Wu-Tang Clan is commemorating 25 years of their double-disc opus Wu-Tang Forever with a special anniversary collection.

Get On Down and Legacy Recordings announced that fans can expect the anniversary collection to feature a lyric booklet, a silver-colored 7-inch single of “Triumph” and “Heaterz” on the B-side with a picture sleeve and, finally, a reissue of the double cassette complete with a slip case. Wu-Tang Clan also delivered the EPs Reunited — The Remixes, It’s Yourz and Triumph which include remixes, edits, instrumentals and unarchived cover art for the singles.

In addition, Wu-Tang Clan released the first episode of their upcoming new series filled with unearthed video interviews from 1997. The show will hear the group talk about “their history, their lives, their inspiration, who they were listening to and what Triumph and the Wu-Tang meant to them” as they took a break from filming their “Triumph” video.

The Wu-Tang Forever 25th anniversary collection is available now for pre-order on the Get On Down webstore.

Elsewhere in music, Eminem, Dolly Parton and more will be inducted into the 2022 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
