Wu-Tang: An American Saga (Hulu Original) (show, actors, episodes, best)

[DK736]

Any Wu-Tang fans here? I binged the first 3 episodes last week. Excited for tonight, since new episodes are released on Hulu every Wednesday. They actually dubbed it Wu-Wednesday LOL. I really like the show so far. Love that it expands beyond the music and showed what all the members were going through as Rza was trying his best to leave it all behind in hopes of getting signed as recording artist and producer. My only complaint is most of the actors that play their counterparts don't really look or sound like them, but they do a good job nonetheless. However, the guy who plays ODB looks and sounds a lot like him, which is pretty cool. Also love that Dave East plays Method Man.

I've been wanting to check this out.
I'll start watching this weekend. Wu-Tang Clans Story of how they came to be, and the fall out is a fascinating story that Transcends Music.

Nice, let me know what you think! Yeah, when it comes to Hip Hop, that group and all of their members have quite an origin story. The show is produced by both Rza and Method Man, and the credits note that all the members were contacted to assist with it. Have you ever read Rza's book "The Tao of Wu?" It's a great read that talks about how everything came to be, as well as how Rza fell in love with martial arts, anime, comic books, chess, and everything about him that helped shape who he is as a person, producer, artist, and more.
