Where is wu tang now

Rolling Stone reports :. A quick history: A Wu-Tang obsessive named Tarik "Cilvaringz" Azzougarh gradually works his way into the periphery of the famous Nineties hip-hop group and hits on the idea of recording a single copy of an album and limiting its uses.

At a time when almost all music was instantly available for free, Once Upon a Time in Shaolin was going to be nearly impossible to hear. No commercial release was allowed for 88 years, you couldn't record or remix the original, play it at a large party, pop it on a streaming service or livestream it; the only way to listen would be to know the owner and get invited to a small, tightly controlled event.

What's sorely ironic is that a rent-seeking middleman was very much needed to procure the album. Since the federal government won't do deals in crypto, the DAO had to pay an anonymous intermediary to conduct the transaction. Still, DAOs may well in the future help reduce middlemen in art markets, cutting down on the need for collectors, galleries, and auction houses, allowing creators to more directly sell their work—especially digital works like non-fungible tokens or NFTs—and bypass some of the dues-paying process and formal art-world institutions.

By nature of this deal involving both the government and a physical album, though, the rent-seeking middlemen did have to be involved. Still, "to tie 'Once Upon a Time' to the digital realm, an NFT was created to stand as the ownership deed for the physical album," reports the Times. He initially performed under the name Raekwon the Chef but eventually shortened it.
