Back in ‘08, I had a 8th grade English teacher who was an Irish man and a DIEHARD Wu Tang fan. He found way to reference them in dam near every lecture lol.

Rza: In every circle there is a greatest Knowah (Knower), just like in the Bible, Noah was the greatest Knowah. And Noah was able to warn and therefore lead people out of the dangerous situation. Rza just has a lot of wisdom, people seem to get caught up in his actual achievements but his perspective on life, the way he articulates that perspective...its uncanny. PEACE from BK!!

When Rza speaks he reminds me of Tupac, Immortal Technique, Lupe Fiasco, very knowledgable,articulate and so informed around the world to say the very least. Wish more people were like that including myself.
When you think about it you realize that 2 pac accomplished so many things and had such a revolutionary mind and he was just a 25 year old kid!! Simply amazing!! I remember when I was 15-16 he was a man to me. Now being a 40 year old man I realize Wow!! He had power and could have changed the world and He was just a kid!!

Kali Pooh ok..... I guess you don’t know Tupac. Revolutionary maybe one of the most used adjectives to describe Tupac.
I live right near his old home, forever a Shaolin native, raised here and it was the Rza and the Wu who parented me as a young man. I never met Rza, but met most of the clan. Love this man.
Love his take on the new rappers and saying give them time to evolve. Hopefully they’ll be around long enough to be able to evolve.... but sadly most won’t get that chance.
I could listen to RZA talk forever.
🙌🏼 fan since 93 love these gentlemen 👏
Ghostface.. theres a lot of us that feel you have a timeless legacy. We will love it as long as u hit the right promo sources, we're gonna know support.
Yo RZA's Ghostface voice was just right.
i wish I had that "naive to resistance" mentality. The Abbott always dropping gems.
The best interview I've seen all year! Perfect example of what one creative mine and an open door can continuously produce.

34:50 Yo It's so dope how he was explaining his convo with YDB. On that fact that he's not just making a child but your making single parent homes. And me and my homie was just talking about how the single parent homes were the government is the acting baby daddy supporting these environments are the most chaotic. Because these moms can't teach young men how to be man and than these young men go off into the streets which continues the misguidance which may have or may not have started at home. Also this effects the young ladies as well because it is good for a young lady to have a wise counsel as they grow with there fathers it helps strengthens character, builds confidence and can bring assurance in their life that they have someone they can turn too in a time oh need, Instead of turning too someone who may not have their best interests in mind. This is a domino effect that does effect all involved and in most sad cases even the innocent who weren't. Dope interview.

This interview is inspirational and filled with such wisdom from the RZA. I could listen to RZA all day. So knowledgeable is the RZA. Just a lot of wisdom and positive energy in this interview.
Rza always dropping gems, I watched the whole interview
I miss the good old days. Some of the best Hip Hop and R&B barely went Platinum or even Gold for that matter. Nevertheless still classic and influential, and everyone (in the culture) knew their name.
Thank you for this interview, Rza has always been a teacher, a poet and a gentleman 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
