It is an explosive, never-before-told story behind the historic rise of the Wu-Tang Clan, as told by one of its founding members, Lamont "U-God" Hawkins.

Follow promoter Chang Weisberg and his guerrilla promotions team as they fight for the arrival of notorious no-shows the Wu-Tang Clan. Chang and his team battle broken equipment, overwhelmed security, and riotous crowds in order to deliver the show.

Contains an introduction to the music group, the Wu-Tang Clan, providing information on basic principles of the artistry, philosophy, and spirituality of the group, including a look into the ideas and life events that influenced them.

"Will Ashon tells, in 36 interlinked 'chambers', the story of Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) and how it changed the world. As unexpected and complex as the album itself, Chamber Music ranges from provocative essays to semi-comic skits, from deep scholarly analysis to satirical celebration, seeking to contextualize, reveal and honor this singular work of art. Chamber Music is an explosive and revelatory new way of writing about music and culture."--.
