Wu-Tang Clan Release Official Statement Regarding 88-Year Rule On 'Once Upon A Time In Shaolin' Album

Yesterday Method Man had vented his frustration about the “88-year haitus rule” on Wu-Tang Clan’s $5 million, one-of-a-kind album ‘Once Upon A Time In Shaolin‘ after XXL had recently enlightened him of the rule. RZA responded via Twitter to clarify the situation to both XXL and Meth, and had a few extra things to say since: “Y’all misinformed homies better go roll that ‘shhh’ light that ‘shhh’ and smoke that ‘shhh’ and calm down. Y’all falling for the pork in the bun.” He adds, “A lot of you are not listening to what is already in front of you. This has always been a single album concept. No surprises. New idea. FYI. Method Man was misinformed by XXL and you guys are riding a wave into rocks. Do the knowledge before you speak” Following this, a formal statement about the situation was issued by Wu-Tang Clan; read it below:

The situation sounds like it’s getting a bit complicated, maybe the whole $5 million album thing sounded better than it really turned out to be.
