Among the most significant rap groups of the 1990s, the Wu-Tang Clan is rarely seen in full force as it’s simply too hard to coordinate 9 schedules and the individual artists’ obligations. So when the Wu set up the Iron Flag in Sydney, Australia on Thursday, they settled for a third of the full group, with Ghostface Killa, GZA and Inspectah Deck holding down the fort and rocking some fresh kicks.
