Meer over het boek
The story of the legendary hardcore rap group, told by one of its founders, musician U-GOD. The Wu-Tang style is well known for its heavy music and aggressive lyrics, which shocked and captivated the entire rap community. U-GOD shares the lessons he learned during his journey from organizing small projects on Staten Island to becoming an international superstar. What was New York like in the 1970s, 80s, and 90s for young musicians from underprivileged neighborhoods? What is it like to live in conditions where you have to hide a bulletproof vest under a fan's t-shirt? How did nine friends, each a master of their craft and each with their own role, come together in the 90s to create the legendary group known as Wu-Tang Clan? "Wu-Tang Clan. Dao," recreated in U-GOD's easily recognizable style, is simultaneously astonishing, profound, and provocative—a true spiritual confession that the world has never seen and will never see again.
