Preview: Ghostface Killah @ Emo's [Sunday]

If you’re a Wu-Tang Clan fan, you best be thanking your lucky stars. GZA performs in Austin next month at the fourth edition of Fun Fun Fun Fest, and this Sunday, Ghostface Killah (a.k.a. Dennis Coles) rolls into town in support of his brand new record Ghostdini: The Wizard of Poetry in Emerald City. The album finds Ghostface venturing into the R&B realm and collaborating with the likes of John Legend, Kanye West, and Raheem “Radio” DeVaughn, who guests on the auto-tuned first single “Baby.”

Ghostface has been one of Wu-Tang’s most prolific members, releasing eight solo full-lengths, starting with the stellar Ironman in 1996, and has contributed to a number of compilations. He has showcased his versatility throughout his career, delivering cameos (usually as himself) in a few movies (including 2007’s Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story) as well as a handful of T.V. shows and video games. His greatest talent, however, is exhibited in his music -- head down to Emo’s this Sunday and enjoy a smorgasbord of flowing verses and pulsating beats.
