WU-TANG x ENTER THE DUBSTEP

It was only a matter of time before an actual collab happened between a major rapper(s) and the dubstep world.

"The project serves a double purpose as well: many of the pioneers and practitioners (DJ’s and producers) in the Dubstep world came up in a time when Wu-Tang ruled the international airwaves. Unlike much commercial hip-hop, the immediacy of Wu-Tang’s sound spoke to many outside of the scope of the typical hip-hop fan, across oceans and at home. Their music and stylehelped to shape an emerging artform that hadn’t yet defined itself. Now, in 2009, as dubstep continues to grow, expand and encompass more styles and subgenres, the Wu-Tang sound is reintroduced into the mix, to spawn a new and unique musical crossbreeding, that is greater than the sum of its constituent parts."

Some dubstep producers involved are Trillbass, DZ, Datsik, and Stenchman working with of course the RZA, GZA, Raekwon, Method Man, etc. etc. with guest spots from MF Doom, Busta Rhymes, and Three 6 Mafia. I don't really know how I feel about this, but as far as I'm concerned Wu-Tang doesn't waste time on bullshit and the producers they've worked with are solid in my book.

The release is set for November. This is a big step for dubstep, at least in America.
