It’s been quite the month for disgraced pharmaceutical exec Martin Shkreli. After his original “claim to fame” was jacking the price of an AIDS/cancer pill from $13.50 to $750 each, he then became known as the guy who purchased the one-of-one, $2 million Wu-Tang album, Once Upon A Time In Shaolin. Reveling in his newfound internet infamy, Shkreli then announced plans to bail out Bobby Shmurda. Things went left shortly afterward, however.
Wu-Tang’s 1-of-1 Million Dollar ‘Once Upon A Time In Shaolin’ Album Has Been Sold
Early last year, the Wu-Tang Clan announced that they’d be getting together for a new album, though this time, it’d be much different than any other project they’d worked on. The 31-song Once Upon A Time In Shaolin was revealed to be a one-of-one, and the only way you could hear it would be by forking over a million dollars…or waiting for 88 years. Welp, the option for the former is now gone, so you’ll have to wait the 88 years until its new owner is allowed to release it to the public. Though the buyer has not been revealed, they’ve been identified as a “private American collector,” and it’s said that they paid “millions” for the album. 31 brand new Wu songs and skits is not all they received, however.
Upcoming Bone Thugs-N-Harmony Album To Be Titled WHAT?!
Although I can’t afford this upcoming piece of work, the thought of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony back in the studio just gives a girl the chills. The 90s group has decided to record a one-copy album and sell it to the highest bidder – around the $1MiL range. Now, Krayzie Bone dishes the dirt and what that lucky bidder can expect in a title as well as tracks. Hit the jump for the deets.
