wugazi

The name sounds like a bizarre Fugazi/Wu-Tang Clan mash-up and there's a reason for that - it is....and it's very good indeed. In their own words:

Wugazi is a labor of love by Cecil Otter and Swiss Andy. A year’s worth of cutting up every imaginable Fugazi record and trying out every Wu-Tang acapella they could get their hands on, resulted in Wugazi: 13 Chambers (a must listen for anyone who even looked at a skateboard in the 90’s).Cecil Otter is an emcee and producer, and one of the founding members of Doomtree. He has contributed to over a dozen records. His most recent full-length, Rebel Yellow, was re-released by Sage Francis for Strange Famous Records. He’s now recording his solo project, Porcelain Revolver. Swiss Andy is a musician and producer residing in Minneapolis. He has been a contributor to several bands including The Millionth Word, Field Guide and The Swiss Army. He is currently working on a remix of Rebel Yellow.

It's all downloadable here and more details can be found at their website www.wugazi.com Just check out how good "Another Chessboxin' Argument" is.
