![]() ![]() It’s just a statement that I wanted to get out, saying that “I’m lyrical and I’m not material.” I’m a sum of a beautiful equation and sometimes these dudes need to just realize and respect the tradition of an emcee. You can recycle it and get rid of it after you’re done with it. You know what “Paper Plate” is about? just something that is lightweight and disposable. ![]() In response to a question about "Paper Plate," he said: GZA, during a performance in Queens, New York, had this to say about 50 Cent: "a Nigga don't got fuckin lyrics". The single continues the feud between GZA and 50 Cent (who has not responded to the track). The first single from the album, "Paper Plate," was released on Jand was circulated widely over the internet. Whenever I close my eyes and listen to his stuff, I can’t put a rhyme to it. In the same interview, he gave a response about having only a few RZA-produced songs on the album, stating "Well, you have to put in time with your producer, and RZA and I have been working back since I was 11 & he was 8 going to the Bronx to check out this hip hop stuff, so you have to know where they are coming from. Emcees need to start carrying their own weight". My next album is going to be no guest appearances. The last day we were recording, I was in Paris supporting the Wu tour, and a call was put out that I was in the studio and the only two that showed up were RZA & Masta Killa, so that’s what we went with. The album as a whole has only two Clan members on it. I’d rather people buy the record because they want a GZA album, and then the extras be a surprise. I remember once we paid $150,000 for a Trackmasters beat once, with Ron Isley singing, the “Back In The Game” track off of Iron Flag, and it wasn’t even a single, so I don’t bother searching for names. GZA was asked about producers and having fewer guest appearances on the album, responding "I’m not one who works with big producers because I expect that to make the album go double platinum. I'll probably be on most of the tracks but its supposed to be a compilation album, there’s various artists on the album". GZA later said "I saw an ad out there where it’s promoted as a GZA album. Guest appearances range from RZA, Masta Killa, and GZA's son Young Justice. Pro Tools features production from Wu-Elements producers RZA, True Master, Mathematics and Bronze Nazareth, as well as Arabian Knight, Dreddy Kruger, Preservation. ![]()
