Mathematics took time out of his schedule to meet with fans at Rock and Soul Records in Manhattan to sign limited edition Vinyl LPs of the latest Wu-Tang Clan release, ‘Black Samson, The Bastard Swordsman’ from the ‘Wu-Tang the Saga Continues.’

While at the iconic record store, Mathematics did a DJ set as Wu-Tang Clan’s Cappadonna made an appearance and blessed the mic as an added bonus for Wu-Tang Clan fans.

This collection has been released through RZA’s 36 Chambers as the album features 5,000 unique covers – all one of one – the ultimate collectors piece for a Wu-Tang fan.

The album was produced by Mathematics and features all nine Wu-Tang Clan members along with artists including Kool G. Rap, Nicole Bus, and Benny the Butcher. The exclusive release took place on April 12, 2025.

With ‘Black Samson, The Bastard Swordsman,’ I’m giving fans not just an album, but a piece of history—something truly one of a kind,” said Mathematics. “This is more than music; it’s innovation, storytelling, and legacy all in one. I am excited for everyone to hear the music and see the artwork around this album.”
