The Wu-Tang Clan take their final bow on night one of the Wu-Tang Forever: The Final Chamber tour
The Wu-Tang Clan took their final bow as a touring group in Baltimore this past Friday night at CFG Bank Arena for the first night of their Wu-Tang Forever: The Final Chamber Tour. Young Dirty Bastard (son of the group’s legendary member, the late Ol’ Dirty Bastard), joined Wu-Tang’s RZA, GZA, Raekwon, Inspectah Deck, U-God, Masta Killa, Ghostface Killa, Cappadonna, and M-E-T-H-O-D Man on stage for an electric night of hip-hop. Heralded as one of the artform’s most innovative groups of all time, Wu-Tang performed songs from their expansive group catalog including “Bring da Ruckus,” “Chess Boxin,” “Wu Tang Clan Ain’t Nuthin to F*ck Wit,” “Method Man,” “Protect Ya Neck,” and “C.R.E.A.M. (Cash Rules Everything Around Me).” From start to finish the group showed why they are the cream (no pun intended) of the crop, commanding the crowd for more than two hours like they were favored by time and moving through their hits with a deliberate and fundamentally sound precision that joyfully defied all understanding. The Wu-Tang Forever: The Final Chamber tour will travel across the country through mid-July ending in Philadelphia, PA. Run the Jewels is the tour’s opening act.
