The show’s soundtrack, RZA Presents…Afro-Samurai: Resurrection includes appearances from the likes of Ghostface (“Whar”), Rah Digga (“B***h Gonna Get Ya”), Kool G Rap (“You Already Know”) and even Sly Stone on “Blood Thicker Than Mud (Family Affair).”

Another heads up from schoki. This time a new Afro Samurai track with Kool G Rap & Ghostface. And if I recall correctly it has been a long time coming since Ghost and RZA both appeared on a track, as RZA himself said.

RZA – Whar ft. Ghostface, Kool G Rap

Plus GZA – 7 Pounds Remix ft. Bronze Nazareth
