The milestone has been marked by numerous events and performances so far this year.While talking to Rolling Stone, the Wu-Tang Clan member reflected on what is next for hip-hop. “Somebody tweeted recently that ‘We are still not aligned.’ I think we need to align,” he said to the publication.
“Maybe get some of the godfathers to come together and talk about what we’re going to do with this culture, and how we’re going to protect it, preserve it, and advance it.”He suggested that there should be a “Hip-Hop Hall of Fame” as The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and BET Awards are “great” but are governed by the “corporate” world. “We need people of the culture to govern and guide the culture”, the rapper explained.RZA’s comments follow Ice-T sharing at this year’s Essence Fest that he thinks the modern scene needs “to get a hold of itself” because “every week somebody’s going to jail. People are dying of drugs, killing each other.”“My generation, we lost Tupac, we lost Biggie and we got the memo,” Ice-T said.
“Everybody calmed down. We all figured this out: We [were] rapping to get out of the streets.”Elsewhere in his interview, RZA also spoke about the late rapper and his former Wu-Tang Clan bandmate Ol’ Dirty Bastard. “He was such a unique talent,” he said.

Depicted deciphering Soviet-planted hidden media messages for the Defense Department, the duty turned out to be a symptom of schizophrenia. That was a mild foray into the human mind compared to The Crowded Room, the 10-part Apple TV+ series Goldsman created and was showrunner on. Tom Holland stars as a young man whose erratic behavior was the result of a false reality triggered by a mind that fractured into multiple alter egos. Inspired by the Daniel Keyes book The Minds of Billy Milligan, Goldsman changed facts to create a fictionalized story that would be hard to believe had it not happened. What Goldsman hasn’t discussed until now is how much of the narrative was informed by his own memories of being molested as a child by a family friend, through his formative childhood and teenage years.
