RZA has released an app for Wu-Tang Clan fans that use Apple devices called ‘RZA’s World.’ The app was produced by Charisma Apps in partnership with the Wu-Tang Clan’s de facto leader who is looking to prove that his nickname Bobby Digital can keep pace with developing technology.
The app will give fans a chance to see what its like in the mind of the Grammy Award winning rapper-actor-director with a number of features including RZA’s Chess Chamber which lets fans play games of 3D chess, Soundtrack to Your Life that will play beats and deliver words of wisdom as the user performs daily activities, The Vault which offers a gallery of RZA’s photography and unreleased footage and What’s News which keeps up-to-date with the latest RZA news.
RZA described the app in a video that was released as part of the products launch as a tool that would solidify his presence on the web. “I wanted something to give me what I would call an electronic footprint. It’s something that I can use not only to outlet what I’m doing creatively, but also to give you access to some products of mine, back catalogues,” says RZA.
The Wu-Tang Clan has a long history of offering fans layered products since the release of ‘Wu-Tang Forever’ which included an interactive CD Rom. RZA was prompted to push into Facebook and twitter while he was out of the country filming ‘The Man With The Iron Fist’ and used the platforms to release previously unseen material through his #WuWednesdays hastag.
The app is currently only available for Apple devices including an HD version for iPad users and has a price tag of $3.99.
