RZA Dedicates “Destiny Bends” To Paul Walker

    RZA has released an ode to Paul Walker, an actor who passed away in a fiery car accident on Saturday (November 30).

    “Every time I think about you, all I see is your smile and your bright blue eyes,” Will Wells sings on the track, written by RZA, his sons and Wells.  

    “This song, entitled ‘Destiny Bends,’ was written last night after hearing the tragic news of the loss of a good man named Paul Walker,” RZA says in a statement. “I met Paul on the set of the film Brick Mansion, where we talked, laughed, and exchanged ideas of life and fatherhood.” 

    In his letter, RZA also says that he felt a connection with Walker.

    “I only knew him personally for less than a year, but we knew each other through our work and art,” RZA says. “We saw in each other a kindred spirit of men coming from unlikely circumstances, and rising to be the light and beacon of our family and loved ones. Men who learned the joy and pains of love in life, and success, while coming to realize that nothing is more important than family, friendship, and the brotherhood of humanity. Millions of people get to know an artist or movie star through their work, but few are allowed to cross each others’ paths and see through the veil of stardom and find the common denominator that we share.

    “As all physical things will decay and wither away, film, art, and music remain longer than the vessel that delivered them,” RZA continues. “In this vein, the one thing we can’t take away or give back is time. So, thus, time is the most precious gift. I dedicated my time to compose this song with my two sons and new friend Will Wells, who was kind enough to sing and perform it for me. We dedicate it to Paul Walker. A good man. We had plans to continue working with each other in the future. It seemed destined, but destiny bends.” 

    The track can be heard below via Soundcloud by way of 2DopeBoyz.

    1. Come on, RZA. Why do you have to capitalize off the emotions of people?

      “I only knew him personally for less than a year, but we knew each other through our work and art.”

      Who makes a song about the passing of a casual work acquaintance? RZA’s intentions are transparent.

      1. “Who makes a song about the passing of a casual work acquaintance”

        -A man saddened by the loss of his friend, that’s who, asshole.

      2. “A man saddened by the loss of his friend, that’s who, asshole.”

        He said they weren’t friends. Which I quoted in my original comment. Learn to read.

      3. He still knew him you idiot, and Rza said he felt a connection between him and Paul. He has every right to dedicate a song to him.

    2. Fucking garbage and a sad ass publicity stunt by RZA…. Bobby should jump in the grave himself too, washed up wannabe Hollywood asswipe

      1. Hey dickwad, how about you drive to the humboldt river wih your homies, have them tie a couple breeze blocks around your ankles, and have them drop you in the fucking lake? A man is fucking dead here,so show some fucking respect on my comment section.

      .Besides the story is about Paul Walker’s death, but hold up I guess cus he has starred with a few rappers that makes it a HipHop story, right? Lol smh.

    5. RZA has done some horrible things– every acting role, his garbage ass movie– but this is even worse; he’s supposed to be GOOD at music!!!

      Who knew the guy who used to be one of hip-hop’s great producers has NO SOUL?

      Even white emo kids must be laughing at this trash.

      1. Speaking of RZA doing horrible things. There’s still hundreds if not thousands of customers waiting for merchandise or a refund from RZA’s label Soul Temple Music! Havent heard a thing since september!

        Make sure you check out BOYCOTT SOUL TEMPLE MUSIC on Facebook and give the page a Like

      2. seriously…fuck you, yeah you 2nd poster. eat a dick….following any RZA posts that pop up on the internet. your mother should have swallowed you. If she only knew what a whiny bitch you’d grow up to be, she’d probably wold have told your dad to bust all over her face instead of in her….your’e the result of your dad not being able to pull out.

    6. A man dedicates a song in memory of another fallen human being and people still gotta find somethin ignorant to say…smh!

      Much respect to the RZA for this and r.i.p Paul Walker.

    7. Wow. Didn’t think it was possible but RZA is an even worse ‘songwriter’ than he is an ‘actor.’

      To think, he was once a great producer and good rapper… Dumb delusional fuck.

      1. @ first Anon, what is the point of you’re life …What a fucking waste and to think someone birthed you’re worthless ass

      2. “Every time I think about you, all I see is your smile and your bright blue eyes”

        That was soojavascript:void(null)ooooooo gay

    8. Hey Bobby, try being friends with all the kids you don’t raise before licking some dead celebrity’s ass.

      1. he should also pay back the hundreds of fans who bought shit from Soul Temple Music 9-10 months ago and never got a thing! Not even a response to e-mails asking where our stuff is!

    9. those are words from the soul….the universal frequency we all can tap into, when hitting on a certain deep emotion….
