Mass Appeal Records/36 Chambers have announced they are releasing Wu-Tang: Of Mics and Men Soundtrack on Friday, May 17. The soundtrack, which is meant to accompany the critically acclaimed Wu-Tang docuseries airing on SHOWTIME this month, includes new music, plus skits featuring never-before-heard Wu-Tang Clan stories from footage that didn’t make the documentary series’ final cut.
The project is executive produced by Mitchell Diggs and Mustafa Shaikh and features contributions from Ghostface Killah, RZA, Raekwon, Masta Killa and Cappadonna.
Wu-Tang: Of Mics and Men features the classic Wu-Tang lyricism and sound that fans of the iconic group have been yearning for. With the docuseries, Wu-Tang Clan: Of Mics and Men, setting the tone for the project, the Wu-Tang swordsmen deliver rhymes that harken back to the group’s earlier days.
“Wu-Tang Clan: Of Mics and Men is the definitive docuseries that explores and reveals our careers spanning over 25 years. The accompanying soundtrack is a great dose of some of those Men back on those Mics again,” said Wu-Tang member RZA.
Wu-Tang Clan: Of Mics and Men, the four-part limited docuseries from filmmaker Sacha Jenkins (BURN MOTHERF*CKER, BURN!), premiered part one on SHOWTIME on Friday, May 10 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Fans of the docuseries can also check out an immersive Wu-Tang Clan tribute in New York City at Dolby Soho from May 16-19 presented by SHOWTIME, along with Mass Appeal. The “WU-SEUM” at Dolby Soho is the only place fans can experience interactive Wu-Tang Clan music and clips from the SHOWTIME docuseries mastered in Dolby technologies.
