Wu-Tang’s RZA is preparing to go to W.A.R., in
the form of his new album, The World According To RZA, a long anticipated
collaboration of European and US artists.
RZA said that in recording the album, he traveled
through various European countries seeking out grass roots hip-hop artists,
giving them some of the renowned producer’s best beats.
The album, which was supposed to be released
in 2001, will also be accompanied by a companion DVD and features IAM, Saian
Supa Crew, Ghostface, Articolo 31, Dido, Petter, and Xavier Naidoo.
RZA is currently working with Metallica drummer
Lars Ulrich and is scoring the film to "Kill Bill," a new Quentin
Tarantino flick.
