Since exploding out of Staten Island, New York in the early \u201890s, Wu-Tang has consistently brought their unbridled energy to every performance, and The Final Chamber Tour is no different.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<lite-youtube videoid=\"1XK_XE0ztB0\" style=\"bottom: 0; height: 100%; left: 0; position: absolute; right: 0; top: 0; width: 100%; max-width:100%;\"><\/lite-youtube>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-all-nine-surviving-members-are-on-the-bill\"><strong>7.

In fact, the group\u2019s name and many of their musical themes are inspired by the martial arts styles Shaolin and Wu-Tang, which are often depicted in Chinese kung fu movies.\u00a0Fans are treated to a 50-foot video wall that serves as the backdrop to the band and showcases the martial art imagery everyone has come to expect from Wu-Tang Clan.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<lite-youtube videoid=\"0hH-Q6Wm_0s\" style=\"bottom: 0; height: 100%; left: 0; position: absolute; right: 0; top: 0; width: 100%; max-width:100%;\"><\/lite-youtube>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-run-the-jewels-killer-mike-amp-el-p-are-along-for-the-ride-nbsp\"><strong>5.

The raucous duo\u2019s speaker-rattling bass, politically-charged lyrics and commanding stage presence pairs perfectly with Wu-Tang\u2019s electric performances. From songs like \u201cwalking in the snow\u201d (featuring the late Gangsta Boo) and \u201cJ.U.S.T.\u201d to \u201cNobody Speak\u201d (with DJ Shadow) and \u201cooh la la\u201d (with Greg Nice and DJ Premier), RTJ has a barrage of bangers in their catalog they\u2019re able to send into the stratosphere with every stop.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<lite-youtube videoid=\"RRw4Ftzb-zY\" style=\"bottom: 0; height: 100%; left: 0; position: absolute; right: 0; top: 0; width: 100%; max-width:100%;\"><\/lite-youtube>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-setlist-includes-some-surprises\"><strong>4.

Needless to say, the set lists have been full of surprises. At the tour\u2019s June 9 opening in Baltimore, they sailed through 40 songs that included rare cuts like \u201cImpossible,\u201d which they hadn\u2019t performed live since 2013.

Even when the curtain closes on July 18, the group\u2019s legacy will continue, whether it\u2019s through their iconic logo, young fans just discovering them, their vault of timeless music or various business ventures in film, television, books and more. Perhaps they\u2019ll be like The Rolling Stones of hip-hop, touring well into their 80s. After all, hip-hop is still relatively new and nobody has the blueprint for how it ages. But if this truly is their last run, fans can always hang on to hope that they\u2019ll bring da ruckus once again.
