RZA "VICTORY OR DEATH" ARTWORK



Wu-Tang co-founder and frontman The RZA recently unveiled his first foray into art (just after announcing his first foray into filmmaking) a painting so grand and momentous that it's been twenty years in the making. "Victory or Death" (excerpted at right, in full after the jump) is the RZArector's epic appropriation and Wu-flavored remixing of Emanuel Leutze's already epic "George Washington Crossing the Delaware," except here G-Dub has become RZA, the chap right behind him is now Wu co-founder GZA and the late ODB replaces the fellow standing in front of them below the flag, whose stars have been replaced by Wu-Tang Ws.
