RZA

"Victory or Death" a limited edition print created by RZA and an art collective known as When Art Imitates Life. The piece re-imagines Emanuel Leutze's famed 1851 painting "Washington Crossing the Delaware" with RZA replacing George. GZA and Ol' Dirty Bastard are drawn in as well. (Check out a close-up below.) According to the W.A.I.L. website, the painting has a Highlights-esque appeal, too, since there are "50 hidden elements" contained within. (One of those elements may or may not be a blunt.)

RZA is also directing a kung fu movie.
"Tarantino is my teacher," RZA said solemnly, echoing -- whether intentionally or not -- the kind of dialogue you'd hear in a martial-arts film. "I've watched hundreds of movies with him and spent hundreds of hours learning craft from him. I'm a disciple of Tarantino."
So sick. Full article by LA Times here.
