Quote A one-of-a-kind album by the hip-hop group Wu-Tang Clan that was once owned by notorious “Pharma Bro” Martin Shkreli finally has been sold by the U.S. government, three years after Shkreli forfeited the record as part of his conviction for securities fraud. The buyer and the sale price of the album, “Once Upon a Time in Shaolin,” were not revealed Tuesday by prosecutors, who cited a confidentiality provision in the contract.

SuperSpreader Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Wait. So does this mean the owner can put it on Spotify and make money off each listen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloodporne Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 I mean, it's not like this is a 90s Wu-Tang album. Does anyone actually care? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ort Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Their new stuff is still pretty good. I'd like to hear it, although with all of the solo albums and what-not it's not like anyone is hurting for Wu-tang content. There is almost un unlimited supply of it.
