The Wu, perhaps a little hungry to stay ahead of the hype in any way possible, continues on the quest for the marketer’s new edge on the music industry. With all the buzz about the one-album-only concept surrounding their upcoming release of Once Upon a Time in Shaolin, it’s not surprising A Better Tomorrow, their twentieth anniversary album, would […]

A gift from the inter webs and a soda company flush with marketing dollars, Complex Music and Dr. Pepper joined to drop some new sounds from the RZA.
