I'm talking to a friend the other day about the long and storied career of the Wu-Tang Clan . And about the members of said hip-hop ensemble who have had, to put it bluntly, underwhelming careers. To say nothing of the innumerable side projects that the Wu have sponsored, lent variations on their logo to, or been loosely affiliated with. And we hypothesized that U-God should've just been spun off years ago to captain his own, lesser chapter of the Wu elsewhere. Like the West Coast, no, not even... The Great Lakes Wu-Tang! [If you happen not to be a comic book geek and a hip-hop fanatic, background on why this is funny can be found here and here .] -PAR
