Album at Mona Exhibition

Get ready to have your blown because the legendary is about to make some serious waves in the music world once again. Remember their one-of-a-kind album, ‘Once Upon a Time in Shaolin’? Well, hold on to your sombreros because this hidden gem is about to see the light of day!

Picture this: a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, shrouded in and exclusivity. The Wu-Tang Clan spent six long years crafting this unique treasure, and now, a lucky few will finally get to experience it in all its glory. ¡Qué emocionante!

Starting June 15th, the Museum of Old and New (Mona) in Tasmania, Australia, will be hosting the ‘Namedropping’ exhibition, and guess what’s on the menu? ¡Sí, señor! None other than the elusive ‘Once Upon a Time in Shaolin’ album. And the best part? You might just score a ticket to a private listening session. ¡Qué suerte!

Jarrod Rawlins, the big boss of curatorial affairs at Mona, is over the moon about getting his hands on this album. He said, “When I considered the concept of status and a transcendent namedrop, I knew I had to include it in this exhibition.” ¡Claro que sí! This album is more than just music; it’s a piece of art that deserves to be celebrated.

Now, before you start planning your trip to Tasmania, there’s a small catch. The album comes with a legal agreement that says “no” to commercial exploitation until 2103. But hey, that just means more intimate listening parties for the lucky few, ¿verdad?

The Wu-Tang Clan first dropped the about this extraordinary album back in March 2014, and they weren’t messing around. They wanted to sell it to the highest bidder and make it a true collector’s item. We’re talking a hand-carved and a leather-bound book with and the whole backstory. ¡Qué chulo!

So, amigos y amigas, if you find yourself Down Under this June, make sure to check out the ‘Namedropping’ exhibition at Mona. Who knows? You might just get to experience a piece of that’s been hidden away for far too long. ¡Viva el Wu-Tang Clan y su música legendaria!
