GENIUS/GZA

This chat courtisy of SonicNet

January 17, 1996


Being the year of "The Wu" it's only right to start it off with The Genius/GZA. Kicking it to his fans about Emerge and Tommy not being his "Mother f*ckin boy," we were soon to learn that this chat was not all about labels. Instead, it was a whole new way of communicating how he feels about his fans, Method Man and life in general.
