#MP3: U-God feat. Inspectah Deck, Raekwon, & Jackpot Scotty Wotty – Epicenter

U-God - Epicenter [Track Artwork]

As 2018 marks Wu-Tang Clan’s 25th Anniversary, founding member U-God aka Golden Arms reminds us that the Clan members get better with age with the release of his new solo album ‘Venom’, which will be released on 3-30-2018 via Babygrande Records.

The essence of that classic Wu-Tang sound we love so much comes full circle on the God’s fifth studio album, ‘Venom’. Led by the gritty DJ Green Lantern-produced single, “Epicenter,” featuring Raekwon, Inspectah Deck, & Scotty Wotty, U-God wastes no time setting the tone for what’s to come on the album.

U-God commented to HotNewHipHop:

“Wu-Tang is forever and will always represent the epicenter of hip-hop, me and my brothers throwing darts back to back that’s that Park Hill shit, watch out we causing Tsunamis of swagger up in this motherfucka.”

In addition to his new solo-album, U-God will be releasing his new memoir/book ‘Raw: My Journey Into The Wu Tang’ on 3-6-2018 and will immediately embark on his first solo U.S. tour in five years (tour dates below) in support of both his new album ‘Venom’ and his new book ‘Raw: My Journey Into The Wu Tang’. “The Raw/Venom Tour” will feature both intimate Q&A sessions with U-God and live performance dates.

Pre-orders for ‘Venom’ will be available tonight at midnight and includes “Epicenter” as an instant-grat track: https://fanlink.to/ugod-epicenter
