Once Upon a Time in Shaolin by Cyrus Bozorgmehr
Written in vivid detail, Cyrus Bozorgmehr documents the untold story behind one of the most controversial and innovative album releases in modern music history: Wu Tang Clan's Once Upon a Time in Shaolin.“An epic battle between colorful, creative maniacal heroes and one of the blandest beta-villains of our timeCouldn’t put it down.”
Patton Oswalt, comedian and bestselling author of Silver Screen Fiend
"[An] utterly candid work...Bozorgmehr's stirring account gives readers the insider's view of musical outlaws who possessed the best intentions of elevating hip-hop from its street moorings to more stylish, chic surroundings, and whose efforts exploded in a crisis of bad media coverage and soulless pharmaceutical drug merchants."
