Wu-Tang Clan members were guests on The Daily Show With Jon Stewart yesterday (August 6). During the interview, RZA spoke about the group, referencing the Wu’s upcoming album, A Better Tomorrow.
“We’re all striving for a better tomorrow,” RZA said. “Wu-Tang, we all have something in common with each other, a brotherhood, a respect. When we say a better tomorrow, we’re striving to make a better tomorrow for ourselves, but also to inspire a better tomorrow for the world.”
Raekwon, who reportedly had reservations about reuniting with Wu-Tang for the upcoming release, spoke on challenges the group faced when Stewart asked if the group’s challenges were creative, business or political.
“I would say it’s all of these things,” Raekwon said. “We’re trailblazers in the music business. We’re doing our job. I consider this a sport. So, I think it’s an important, as an athlete of music, to make sure you have your business together and make sure that you feel happy at whatever you want to do. You just gotta feel good about it and know that, at the end of the day, you got your i’s dotted and your t’s crossed in business because we have families. We go out there and work for our families. My thing is, if I’m not gonna see my children and I’m out here doing a job, I think it’s important for me to go out there, do what I say I’m gonna do, get back home to them and hit up Disneyland.”
Wu-Tang is prepping the release of A Better Tomorrow as well as their multi-million dollar album, Wu – Once Upon A Time In Shaolin.
In May, Wu-Tang announced a truce between RZA and Raekwon following a back-and-forth between the two regarding A Better Tomorrow.
During the group’s The Daily Show appearance, they also presented their new single, “Ron O’Neal.”
selling 1 copy of an album for a million dollars, I dont care what artists releases the album, no album is worth a million dollars. Shit is probably trash anyway, last few wu-tang albums have been garbage.
nigga you suck

Many albums are worth a milli if bought by a label
This is off their actual album….the one selling for a million will not have any songs played by wutang anyway

bunch of fuckin peasants
The GOAT’s
They are the GOATS! They had one classic and a tribe called quest and public enemy had CLASSICS ALBUM. Do your research before commenting
Everyone is entitled to there opinion but come on son wu has way more than one classic
PE and Tribe can’t hold the Wu’s jock strap mic attachments lol
Only one classic are you serious they have put out 5 albums to date, two of them are classics with 36 Chambers and Wu-Tang Forever. If you count solo albums then you have to include GZA’s “Liquid Sword”, Method Man’s “Tical”, Rakewon’s “Only Built 4 Cuban Linx”, Ghostface Killah’s “Ironman” & “Supreme Clientele.” It is hard to argue with the fact that from one group who has had more classic albums. A Tribe Called Quest had two classics, I’m a huge fan of them but they had “Midnight Marauders” & “The Low End Theory” and the rest are good not classic status though. They had some solo projects but none reach classic status, so Wu-Tang wins by numbers.
I’m feeling the beat, the lyrics, but whats with the cheesy ass chorus lmfao
Who needs Wu some old farts. Now we have: Ross, Drake, Wayne. This is the new generation of rappers.
You’re embarrassing yourself
You call those guys rappers?
Fuck these commercial niggas selling a album for a mil. Probaly they broke.
Fuck your fav rapper.
The Wu is back.
Peace to the Gods
That is actually the nicest verse I have heard from RZA in a while. Pretty ill track, excited for the new album. Good to see Chef up there with the Clan, but I was never worried. He was the hold up on the last album, and had more verses than anybody.
A better tomorrow is not the one million dollar album, thats once upon a time in shaolin and its already done
There will never be another group in the history or any genre quite like the Wu-Tang Clan
The beat and the hook make the song instant-forgettable. Still, it’s nice to hear five members on one track. Expexted much more though. Cheers to my Wu-Tang mates all over the world!
what is it with these hooks? why? why?
“thats the whitest place they could have ever performed. smart when you think abut who really buys wu albums”
you really thought black people be driving through the hood blasting wu tang daily??? some of these kids out here don’t even know what wu tang is lmao
lemme use this for a presentation at school?
