Ghostface Killah has recalled the time JAY-Z reminded Wu-Tang Clan about the $500 dollars they owed him.

The Staten Island legend stopped by Million Dollaz Worth of Game earlier this month and recalled the time Hova came calling for money he was owed.

Reminiscing about the early days of Wu, Ghostface Killah began: “One time, RZA and [GZA] were telling me that Hov was on the list with us to do a show or whatever. We gave him some time … Long story short, n-ggas ain’t pay him the money.

“You know how Hov is. He wait. A few years down the line, and bring it up to one of the n-ggas. Like, ‘Yeah, remember that time you ain’t really pay me?'”

Pretty Toney and co-hosts Gillie Da Kid and Wallace Peeples then laughed about the now-billionaire never forgetting a debt.

The unpaid debt isn’t the only connection between JAY-Z and Wu-Tang Clan.

Last year, RZA sat down with Rolling Stone and shared a story about his influence on a young Hov.

“I think that what I did was necessary. I think that it was ordained,” he said. “One day, JAY-Z told me, ‘Yo, I got [the idea for] The Blueprint from you.’”

He continued: “At that time, I was headed to Hollywood already. Now, here’s a path, here’s a way it can work. And it continued to work in different regions of the country and with different crews.”

Perhaps one reason why Ghostface Killah, RZA and Wu-Tang feel so strongly about JAY-Z is because they remind each other of a bygone era.

Last month, Ghost spoke with Rolling Stone about how he didn’t think today’s rappers knew about the art of storytelling.

“I don’t hear n-ggas doing storytelling no more, man,” he said. “There might be Nas. You might still got [Slick] Rick out there doing it … Raekwon, [GZA]. A lot of stuff be regular darts, regular raps. Everything with this new generation is about clubs.”

He continued: “A lot of pussy getting thrown around and shit. It ain’t like with MC Lyte. Even when Lil’ Kim did it, she was gangsta with it. She was a rapper’s rapper. … But the Lauryn Hills of this shit [are] gone.

“Even the Foxys and shit like that, like a lag came over it. But all this other ‘lick my ass,’ ‘my butthole brown’ shit, it’s like … it’s too much.”
