Wow, that "fukk Hot97" shyt :snoop:

shyt was like a poster for "Keeping it real goes wrong."

It's like breh, the one thing you don't want to lose is radio play.

Got to think of the long term, which is what RZA always was doing. They also did RZA's brother dirty too.

Rah Rah Rah and dissing with a bunch of "I love you" at the end. Wu at it's best.

What's the deal with Power & Rae, these days? He hustled with Power (and Divine from now what it seems), but it appears their relationship is strained.

RZA really keeps these people togeher

Inaccurate. None of them sued to get out of their contracts and the only one that sued for money owed was Ghostface.

Again...common sense would tell you RZA wasn't doing them dirty. There's no way in hell the members believe that and continue to work with him.

But does common sense apply to the Wu lmao? These dudes left a lucrative major tour and lost a major endorsement for no logical reason. They spent years not properly utilizing the brand to make money. RZA was the first member to really eat in the super lucrative Europe tour scene while the others sat around doing nothing for years before doing that. They missed various other opportunities as well. Making good decisions isn't their strong suit...so still hanging with a guy who allegedly jerked them would definitely be something they'd do.

I hear you Piff, but what are the allegations? U-God said he was gonna sue and called RZA a devil then swiftly admitted he did it as a publicity stunt. 2 of them publicly said RZA never jerked them, Meth and Rae. And RZA let mostly all of them (except Dirty) out of their contracts under little duress, something that you NEVER see in music, especially considering most of them were gold and platinum artists and he did it when Wu was still popping!

I know alot of them made stupid business moves before but I really can't see how anyone can say RZA been jerking them.

I feel you and agree overall but at the same time when I hear someone say "it's business, I learned that" the feeling I get is that person realizes they got jerked because their mind wasn't right...and it won't happen again. Rae been making moves on his own, Deck been very successful with the Czarface thing, Ghost been doing his thing, Meth still in Hollywood+HBO, U God got a best selling book. They seem to have realized it's time to make money for themselves. And they aren't mad at RZA.

They're all on a successful tour right now too. There's still time to make a lot of money.

Egos, bad business decisions, and Rza’s production downtown is what brought the group down. Now in 2019 they still make touring money they all but need to get back on that merch game. Once the official movie drop they all should have their merch game correct. fukk the states, lockdown Europe and Asia.
