Wu-Tang Clan

Wu-Tang Clan is a legendary hip-hop collective formed in Staten Island, New York in 1992, comprising RZA, GZA, Method Man, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Inspectah Deck, U-God, Masta Killa, and Cappadonna. Their seminal 1993 debut album 'Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)' revitalized East Coast hip-hop and is widely considered one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time. The group pioneered an unprecedented business model allowing members to pursue solo deals with different labels while maintaining collective identity, permanently changing how artists negotiate ownership in the music industry.
