Overview
- On July 16 at Madison Square Garden, all eight surviving Wu-Tang Clan members shared the stage for what was billed as their final collective performance on the farewell tour.
- Run the Jewels opened the show before guest stars such as The LOX, Havoc, Redman, Lil Kim, Big Daddy Kane, Slick Rick and SWV joined the Clan for a series of collaborative sets.
- RZA framed the concert as a tribute to five decades of hip-hop, honoring icons including Nate Dogg, Nipsey Hussle, Guru, Phife Dawg and Biz Markie while Young Dirty Bastard led an Ol’ Dirty Bastard segment.
- The two-hour setlist spanned group classics and solo hits—culminating in the 1997 anthem “Triumph”—after which each member received a commemorative plaque.
- Despite a few audio-level issues that muffled horns and strings, the show’s unity and festive tone underscored the Clan’s cohesion ahead of the tour’s final two dates, ending July 18 in Philadelphia.
