THE DELETED ALBUM CAN BE BOUGTH HERE IN LIMITED EDITION
shakaamazuluthe7th.bandcamp.com/album/gen3s15-deleted-album

The project began with the concept of creating a group to rival my other endeavors, such as Chessmen with The Black Knights and Illuminati Network with Solomon Childs, Dexter Wiggle, and Napoleon. This time, however, I decided to detach myself from production duties and let another producer handle the beats for the entire project.

Staying true to my tradition of structuring all my projects around a trilogy (knowledge, wisdom, and understanding), I partnered with Holy Smokes and a producer from Spain to work on what would become Gen3. We completed a full album and were already working on the second installment when the project came to a halt for reasons I won’t go into. Despite the complications, Smokes and I decided to carry on without the Spanish producer.

This led to the birth of Generation 3, a title inspired by the Marvel superhero group Generation X. They say things happen for a reason, and the end of the Gens project sparked a new idea. The album was initially meant to be called Brotherhood of the Wulf—‘Brotherhood’ representing collaborations with people I’ve worked with over the years, and ‘of the Wulf’ signifying that this time, I would keep it all within the Wu-Tang family. One producer, one engineer to mix it, and another to master it, maintaining the project as a trinity. However, BOTW grew beyond the scope of Gen3, so I reverted to the original idea and reworked the Gen3 project to fit this new evolution.

The completed album has been revamped into a more cohesive and darker project than its original intent. While every contribution that came through Smokes and myself was utilized, the features, sound, and ideas brought by the Spanish producer were all changed.

This time, I took a different approach by co-producing and directing the production—a first for me in any collaboration. I teamed up with the extraordinary producer Su-Preme of Sunz of Man fame, providing the samples, feel, concepts, and ideas, which Preme then interpreted and transformed into finished productions for Series 1 and 2. Trilogy 3 sees less of Preme on board and production mainly handled by Shaka Amazulu The 7th.

The original version -GENESIS- of the album is now released as the bonus, as it’s actually a good project. The first instalment was the beginning of the trilogy. It serves as an EP and a teaser of what’s to come. The second instalment was the complete representation and true definition of Generation 3 and this 3rd and last instalment is the final chapter, and closure to this project and group.

Welcome to Generation 3.
