[edit] New Album: D.A.R.T.S

Are you guys gonna add it here? It's listed as 'import' on amazon, and i think it's currently not released worldwide? what's up? -SG —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.234.161.70 (talk) 16:11, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Wrongful Redirecting?

Why does a search for Maximillion redirect to this article?

-- maximillion is one of gza's aliases

[edit] Birthdate?

Can somebody find a birthdate for GZA? Blastfromthepast 05:07, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps the provided "Shadowboxing" sound clip is not the best example of Gza's music . . . considering Gza isn't even in the clip. The voice is that of Method Man, who is featured on the single. -- 68.115.95.184 8 July 2005 04:50 (UTC)

I replaced it with a sample of GZA on Ghostface's "Wu Banga 101". Not his own song, I know, but it serves its purpose of letting people find out what he sounds like. --Jamieli 8 July 2005 15:42 (UTC)

Isn't reducing "The Genius" to an alias a little bit weird, since it's included even on most album covers and since his record label's site says "GZA/Genius"? http://www.mcarecords.com/artistMain.asp?artistid=100 .. I'd rather say that GZA is aka "GZA/Genius" than "The Genious"..--Jacob no. 9 10:02, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

"GZA/Genius" is just "GZA, also known as Genius". Genius was his name before he took the name GZA. --Jamieli 12:40, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

GZA (musician)GZA — The musician was mistakenly moved from GZA to Gary Grice on May 12 in order to create a dab page. He is almost always known as GZA, and his page was subsequently moved to GZA (musician). Incoming links to GZA overwhelmingly for the musician, so I have moved the dab to GZA (disambiguation). The musician's page should come back to the plain title, though. —Dekimasuよ! 03:13, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Support as primary use. Significantly less hits and incoming links for Greater Zurich Area, and only a code for the airport. Can have hatnotes at the top to avoid the disambiguation page altogether. –Pomte 07:40, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

This article has been renamed from GZA (musician) to GZA as the result of a move request. --Stemonitis 07:56, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vegetarian/McDonalds

Someone added "Gza is a known fan of McDonalds even tho he is a vegetarian." under the technique section. Even though I looked it up and both are true, I removed it because it has no place in technique and I couldn't think of another place to put it. If someone wants to write one or both of these facts somewhere else, please do. M.nelson (talk) 06:32, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
