The Wu-Tang Clan have had a bit of trouble staying on the same page lately. Whether it's confusion over the release of their next project or certain members going on strike, the legendary Hip Hop collective has had some trouble seeing eye to eye. Raekwon in particular was very critical of Wu's last album, A Better Tomorrow, at one point refusing to be a part of the project. Since it's release last December, The Chef has been relatively quiet about the final product, but shared his true feelings about the project with NME.com, revealing that he thought the project was "too soft" and "too humble."
When asked why he felt it was "too soft," he went on to say that he wanted to offer fans some "real sh*t," but that the album was tailored more to RZA's liking than anyone else's.
"That album felt kinda bored," Raekwon said. "And that's not just my opinion. The music was just too soft. Too humble. I felt like the album could have been better. I voiced my opinion, like, 'Yo, let's give them some real sh*t.' The album was driven more to RZA's expectations. He was coming from one way. We was wanting to try something new."
Rae also revealed that he won't be joining Wu-Tang on tour this year while denying any kind of "beef" is the reason.
"I ain't going on the road with Wu-Tang this year," he said. "Fans will think it's beef in the group, but it's all management. I didn't know sh*t about the tour. They just assume I'm good to be there and put it all together, but by then I got obligations, a f**king schedule. It's frustrating, 'cos I'd love to be there."
