Interview: 1-2-1 with The RZA


The RZA, legendary hip-hop producer and one of the few men who can pull off a fedora, recently sat down for a twenty minute interview that’s very enlightening even if you’ve read The Tao of Wu while listening to 36 Chambers on RZA’s branded headphones.

If your idea of long-term planning is deciding between Playstation and Xbox, listen as RZA describes how he steered the Wu Tang Clan from the slums of Shaolin to the global stage in five years. In between dropping steady bombs of wisdom, RZA also outlines his favorite Wu albums, lyrics and briefly mentions his directorial debut. Not bad for a guy who got his start selling socks.

Watch both segments below:

RZA interview with Conan (Video)

RZA appeared on Conan to promote “Californication” (on which he appears this season) and his RZA app. I’m a fan of RZA in these kinda roles (mainly Funny People) but this season needs to pick up the pace. Last episode was promising though.

RZA, Run DMC's Rev Run, DJ Khaled & more share stories for BMI's "How I Wrote That Song"


RZA talks about Wu Tang Clan's "C.R.E.A.M." and Method Man's "I'll Be There for You/You're All I Need to Get By" while Rev Run and others share stories about their most successful tracks for BMI's "How I Wrote That Song."

This weekend, several songwriters and musicians linked up to share stories that inspired their art. RZA, Run DMC’s Rev Run, DJ Khaled, Red One and Joel and Benji Madden were selected to be on this year’s panel and each shared personal stories about some of their more successful songs.

When “C.R.E.A.M.” blasted through the speakers at the Key Club venue where BMI held this event, RZA nodded his head to the beat before explaining how the Wu’s debut was an outlet for each member to escape the perils of streets.

“Our refuge would be the studio and my house was the studio,” he shared. “No matter how much trouble we did in the world, we would come together to make songs. [With 1993’s Enter the Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers], that was all of my homies from the neighborhood, finding a place to escape from the hells of the neighborhood and we would get together to make songs.”

He also explained the story behind Method Man’s Mary J. Blige-assisted “I’ll Be There For You/You’re All I Need To Get By,” a cut Meth originally did not want to do. According to RZA, Meth refused to make the song a single until he was given a car and a Mary J. Blige placement.

“Method Man, at the time, was considered the most hardest emcee in the game," RZA noted. "He had a song called ‘Bring the Pain.’ He’s 6’4” and in my neighborhood, he would walk around with the biggest gun you’ve ever seen. So, he did not want to be a pretty boy or a type of boy that girls liked, you know what I mean? I remember we did this song in my basement and I kind of forced him to do the song…We had to promise to buy him a new car and get Mary J. Blige to do the hook in order for this to be the single. It turned out this song became maybe a double platinum seller for him. Him and Mary won a Grammy [that] year.”

Other artists on the panel also had personal stories to share. Among other things, DJ Khaled explained stories about his "anthematic" tracks, saying it has sometimes taken him many months to track artists down for songs. He noted that persistence allowed him to succeed and said "no one" would outwork him.
