Ghostface Not Happy With Wu-Tang
More than a few heads were surprised when Ghostface announced that his new LP on Def Jam would be dropping on December 4th; the same day as the Clan's long awaited 8 Diagrams (and everyone else). According to Miss Info, there is indeed more to the story than just coincidental release dates.
It turns out that Ghost is none too happy with the Wu-Tang Clan, not the individual members, but "the hierarchy." Those named in this hierarchy were Divine, Loud Records and The RZA. He claimed that Steve Rifkin even made some phone calls to get his project pushed back. Ghost explained to MTV:
“I had December 4 for the longest, but the Wu album, brothers was kinda late on doing whatever they were doing and pushed it back … on my date. You can put this in there, I’m not [mad at] all the members. It’s not based on the members, but the hierarchy at Wu-Tang Clan is on some bullshit. They trying to **** around and make me push my album back and doing all this. But niggas ain’t ****ing around or give us money when we did them Wu-Tang tours. The first one, they paid us after a while, but this last one, niggas is holding onto a lot of money. And [they’re] upset based on that. It’s a battle right now…"
There were rumors persisting for months that Ghost hadn't appeared on any songs for the album, but we know that was put to bed when he was featured both leaked songs. But just how much did he participate?
“I got on some of them, a few of them. … Niggas better pay my ****ing money. Matter of fact, they can keep the money — just get me out of their life right now.“
