Hip-hop music was forever changed when
Wu-Tang Clan released their first album
Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) in 1993. Their follow up album
Wu-Tang Forever was released in 1997 and it further sealed their place as one of the best hip-hop groups of all time. The members of the Clan all took different paths in life, but
GZA stuck to music. In fact, he has recorded 6 full length albums of his own, some of them were even recorded during the height of his Wu-Tang fame. He has been deemed to have the second largest vocabulary in hip-hop music and he has spent a lot of time advocating for science education for the underprivileged in New York City. He even occasionally tours and if you're lucky enough to hear about it, you might be able to catch this legend live and in person.
GZA is coming to
El Club to perform this
Wednesday March 1st. He will be taking to the stage alongside
Meyhem Lauren, another New York based hip hop artist. Tickets to attend the show are $25 in advance and they can be purchased
here. You can also win a pair or tickets to the show courtesy of
Party Store Productions, one of Detroit's hippest booking houses. If you would like to enter to win, please email your full name to hipindetroit@gmail.com with the subject line #36chambers. We will draw one lucky person tomorrow morning and they will get to see the GZA live and in person on Detroit's best sound system!
