What do you get when take Wu-Tang and mix it together with some heavyweight jazz artists, you get Shaolin Jazz. It is the brain child of brainchild of Gerald Watson and DJ 2-Tone Jones, they combine sampled Jazz instrumentals over Wu-tang lyrics. Shaolin Jazz’s newest project is a tribute EP to the late Donald Byrd. The second single is The Shimmy Roll which combines Old Dirty Bastard’s Shimmy Shimmy Ya and Byrd’s Jelly Roll. The new single is dope, I love their creativity and various arrangements which gives props to both artists. Highly Recommended!
