Wu-Tang album auction at Paddle8, by Deleted on Mar 3, 2015 14:12:34 GMT 1, What do you guys think about this? So weird, but interesting.
"Wu-Tang Clanโs final album, Once Upon A Time In Shaolin, has found an online auction home at Paddle8 and new details are beginning to emerge. According to a new special micro-website, Once Upon A Time will have 31 new songs recorded over six years and produced by Cilvaringz and The RZA. The album will feature Cher, Redman, Carice Van Houten and players from FC Barcelonaโs soccer team amongst others. There is only one copy of the album available and all backups and digital files have been destroyed.
On that same website, RZA and Cilvaringz did a Q+A with information about the project and itโs release. In the interview, the producers revealed that whoever wins the auction will have the right to release the album to the public after 88 years."

Wu-Tang album auction at Paddle8, by Aza on Mar 3, 2015 21:33:32 GMT 1, Gravediggaz - Niggamortis or as its now known 6 Feet Deep, was the one that did it for me incredible album, as are a few of the earlier Wu solo eforts from the various members then it all seemed to go a bit downhill for me havent listened to any for years now. On another note I did love "Wrath of the Math" by Jeru the Damaga another great LP. Nothing to do with Wu though just thought I'd drop it in
Try 12 reasons to die. It really is a great album.

Wu-Tang album auction at Paddle8, by TM on Mar 3, 2015 23:16:05 GMT 1, As a long time wu-tang listener i thought i allready knew everything about the crazy once upon a time in shaolin album, but the fact that it will feature some players from the FC Barcelona is new to me and makes me pissin my pants atm 
i really love the concept of how they
sell this one. not sure if it really will work, but it is an important signal to all the music fans who only get their songs for free on the web...
music is art - money eats art - art eats money
at least, thats the way i see that thing... 
i doubt that it will be a new masterpiece of the clan... kinda hope it will convince me, but i really doubt it...
i go with asa and stick to ghostface, he is getting better and better over the years!

I have an amazing cd from a Slovenian mate who told me it was only sold in a shop in Ljubljana or some shit 'round 04. Some of the tracks are on soulwax? etc from around that time but much of it is undiscoverable by normal methods. So really not everything is on the internet or even findable, so presume there is some sort of enforceable clause? Been paying for records for years, never had a problem with it, pretty much have everything I taped as a kid on cassette, cd, or vinyl, some stuff 2-3 copies. Not paying for music is wack. If you don't pay for for anything then don't moan that it's shit and no one's doing anything interesting. Was over east london today and thought just how lucky I was to grow when I did.

Wu-Tang album auction at Paddle8, by searchandrescue on Mar 4, 2015 1:13:05 GMT 1, ..if you are old enough to remember the first time you saw the wu on mtv raps "Method Man" and are still a fan then you probably don't really care about the quality of some of their output after the first few albums. In my minds eye can still see them swarmin' outta the tunnel and the piano chord chop! You just knew this was gonna be something good! They had everything, the size of the crew, the look, the lyrics, the video production, just amazing. They threw down the gauntlet, what anyone else did after that was their own choice. For me they easily redefined rap music, almost overnight.

Wu-Tang album auction at Paddle8, by msobel3 on Mar 4, 2015 5:03:43 GMT 1, msobel3 Incorrect. The music cannot go public for 88 years, no leaks.
"RZA has already acknowledged that it would be possible for the eventual buyer of Once Upon A Time to release the entire album for free at any point, thereby skirting the 88 year requirement. But he believes that outcome is unlikely given the amount of money that will be changing hands."
www.forbes.com/sites/zackomalleygreenburg/2015/03/02/wu-tang-clan-set-to-release-secret-album-in-88-years-give-or-take/
TM it also explains the reasoning behind the 88 years

Haha you just reiterated what I said! of course they "could" but they're contracted not to n the sale. If you bought a banksy original you "could" make sets of unsigned prints, but you likely wouldn't.

The Forbes article states repeatedly that the buyer cannot release the album commercially.
However, I don't see anything in the article to suggest that releasing it for free - online or otherwise - would be a problem. The acknowledgement by RZA cited at the end of the article and by msobel3 suggests that a not-for-profit release would be ok.
