The album's title is derived from the Kung Fu film Eight-Diagram Pole Fighter.[3]
The Clan, which has not released an album since 2001's Iron Flag, signed a
one-album deal with Steve Rifkind's SRC Records in December 2006. The group's
four previous albums were all released on Rifkind's now-defunct Loud Records.
8 Diagrams will feature all eight living members: RZA, GZA, Inspectah Deck,
Raekwon, U-God, Ghostface Killah, Method Man and Masta Killa. The album will
feature previously recorded material from Ol' Dirty Bastard, the ninth member,
as well as a tribute track titled "Life Changes."
In a released statement, group leader RZA commented on the need for the Clan's
return:
“ This is the perfect time for us to come back; the stars are aligned. It's like
when we first started with Steve. We put out real hip-hop at a time when it was
turning into pop or R&B. We brought the focus back to the music in its rawest
form, without studio polish or radio hooks.... People want something that gives
them an adrenaline rush. We're here to supply that fix. How could hip-hop be
dead if Wu-Tang is forever? We're here to revive the spirit and the economics
and bring in a wave of energy that has lately dissipated.[4] ”
Cappadonna mentioned at the public premiere of Wu: The Story of the Wu-Tang in
NYC some new news regarding the album. He said that the Clan already recorded
about 40 to 50 songs, but that the new album will only have about 14 tracks.
In a recent article from Nme.com, it was stated that the LP will feature
production from Easy Mo Bee, Marley Marl, Q-Tip, DJ Scratch and Nile Rodgers.[5]
Even more recently, it was stated that George Clinton, of P-Funk; Dhani Harrison;
John Frusciante; and Shavo Odadjian, bassist of System of a Down will be on the
album as well.[6]
This will also be the Wu's first collaboration since the passing of original
member Ol' Dirty Bastard, who died in 2004. "We still miss him every day," GZA
added. "It's like you lost an arm or a leg; you feel incomplete. You can still
walk or do other things, but you're limited to a certain degree." With the RZA
adding, "He was a very special person, like a very rare diamond. You know, it's
like you wake up one day and they're saying, 'There are no diamonds in the world
anymore, just cubic zirconia...'"
