RZA said in a press statement, "This is a special moment for me and all my Wu brothers to run around the globe together one more time and spread the Wu swag, music, and culture. Most importantly, to touch our fans and those who have supported us throughout the years." He added that they were playing previously unheard songs for fans and worked with their production team to design "a Wu-Tang show unlike anything you've ever seen". [2] He explained in a New York Times interview that the tour was part of their five-year plan, alongside a documentary series, dramatized mini-series, several individual biographies, and a Las Vegas residency.
