While Sheek and Ghostface released their collaborative "Wu Block" album in 2012, there is still much to be said about the two veterans from the two of most iconic rap groups of all time. Sheek and Ghostface chatted with Dominique Zonyee, exclusively, to talk the Wu Tang Clan Reunion Tour, "Supreme Clientele 2", longevity in the industry, "We Are The Streets 2," and more.
"We definitely have a lot in store," Ghostface said of he and Sheek's upcoming reunions. "With the Wu Tang tour you never know what you are going to get , we haven't even started arranging our tour-but it going to be amazing." As expected, what would a Wu Tang tour be if they just stuck to the script? With 20 years in the game Ghostface and Wu Tang are pros at stage presence and keeping their loyal fans coming back for more.
"When you look at Wu Tang we are just as live and energetic as the younger cats," Ghostface said, "We have been doing this for so long, that it's nothing... like second nature."

Ghostface's tenth studio album, "Ten Reasons To Die," executive produced and narrated by RZA featured appearances from fellow Wu Tang members Inspectah Deck and U-God. While Ghostface's elaborate solo career, remains a staple in the hip-hop index, it was his 2000 Supreme Clientele release that showcased his diverse uptempo flow.
"Yea I'm working on another Supreme Clientele," Killah said. "I have a lot of tracks done, but after the Wu Tang tour I will take time to put it all together." Although he said that he had feature artists in mind, he wants to wait until the album is closer to competition before inviting other artists on the tracks. "I want to say that the album is coming out this year, but it depends on my schedule with Wu Tang."
While Ghostface prepares for the "Wu Tang Clan 20th Anniversary Tour", Sheek Louch is preparting to reunite with Jadakiss and Styles P for their highly anticipated " We Are The Streets 2" album.
"We just finished four more tracks," Sheek said of the group's progress. "One with Kanye and another one with Timbaland, so we are closer to completion than ever."
The Lox have been on a 13-year hiatus since the 2000 release of "We Are The Streets," but Sheek said that their fans are more loyal than ever."This album is going to be crazy, because when you think about The Lox fans, they want that real hardcore sh*t," Sheek said. "Our music takes people through tough times, we have fans in jail like 'yo your music got me through this'."
The Lox are not only making a comeback with "We Are The Streets 2," the Yonkers trio already joined forces withnew music featured on Funk Master Flex's mixtape, "What You Mad At? Me Or Ya Self?" "Yea, I am excited for the video shoot next week," Sheek said, "That's just a preview of what we have in store for our album."
