Wu-Tang Clan is a rather amorphous group of artists that interact together and from time to time produce an album.

I think what they are trying to say is someone on the periphery of this group produced an album and presented it as a Wu-Tang creation without their permission.

The person(s) responsible got around their legalities by offering only a single copy for $2 million dollars.

The buyer can do whatever he wishes with it EXCEPT make copies.................

I had a member ask me to deal drugs out of my cab for them on staten island about 25 years ago.

I passed.

“EXCEPT”

He can distribute it for free. There’s the hope: some rich arts patron will buy it and release it to the public domain (or CC). Being intrigued by the distribution model used, and moderately appreciative of Wu-Tang’s work, I’m hoping someone will do so (or at least do something appreciative & interesting with it, not just use it as a coaster).

I remain unconvinced by the complaints, considering this album has been well-publicized for several years. There’s no way they didn’t know about its production & sale at the time. Strange that _now_ someone pipes up and complains about missing a rather lucrative cut/contract.
