Wu International Presents Words From The Genius: GZA Promotes His Debut In '91

Spend a half an hour with The Genius as he hits FM radio back in '91 to introduce his Cold Chillin' Records debut. "Words From The Genius" is the work of a remarkable lyrical mind who would go on to leave an everlasting imprint upon Hip Hop. This interview shows Gary Grice aka The Genius prior to becoming The GZA, a talented emerging MC from Brooklyn. 

This outstanding but somewhat overlooked album within The Wu catalog is a vivid portrayal of the good, bad and ugly of The Rotten Apple from The Genius's point of view. Whether rhyming about the ladies, proving his status as a True Fresh MC or telling the Life Of A Drug Dealer, The Genius held his own in '91. Revisit the breakthrough of this great Hip Hop intellectual who weaves words together like none other.

Looking for another rare early rare moment of The Wu which pre-dates their breakthrough on LOUD Records? Enjoy Prince Raheem rocking the mic with Treach and Tony D from the cratesofjr archives.
