<\/div>\n

Wu-Tang Clan members RZA<\/a>, Ghostface Killah<\/a> and Cappadonna appear on the new soundtrack to slasher film Thriller<\/em>. The album also includes RZA\u2019s original score for the Dallas Jackson-directed project, which the rapper-producer also acted in and executive-produced.<\/span><\/p>\n

RZA spoke to Entertainment Weekly<\/em><\/a> about the movie, detailing how he juggled those various roles. \u201cDallas Jackson is actually a buddy of mine,\u201d he says. \u201cI met him some years ago, at [Quentin] Tarantino\u2019s house. We became friends. We actually worked on a project together, a rewrite of Ghost Dog<\/em>, and we became good friends. He had this project he was developing and he said he needed a producer to come onboard and help out. He had a horror [killer who was] a guy in a hoodie. It sounded cool to me. It was like, Oh [shit], that\u2019s the new Jason, he\u2019s wearing a [fucking] hood! So, I came on to help out, and as we started going through the process, [he] found more jobs for me to do!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The Wu-Tang visionary noted that Jackson wanted a score that evokes John Carpenter, the iconic director\/composer of horror film Halloween<\/em>. \u201cDallas, he\u2019s a fan of my Gravediggaz music,\u201d he says. \u201cHe was like, \u2018If you could go back into that mindset, I would love for you to score the film for me.\u2019 I also love the Gravediggaz vibe that I had, and so I just went back to that mindset, and, inspired by John Carpenter\u2019s great works over the years in the Seventies and Eighties, I was able to kind of deliver [it]. It maybe reminds me of what they call horror-core. I didn\u2019t call it horror-core. It was coined horror-core by some journalists.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The Thriller<\/em> soundtrack, out now, also features Earth, Hue Hef, the Hoodies and Ol\u2019 Dirty Bastard\u2019s son Young Dirty Bastard.<\/span><\/p>\n

In other RZA-in-the-movies news, the rap legend also appears among the all-star cast in Jim Jarmusch\u2019s upcoming zombie-comedy The Dead Don\u2019t Die<\/em><\/a> opposite Bill Murray, Adam Driver, Tilda Swinton, Chlo\u00eb Sevigny, Danny Glover, Iggy Pop, Selena Gomez and Steve Buscemi.<\/p>\n
