He&#8217;s never made a secret of his love for buds, and I suspect that his whole motivation to create the Wu-Tang Clan stems from his masterplan to create a world-wide weed carrying network. While Public Enemy once aimed to &#8220;create 5,000 Black leaders in the next five years&#8221;, Prince Rakeem promised to have &#8220;10,000 weed holders in every corner of the globe by Y2K&#8221;. Evidence of just how effective this plan was can be seen it projects such as The World According To RZA, which shows that whatever country The Abbott visits, his weed carrying requirements will be taken care of.<\/p>\n<p>During his busiest period in the mid-90&#8217;s, Clan members would have to battle for tracks &#8211; not with a war of words, but by a test of stashing abilities &#8211; to see who could get which of RZA&#8217;s in-demand beats for their solo projects. Method Man, ODB and Raekwon The Chef proved to be RZA&#8217;s most trusted weed carriers at this point, which explains why they had the first lot of solo albums to be released. Those who under-performed were sent back to weed holder training camp, which may explain why Masta Killa only just released his album last year. Female weed holders Blue Raspberry and Tekitha were rewarded for their services with cameo spots, but never graduated to weed owner status, despite numerous threats of RZA&#8217;s &#8220;blunted soul&#8221; project.<\/p>\n<p>Now that RZA hangs out with guys like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.galawallpapers.com\/pictures\/13\/1398\/thumb\/320_RZA_and_Quentin_Tarantino.jpg\">Quentin Tarinteno<\/a>, he doesn&#8217;t seem to have the same weed carrying requirements as he once did, although the occassional Bobby Digital album sees new weed carriers like Holocast and Dr. Doom (which must be reference to Kool Keith&#8217;s Dr. Dooom album and it&#8217;s Robbie Analogue preview) &#8211; as well as weed holding mainstays like Killarmy &#8211; on deck to keep the stash safe.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nA Salute To Weed Carriers takes it&#8217;s Stetson hat off to the RZA &#8211; Greatest Weed Owner Of All Time (GWOOAT).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When it comes to the RZA, there&#8217;s no escaping the fact that pretty much anyone that&#8217;s been within a hundred miles of Staten Island has carried this guys weed.
