Wu-Tang Clan’s RPG Xbox Game Gets New Details: Report

December 9, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Wu-Tang Clan’s upcoming Shaolin video game from Brass Lion Entertainment will reportedly be “a third-person melee-oriented RPG complete with four-player co-op” for Xbox, according to new leaks reported from Insider Gaming. All nine members of the group will serve as playable characters. Additionally, Just Blaze will be helping with the soundtrack.

“Players can choose from four different weapons that all have different and unique play styles (single swords, dual swords, etc.),” the report reads. “Gathered loot and items all fit into the game’s central social hub, named the ‘Neighborhood.’ Here, players will be able to sell their loot, listen to music, and show off their unique fashion choices with one another.”

The new report on Wu-Tang Clan’s video game comes amid a big year for the group’s legacy. New York City Mayor Eric Adams recently declared November 9 in their honor, while they also celebrated the 30th anniversary of Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). The Library of Congress deemed that classic album “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant” enough for preservation in the National Recording Registry, last year. Speaking about the honor at the time, RZA remarked: “I won’t say I was surprised, I was thankful. Look — this part will sound egocentric — but during the creation, I knew we were making something special. And that there would be an audience for it. For me, it [the album] didn’t exist and it needed to exist.”

In other video game news, Rockstar announced Grand Theft Auto 6, earlier this week, with a highly-anticipated trailer. Its predecessor arrived over a decade ago. Be on the lookout for further updates on Wu-Tang Clan’s upcoming Xbox video game on HotNewHipHop.

Fans are hyped about The Pink Tape, the upcoming release from Lil Uzi Vert. Earlier this week, Uzi teased the cover album’s cover art and hinted at potential collaborations.

Eternal Atake spent two weeks at #1 in March while Pluto x Baby Pluto peaked at #2.

Jay-Z’s Alleged Son Shares New Details About Rapper’s Relationship With His Late Mother

May 12, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this week, it was reported that 30-year-old Rymir Satterthwaite is furthering his fight to obtain a paternity test from Jay-Z. The man, who claims to be the illegitimate son of the rapper, has been on this quest for a decade now, but Shawn Carter has managed to evade complying with the request. While Rymir’s mother, Wanda, unfortunately, passed away due to medical complications in 2019, he’s been able to unseal a signed affidavit from her and share it with DailyMail, telling the late woman’s story on her behalf.

The document in question dates back to February 2015 and contains claims from Wanda that she met Jay-Z as a teenager in New York. She was underage at the time, and he was 22. They spent a night together at his aunt’s apartment in Brooklyn, according to Mrs. Satterthwaite. At the time they did use protection, but it ultimately “broke,” resulting in a pregnancy. Though Rymir’s mother insisted on the 4:44 artist’s paternity until her dying day, attorneys for Carter have been denying all claims made by the family for the entire duration of their legal battle.

“I met Shawn Corey Carter in fall 1992. He identified himself as ‘Rock,’ through my friend Kaleesha Allen who is an eye witness,” Wanda wrote in her affidavit. “Mr. Carter and a friend came to Philadelphia to pick up both me and Kaleesha around the area of 24th and Bolton Street,” she added, noting that the father of three may not recognize her legal name, as she went by Carmel, or Precious at the time. “After talking, drinking, and dancing, my girlfriend went off to the room with Shawn’s friend, and I went with [him],” Mrs. Satterthwaite further recalled.

The documents provided by Rymir also contain details from Wanda about what Jay-Z was wearing during their meeting. Hov apparently took a trip back to Philly with his friend a few weeks later to see the girls but only found Satterthwaite, who refused to leave with the New Yorker at the time as she didn’t want to upset her mother. “I never saw him again until a year later on television, but still had no idea of his real name until later and did not know how to reach him.”
