UPDATE:
It's been a while since we heard any news in regards to the Wu-Tang Clan's upcoming reunion album, The 8 Diagrams, coming this October on SRC Records, but RZA recently broke the silence on the issue in an interview with Billboard. In still remains questionable if the album will include vocals from Ol' Dirty Bastard.
"He left a piece of himself in each and every one of us. Even in the performance of some of the lyrics, you'll hear a style or attitude that he injected," said RZA.
According to RZA, a cassette tape of the Wu-Tang's original demo for Enter The 36 Chambers has found, featuring an "immaculate" unused Ol' Dirty Bastard verse, which may or may not make it on The 8 Diagrams.
"I lost it, because the DJ who handled my equipment back then, we just got disconnected," he said. "He actually found the tape about eight months ago and flew out to California with it. The problem is, it doesn't sound all that great, because this was 1992 or 1993 when it was recorded. But ODB's performance is f*ckin' immaculate. So maybe I can find some software to restore it and put it on as a bonus track."
Regardless, the album will include a O.D.B. tribute track called "Life Changes". Other song titles that have been revealed are "You Can't Stop Me Now," "We Got This," "Campfire" and "Thug World" (feat. Shavo Odadjian of System of A Down).
As far as guest artists go, Q-Tip appears on an unnamed song which may act as the album's first single. RZA also hinted that he would be tapping some "major names" for outside production. "You will hear some unique sounding stuff and a vintage hip-hop spirit," he added. - Pizzo

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
July 10th, 2007
Raekwon of the Wu-Tang Clan to unveil the long awaited debut from the
Ice Water clique on August 28th via Babygrande Records
Highly anticipated album features Method Man, Busta Rhymes, Rick Ross,
Three Six Mafia, Remy Ma, Jagged Edge & more.
Under the tutelage of Wu-Tang Clan's resident chef Raekwon, the four-man
crew of Polite, Stomach, P.C. (Paulie Caskets) and D.C. (Donnie Cash)
marks Staten Island's return to prominence as a hotbed for fresh,
credible talent. Die hard fans may remember Ice Water from their
appearances on several tracks on Raekwon's last album, 2002's "The Lex
Diamond Story," as well as their opening stints for the Chef on his
subsequent 30+ state tour. As Raekwon confirms, "We knew these cats
had potential way back, but the timing wasn't right. I always kept a
radar on dudes, and when I felt they was ready mentally and lyrically,
I helped 'em get on."
Raekwon compares his protracted development of the group to raising
pitbulls: "I'm training these pits. I've got them on the treadmill, and
I'm beating 'em, feedin' 'em hot sauce and steaks, so they're ready for
this industry."
Honed and focused, Ice Water's debut, Raekwon presents.Ice Water:
"Polluted Water," will finally be released on August 28th on Babygrande
Records, home to such renowned and critically acclaimed talent as
Hi-Tek, GZA, Jedi Mind Tricks, Immortal Technique and more. Raekwon
states, "Babygrande recognized that Wu is a brand, and we've got so
many different divisions of rappers around us."
But is Ice Water really ready for the spotlight?
The veteran multi-platinum selling MC speaks earnestly, justifying the
time he's taken to refine the quartet's innate skills: "I can't put my
name on anything that I feel is not on my level. These dudes
are on my level, that's why I pushed for the project; I believe in
them." A-listers such as Busta Rhymes, Rick Ross, Remy Ma, Three Six
Mafia and Jagged Edge believed too, appearing on a number of the
album's tracks, which also features appearances from Rae himself and
Method Man, along with production by such renowned producers as Scram
Jones, Jagged Edge and EZ-Elpee. According to Rae, the collaborations
weren't just a result of Rae's industry stature: "Yea I pushed a couple
of buttons. Busta Rhymes, he's a good friend of ours; but he knew where
these dudes was at. Nobody would represent these guys if they didn't
have a good taste in they mouth about dudes"
Honing their craft for over a decade, Ice Water has paid their dues.
Indeed, the release of "Polluted Water" marks both the return and
rebirth of Staten Island hip-hop. The significance of the group's long
awaited emergence from the Wu-Tang Clan's very own Shaolin stomping
ground is not lost on Master Chef Raekwon: "At the end of the day, I
knew I'd never build another dynasty with eight or nine dudes. But
these dudes' chemistry is perfect. This is the next dynasty."
Raekwon presents.Ice Water: "Polluted Water" hits stores August 28th,
2007.
