RZA Pushes Back Wu-Tang Album As Response To Ghostface

YounG AleX · 10-22-2007, 03:23 PM

RZA addressed the current internal beef between Wu-Tang and Ghostface Killah in a recent interview with MTV News.

Ghostface Killah had expressed his disappointment in the fact that his new album, Big Doe Rehab was being released on the same day as the new Wu-Tang album, 8 Diagrams, which has now been moved to December 11.

"The blame can't fall on me like that," RZA said about the dueling release dates. "Wu-Tang Clan is a bunch of brothers working on one common cause. We planned to put that record out in September, then October, and it kept getting pushed because it's just a lot of work. I wasn't really conscious [Ghost] was dropping an album on December 4th, but yesterday we moved our [group] record from the 4th to the 11th. We gave that spot to Ghostface because of how he felt. I had to make that call. [SRC label head] Steve Rifkind also; he was getting bashed up by Ghost. So...we moved."

According to RZA, Wu decided to move in an act of brotherly love.

"I think that shows the kind of bigger men we could be. Ghost is my brother, [I] love him to death. But we're in this business, and it's hard to kind of discern what's right and what's wrong. But I will say that, when it comes to a Wu-Tang Clan album, I plan on making it a 60/90 day type of schedule. It turned out to be a 200 day schedule, and I didn't want to wait until next year [to put out 8 Diagrams]. But Ghostface, we moved it to the 11th. You got that 4th. Do your thing right then, double up [the] next week, make mad cream this year, family."

At least RZA is being grown on this, Somone said this before though (maybe INS) but its a shame they couldnt just talk to the labels and have the cd's sold in the same bin on some "but both of them for $16-$20 or some shit.

I was expectin' this to happen b/c of Ghost's comments. I guess Saigon is gonna have to push his album back to the 18th now.. he should know not to come out the same day as a Ghost or a Wu album.

Ghost was right anyway. Kind of weird RZA was unaware he was planning to release his album on that date.
