic Measure" expected end of year or early next
year, Mya wanted to give something back to the fans as a
thank you for still listening, for all the emails sent
enquiring for the group so the group has sent the full
mixtape exclusively to Wu-Int as a free download to the
fans, click on the link below or the mixtape cover to
