RZA seeks 30-second chess rap!

The RZA of the Wu Tang Clan has issued a “Rap Challenge” to rappers worldwide to produce a 30-second rap on chess. He also makes a quick pitch for wuchess.com which launched on June 2nd. The Wu Tang Clan has just ended a successful concert tour and will no doubt be playing on the networking chess site.

There have already been couple of responses including one by The Rugged Monk. Monk was the Wu Tang member who overlooked a bankrank mate a rook up against the RZA in the Hip Hop Chess Federation’s King’s Invitational. Chess is a main theme in Wu Tang’s songs and RZA may be looking for a lead to his next CD.
