Killah Priest is a tangential associate of the Wu-Tang Clan.
The Brooklyn native made his first recorded appearences on
records by such Wu side projects and solo albums as the
Gravediggaz, Ol' Dirty Bastard's Return to the 36 Chambers
and, most importantly, Genius/GZA's seminal Liquid Swords.
His contributions became legendary and paved the way for the
release of his acclaimed debut album, Heavy Mental, in the
spring of 1998.
Born in Brooklyn and raised in Bedford-Stuyvesant and
Brownsville, Killah Priest became infatuated with hip-hop as
a child, listening to old-school and new school acts like
Eric B. & Rakim alike. He also was influenced by local
rappers, like Genius and Onyx's Suave, who would often play
local parties. Killah Priest began working on his rhyming
and eventually earned a considerable reputation in Brooklyn,
but instead of pursuing his musical career further, he took
a sabbatical in order to educate himself, primarily about
religion and history.
Killah Priest returned to rapping in 1995, appearing on
several Wu projects. All of his cameos were noteworthy, but
his role on Liquid Swords earned special attention. By the
end of 1996, he formed his own side project, the Sunz of
Man. In 1997, GZA suggested to Geffen that they sign Killah
Priest, and the label took his advice. Killah worked on the
album with True Master and 4th Disciple, two producers
associated with the Clan. The resulting album, Heavy Mental,
was dense with religious imagery and filled with evocative
sounds. It received excellent reviews upon its March 1998
release and was a respectable commercial success, debuting
at number 24 on the pop charts. Killah Priest issued his
second album, View from Masada, in the spring of 2000,
further bolstering his status as one of the most compelling
solo artists in the Wu-Tang stable.
The new album from Wu-Tang member Killah Priest "Priesthood"
features the guest appearances from The Horsemen (Canibus,
Kurupt, Ras Kass), George Clinton, Maccabees, plus more. He is
also now off Geffen and on the Proverbs Music Label.
Enjoy!
