It's almost time to 'Exit the 36 Chambers.'
This month, Wu-Tang Clan conclude their farewell 'Wu-Tang Forever: The Final Chamber Tour' with special guest Run The Jewels. Then, after that, RZA, GZA, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Method Man, Inspectah Deck, U-God, Masta Killa and Cappadonna along with Young Dirty Bastard will go their separate ways.
However, before calling it quits, the legendary Staten Island-based group have a pair of Tri-state concerts remaining on their itinerary before throwing in the towel.
First up, the 'C.R.E.A.M.' group swoops into New York City's Madison Square Garden on Wednesday, July 16.
Shortly after, the nonet (aka nine-member group) rock Newark, NJ's Prudential Center on Thursday, July 17.
Their tour wraps at Philadelphia's Wells Fargo Arena on Friday, July 18.
'Every show hits different now,' Young Dirty Bastard told The Post in an exclusive interview. 'It's sacred, legacy stamped. When that crowd goes wild and screams ODB, it's spiritual, man. Moms roll through with their babies, kids goin' berserk in the pit. That generational love is real proof that Wu-Tang's for the children, fo' real.'
At all shows, Wu-Tang plays a four-act career-spanning set. Based on our findings at Set List FM, they took 31 songs to the stage at a recent show in Quebec City, Canada, which included fan favorites like 'Bring da Ruckus,' 'Protect Ya Neck,' 'Shimmy Shimmy Ya,' 'Got Your Money' and GZA's classic 'Liquid Swords' among others including a surprise Barbara Streisand cover.
If you want need to be there for these final gigs, last-minute tickets are available.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find for any one of these three shows was for their night in Newark; tickets start at $46 including fees on Vivid Seats.

Is it art or just one big hoax? This rising AI band could be both

Of this year. How is it possible that one group of musicians could be so prolific? That's easy. The Velvet Sundown isn't a band at all; it's a cryptic product of artificial intelligence that has amassed nearly 1.4 million monthly Spotify listeners. When the band's brocade-wallpaper music first materialized on streaming services little more than a month ago, many listeners were intrigued. Who were these guys? Judging by a playlist image of the group on Spotify, four air-brushed looking dudes with middle parts in their hair and mellow vibes in their genes. Where did they come from? (Clearly a mythical, middle-of-the-road California from the era of the Ford Pinto.) Advertisement After a brief online campaign insisting that this was a real band, a man calling himself Andrew Frelon appeared to come clean, claiming that the Velvet Sundown phenomenon is an 'art hoax.' Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up 'We live in a world now where things that are fake have sometimes even more impact than things that are real,' Frelon, who called himself the band's spokesperson, Ironically, it turns out, we have to ask if Frelon himself was for real. After Rolling Stone interviewed the 'spokesperson,' the X account that claims to speak for the 'real' Velvet Sundown Advertisement 'Someone is attempting to hijack the identity of The Velvet Sundown by releasing unauthorized interviews, publishing unrelated photos, and creating fake profiles claiming to represent us,' the post read in part. It gets weirder. The self-professed spokesperson with the assumed name recently published a piece on Whoever is behind the band and whatever their intent, for Berklee College of Music professor Jonathan Wyner, the music is forgettable. 'My initial thought was, I don't really understand what the big deal is, because it's really not very good,' he told the Globe. A 'I generally approach this technology as a way to workshop an idea or create a demo,' Wyner said. 'I'm not so interested in representing that as the final version of something.' 'But I don't necessarily have a hard ethical or moral stance on that,' Wyner added. 'I'm not going to say that people shouldn't enjoy it.' So far it's likely the curiosity factor, more than any deep enthusiasm for the music, that has driven the kind of streaming numbers feeding the buzz about this 'band.' The project's most popular song, 'Dust on the Wind,' is typical of the plug-and-play Mad Libs quality of the lyrics: 'Smoke will clear/ Truth won't bend/ Let the song fight/ 'Til the end,' sings the band's gently drawling 'frontman,' credited as Mellotron player Gabe Farrow. Advertisement This is certainly not the first time the music industry has grappled with deception. Wyner said he was disappointed as a kid when he learned that Musician Nathan Richer is a member of the Lowell-based band Burp. and studied sound recording technology at UMass Lowell. In one class, he learned about the Like a lot of his friends, Richer listened to the Velvet Sundown's music when he first heard about it a few weeks ago. 'I feel like there's so much generic rock music already out there,' he said. 'The difference [between that and the Velvet Sundown] is pretty much nothing.' He said he has no problem with an AI user prompting a music creation platform such as There should be a disclaimer, he said: 'Hey, this is an experiment I'm doing.' In the studio, Richer sometimes uses AI-driven stem splitters to separate the components of an audio file. (That's the technology that was used to isolate the late John Lennon's vocals from a rough demo tape 'If you're using AI to influence your own creativity, then I feel there's almost zero wrong with that,' Richer said. 'But I do have a lot of worries about the sanctity of art. If you're convoluting what is truth, that's what I'm most scared about.' Advertisement The Boston-based musician and author Damon Krukowski has studiously avoided engaging with the Velvet Sundown's fast-growing catalog. But as an avowed critic of streaming services and their impact on working musicians, he sees the inevitability of computer-produced music as one more example of the mounting impediments to the creative sector's livelihood. 'AI is the least of it, in many ways — or anyway it's consistent with the anti-artist, pro-capital way that these platforms function as a whole,' Krukowski wrote in an email. 'I am very engaged with trying to establish regulation for these platforms through the Living Wage for Musicians Act, which would create a direct payment to human recording artists from streaming for the first time. It's insane that we don't have that already.' Richer said he recently listened to a podcast episode in which the hosts discussed a sitcom that was created by feeding an AI tool with thousands of hours of classic TV shows. The hosts, he said, were exasperated with the result, 'because it was good.' Previous attempts, he said, had been funny 'because they were bad. But when it has the ability to analyze millions of hours of human content, it can be so close that it's frightening.' That explains plenty about how the Velvet Sundown 'kerfuffle' (as Krukowski called it) has inspired such an outpouring of commentary. The music is not good… but it is also not altogether bad. 'The fire that Napster and then Spotify created has been building,' said Wyner, the Berklee professor. 'And AI-generated music is about to pour gas on that fire. In terms of flooding the market with quasi-listenable music, fast — from that perspective, I'm alarmed.' Advertisement

Inside West Africa's SMM boom: How Nigerian and Ghanaian creators are using panels like The Kclaut to faster and smarter

The digital revolution sweeping across West Africa has birthed a new generation of savvy content creators who refuse to play by old rules. From the bustling streets of Lagos to the vibrant neighborhoods of Accra, Nigerian and Ghanaian creators are rewriting the playbook on social media growth, and platforms like TheKclaut are their secret weapons. Gone are the days when building a substantial social media following required years of grinding in obscurity. Today's West African digital entrepreneurs have discovered the power of SMM panels – sophisticated platforms that deliver authentic engagement at lightning speed, transforming unknown accounts into influential brands overnight. The West African Creator Renaissance Within the modern digital economy, visibility equals viability – a truth that West African creators have mastered brilliantly. The region's creative economy is exploding, with Nigeria's entertainment industry alone valued at over $6.4 billion. Ghanaian creators and their Nigerian counterparts have positioned themselves at the forefront of this transformation, driving innovation and setting new standards for digital influence. From Afrobeats artists breaking into global charts to fashion influencers setting trends that ripple across continents, these creators leverage this fundamental understanding to build powerful digital empires.. TheKclaut stands out as exactly that kind of strategic partner – the cheapest SMM panel in Africa that truly understands West African creators' ambitions. By democratizing access to professional-grade social media growth tools that were once reserved for major brands with massive budgets. This accessibility has leveled the playing field, allowing talented creators from Kano to Kumasi to compete with established international influencers. You can also see ' how How theKclaut Became a Powerhouse in Social Media Marketing' here The platform's fully integrated API means creators can automate their growth strategies, focusing their energy on what matters most – creating compelling content that resonates with their audiences. Whether it's a Lagos-based fashion designer showcasing traditional Nigerian textiles with contemporary twists, or a Ghanaian musician blending highlife with modern trap beats, these creators are leveraging technology to amplify their authentic voices. Smart Scaling Strategies That Actually Work The most successful West African creators aren't buying followers randomly but are implementing sophisticated strategies that maximize their return on investment. TheKclaut's mass order feature has become particularly popular among creators managing multiple campaigns simultaneously, allowing them to orchestrate complex growth strategies across various platforms. Take the example of rising Afrobeats sensation Kwame Asante (not his real name), a Ghanaian artist who used TheKclaut to strategically boost his TikTok presence just before releasing his debut single. By timing his TikTok likes purchases with his content drops, he created a snowball effect that caught the algorithm's attention. Within three months, his organic reach increased by 400%, leading to a record deal with a major African label. Nigerian creators are particularly innovative in their approach to Instagram followers acquisition. Rather than purchasing followers in bulk, many successful influencers use TheKclaut's single order feature to gradually build their audience, maintaining healthy engagement rates that keep the Instagram algorithm happy. The child panel feature has sparked an entirely new entrepreneurial ecosystem, with tech-savvy creators in cities like Abuja and Tema launching their own SMM reseller businesses, creating additional revenue streams while helping other creators scale. The Technology Behind the Movement What sets TheKclaut Social media Panel apart from countless competitors comes down to sophisticated technology powering the platform. The fully integrated API allows creators to seamlessly incorporate social media growth into their broader digital marketing strategies, while the user-friendly interface ensures that even creators without technical backgrounds can harness its power. The platform's commitment to delivering authentic followers has earned it a reputation as a trusted SMM panel among West Africa's most discerning creators. Unlike platforms that rely on bot networks, TheKclaut focuses on real engagement from actual users, ensuring that growth translates into meaningful business results. Security remains paramount, with robust data protection measures ensuring that creators' accounts and sensitive information remain safe. This reliability has made it the top SMM panel in Nigeria/Africa, with creators confidently scaling their presence without fear of account suspensions or data breaches. The numbers tell a compelling story. Creators using TheKclaut report average engagement increases of 300% within their first month, with many achieving viral status within weeks of implementing strategic growth campaigns. But beyond the metrics lies something more profound – the democratization of influence in West Africa. Young entrepreneurs who once needed connections in traditional media industries can now build their own platforms, reaching global audiences directly. A Ghanaian fashion designer can showcase her creations to fashion enthusiasts in New York, while a Nigerian comedian can build an international following from his bedroom in Port Harcourt. Twitter followers acquisition has proven particularly valuable for thought leaders and business executives looking to establish their professional presence. Many successful West African entrepreneurs credit their early Twitter growth, facilitated by platforms like TheKcalut, with opening doors to international partnerships and investment opportunities. The Future of West African Digital Influence As we look ahead, the trajectory is clear: West Africa's creator economy will continue its explosive growth, with SMM panels like TheKclaut serving as crucial infrastructure supporting this digital renaissance. The combination of authentic talent, strategic technology use, and platforms that understand the unique needs of African creators creates a perfect storm for continued innovation. The most exciting developments lie ahead. As 5G networks expand across the region and smartphone penetration reaches new heights, the potential for West African creators to influence global culture will only intensify. TheKclaut's position as the cheapest and most reliable SMM panel in the region ensures it will remain central to this transformation. For aspiring creators across Nigeria, Ghana, and beyond, the opportunity has never been clearer. TheKclaut offers the complete arsenal needed to dominate every major platform: Instagram followers that build credibility overnight, TikTok likes that trigger viral momentum, and Twitter followers that establish thought leadership across industries. Whether you're launching your first campaign with a single order or scaling multiple accounts through mass orders, the platform's streamlined approach means you can focus on creating while your numbers grow strategically. The child panel option even allows successful creators to build their own SMM businesses, turning their growth expertise into additional revenue streams. West African creators leading this transformation understand that platforms like TheKclaut serve as powerful amplifiers for authentic talent. The cheapest SMM panel in Ghana doesn't mean compromising on quality – it means democratizing access to professional-grade growth tools that were once exclusive to major brands. Your authentic voice combined with TheKclaut's strategic boost creates an unstoppable formula. In West Africa's rapidly evolving digital landscape, the creators seizing these opportunities today are building tomorrow's cultural empires.

How Trump's arts funding cuts are impacting Pennsylvania

More than 90% of Pennsylvania's art and cultural institutions expect to be impacted by the Trump administration's cuts to arts funding, per a new PA Humanities' CultureCheck report. Why it matters: It's another hit to the performing arts sector — which is recovering from the pandemic and trying to lure audiences back in. The big picture: Of the more than 400 organizations surveyed, 62% said the funding cuts could force them to postpone or cancel programming, per the report. About half of those organizations said their attendance levels hadn't returned to pre-pandemic levels. Zoom in: Many Philly organizations have scrambled to fill budget holes after learning their funding was rescinded from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), which advocates warn could face more cuts. Philly-based PA Humanities, which supports arts, culture and civic engagement, had its operating grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) terminated this year — a move that cut off 60% of the org's annual budget, Axios Pittsburgh's Chrissy Suttles reports. Meanwhile, the Trump administration has said the funding cuts are part of a broader effort to reduce what it considers wasteful government spending. By the numbers: Pennsylvania has received more than $123 million in federal arts funding since 2020 — critical dollars since the state's per-capita spending (91 cents) is significantly less than neighboring states like New Jersey ($4.45), New York ($4.45) and Maryland ($5.63). Between the lines: The organizations in Pennsylvania's arts and culture sector aren't just sources of entertainment. Last year, 43% of organizations surveyed said they offered some type of mental-health-related programming, up from 29% in 2023. What they're saying: The cuts could "erase years of hard-won progress," Patricia Wilson Aden, president and CEO of the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance, tells Axios.
