Method Man, Ghostface Killah & Raekwon's Wu Massacre

02/24/2010
. Cosmic forces of destiny unite three mortals in world-shaking times, as Def Jam recording artists � and Wu-Tang Clan brothers-for-life � Method Man, Ghostface Killah and Raekwon join forces on WU MASSACRE, an historic collaboration that takes Wu science and theology to the next step on hip-hop's evolutionary grid. (Tentative tracklist, song titles and guest artists appear below, subject to change.)

WU MASSACRE, which arrives March 30th in the physical and digital marketplace, will be preceded by the soulful street single "Our Dreams," starring the legendary Wu-Tang Clan's three most dynamic MCs, Meth, Ghost, and Rae and produced by RZA for Wu-Tang Productions. For an added tug on the heart-strings, "Our Dreams" samples Michael Jackson's mid-'70s hit as a 17-year old, "We're Almost There."

In addition to "Our Dreams," Meth, Ghost and Rae take the trio spotlight on two more tracks: the thunderous opener "Criminology 2.5" and "Miranda." Ghost and Meth take the lead on "It's That Wu Sh*t." On the "Smooth Sailing" Remix, Ghost and Meth are joined by Solomon Childs and Streetlife. On "Gunshowers," Meth and Ghost are joined by fellow WTC rapper Inspectah Deck and Sun God. "Youngstown Heist" features Trife, Sheek and Bully.

In addition to RZA, WU MASSACRE features a number of guest producers, starting with Mathematics on "Mef vs. Chef," "Dangerous," "Miranda," and "Made Men." Scram Jones produced "Youngstown Heist" and "It's That Wu Sh*t." E Meal produced "Pimpin' Chipp." And Ty Fyffe produced the "Smooth Sailing" Remix.
