The RZA (Ivo Kljuce)
The Wu-Tang Clan’s strange musical cocktail includes equal parts hip hop, martial arts and Staten Island housing-project mythology. The rap collective’s producer and spiritual leader, The RZA, joins us to talk about a religious manifesto and street memoir called The Tao of Wu. And later: a live performance from Swedish singer-songwriter Anna Ternheim.
RZA's Seven Pillars of Wisdom
The Wu-Tang Clan earned rap acclaim in the 1990s and spawned solo careers for Method Man, Ghostface Killah, Raekwon and other members. Today, the storied hip-hop collective's leader, The RZA, joins us to share The Tao of Wu, a new book that is part street memoir, part religious manifesto.
Anna Ternheim
Anna Ternheim has that Swedish knack for setting melancholic words to catchy pop music. Now a New Yorker, the singer songwriter joins us to talk about her latest album, Leaving on a Mayday, and she plays live in our studio.
