RZA of Wu-Tang Clan teams up with Ballantine’s Whisky for a new collaboration. The infamous Brooklyn-born rapper and producer RZA has long been a man who loves to push the boundaries. He competed in rap battles at only age eleven. He then produced his first album in 1993 with fellow Wu-Tang members GZA and Ol’ Dirty Bastard.
It’s safe to say that music has been in his blood from the start. He’s big on staying true to yourself. A mentality that he’s now bringing to a new collaboration with Ballantine’s Scotch whisky.
