November 9 will officially be known as Wu-Tang Clan Day moving forward. The honorary day was bestowed upon the Staten Island rap group by New York City Mayor Eric Adams.<\/p>\n

The day coincides with the 30th anniversary of the group\u2019s debut album, Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). Released in 1993 via BMG, RCA Records and Loud Records, the LP was executive produced by frontman RZA and established the Wu-Tang as a legitimate New York hip-hop act.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, November 9, Legacy Records will be rolling out a special edition of Enter the Wu-Tang on vinyl. The box set will also contain a pack of album-themed trading cards, along with a book of notes on the LP, photos and interviews with RZA.<\/p>\n

To top it off, the Empire State Building in Manhattan will be lit up in black and yellow \u2013 the colors of Wu-Tang \u2013 tomorrow to commemorate the anniversary. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
