Wu-Tang is arguably one of the best things to ever happen to hip-hop and GZA is arguably one of the best lyricists to come out of the Wu Clan thanks to his classic solo effort, Liquid Swords. The wordsmith who has graced the silver screen in the conversational film Coffee and Cigarettes opposite Bill Murray as well as appearances on the Chapelle Show is now headed to Cambridge to lecture on his craft as a guest of the Harvard Black Men's Forum.
GZA is currently working on a new LP to drop in 2012 on Babygrande Records, where he will visit with great minds of MIT and the Broad Institute for inspiration on the project.
Gary Grice aka GZA/The Genius, a founding member of rap supergroup the Wu-Tang Clan, will lecture about his Clan, his craft, and his creativity on Thursday, December 1 at 4 p.m. The lecture, hosted by the Harvard's Black Men's Forum, will be followed by Q&A and is open to the public.
The Harvard Black Men's Forum (BMF) is a student led organization focused on providing a space for African-American men at Harvard and combating issues that affect African-Americans at Harvard and around the world. The current President of BMF is Damilare Sonoiki, a junior at Harvard. --Life or Death PR
