Wu-Tang Clan dropped some exciting news for fans Tuesday (May 14) and have announced that they will be releasing a new EP. The EP is inspired by Of Mics and Men, the four-part docuseries on the hip-hop group that premiered the week of May 6 on Showtime.

The EP will be released on Friday (May 17), on the same day Part Two of the docuseries airs. The group took to Twitter to make the announcement captioning, “You’ve seen episode 1/ Wu documentary by now (and if you haven’t, what were you doing last weekend), now listen to the music inspired by the series. On Friday, we’re coming with a new Wu-Tang EP from @36ChambersALC and Mass Appeal, so let your boss know you’ll be in late to work.”

 

This past October, Hulu announced a 10-episode series based on the group called Wu-Tang: An American Saga. Wu-Tang Clan are currently on tour celebrating the 25th anniversary of their debut album, Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers), which kicks off its North American leg on May 31st at Freedom Hill Amphitheatre in Sterling Heights, Michigan.
