Frukwan Sunstar (Wu-Tang/Gravediggaz) - The Grand Master Teacher's Guide To Greatness Interview

Aug. 14, 2009 - PRLog -- Frukwan can only be addressed as the True and Living Teacher ( GREATNESS ) when Hip Hop needs a savior- “Frukwan is one of the most powerful and passionate MCs in the I've heard come out of Brooklyn,” said Timmy Grins of the acclaimed Brooklyn hip-hop collective ARCANE. “He has a message and he is not afraid of being who he is to the world.”

Frukwan is one of few rap artists that doesn't need a household name, incessant spins on radio airwaves, or a top 10 video on TRL or 106&Park to earn his respect. Immensely esteemed by many of his contemporaries, Frukwan's presence should rightfully humble the demeanour of anyone with an adept knowledge of hip-hop history. Credited as founding member of the very first Hip-hop band, Stetsasonic, and the soul of underground monsters, the Gravediggaz along side The RZA (Wu-Tang Clan), Poetic, and Prince Paul, the Brooklyn bred MC has already made notable contributions to the hip-hop movement and is not stopping. After 17 years in
the music industry, Frukwan, now known as Frukwan Sun-star and also known as The Multiple Supreme (for his various rhyme patterns), offers a diverse concoction of styles, narratives, and pulsations.
He describes his solo venture as a natural transition.  While remaining introspective Frukwan continues in the Gravedigga tradition “Everybody asks the questions, what's life and what's my life? I kind of made Life as the answers to the questions. Pretty much what I wanted to do was save the babies,” said Frukwan. Unlike most rap artists of today he trusts his own ingenuity, acting as sole producer and performer on his album.
Possibly one reason why Frukwan has a lot to say is because he's encountered his share of trails and tribulations. He looks back on the unfortunate passing of his partner in rhyme, fellow Gravediggaz member, Poetic, to cancer in April of 2002 as one of his biggest learning experiences! Not letting anything hold him back, Frukwan has returned in 2009 with a brand new album rightfully titled "Greatness" that features 10 banging tracks produced by Chicago's 5th Element, E-Mack and so on and has gotten back in touch with The RZA and his extensive Wu-Tang family tree as far as music, collaborations, tours, and just teaching.  Wu-International followed up from the interview conducted about 5 years ago to find out what this master of craft has been up to and fans would be shocked, excited, etertained and educated, at what they hear in reference to his new album, the new Gravediggaz line up and projects with The RZA, Killarmy, Sunz Of Man and Black Knight members, his views on hip-hop, Obama, life and everything else dug to light by this legendary gravedigga MC, Read, enjoy and be edutained!
