The Wu-Tang Forever Time Capsule is a one-of-a-kind vault that will travel during their upcoming tour
Wu-Tang Clan has unveiled the Wu-Tang Forever Time Capsule, a one-of-a-kind vault that will accompany the worldโs most iconic hip-hop group on their final tour Wu-Tang Forever: The Final Chamber, kicking off in Baltimore, Maryland on June 6th.
โFrom the basements of Staten Island, we created something timeless. And now we invite you to be part of that inspiration,โ Wu-Tang Clan founder Rza says of the Time Capsule. โIn every city, we will be putting something new inside this time capsule. Something from your city to connect with all the Wu cities and Wu fans around the world. This Wu-Tang Forever Time Capsule will only be seen in the Shaolin Temple VIP. We invite you to be part of this legacy.โ
The Wu-Tang Forever Time Capsule will travel the entire tour route with the group, on display exclusively in the Shaolin Temple VIP Experience. The VIP experience includes premium seating and exclusive merchandise, and the opportunity to add a piece of personal history to the Wu-Tang Clanโs lasting legacy.
Wu-Tang Clan unveiled the Time Capsule with comedian Dave Chappelle at a surprise show at his YS Firehouse in Yellow Springs, Ohio on Friday. Chappelle, who introduced the group with the original members on stage behind him, added to the vault a special, Wu-signed vinyl album from his personal collection.
In an intimate sneak preview ahead of their upcoming final tour, Wu-Tang Forever: The Final Chamber, the group ripped through a fiery set packed with classics from their extensive, beloved catalogue, treating the roughly 250 fans in attendance for Chappelleโs Soundcheck Series to a once-in-a-lifetime show.
Produced by AEG Presents, the 27-date Wu-Tang Forever: The Final Chamber tour will kick off on June 6th in Baltimore at CFG Bank Arena. With shows in New York City, Boston and Philadelphia already sold out, the tour will hit Los Angeles, Atlanta, Houston, Seattle, Chicago, and more. The tour will be supported by acclaimed hip-hop duo Run the Jewels.
The Wu Tang Forever: The Final Chamber tour will celebrate the depth and breadth of the iconic group’s deep catalogue. On the tour fans can expect to hear songs that have never been performed live, deep cuts, and, of course, major hits from their debut album Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) as well as the groupโs Grammy-nominated and highest selling second album Wu-Tang Forever, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart and has been certified quadruple platinum. To date, the group has released a total of seven gold and platinum studio albums with worldwide sales exceeding a staggering 40 million albums.
Having just completed the first ever hip-hop residency in Las Vegas last year, Wu-Tang Clan is gearing up to begin this final tour with electric performances and a dedication to give fans one more chance to be a part of the groupโs lasting legacy.
