Former Wu-Tang member Cappadonna has launched his own record
label entitled Hood’ LLC and is preparing a new solo album.
Cappadonna who was once a part of the infamous Wu-Tang Clan
announced that his new album would be the first release under Hood LLC.
"I am looking at putting out a record around August,"
Cappadonna told AllHipHop.com. "It will definitely come with some originality."
For those wondering if he will re-unite with former group member
and super producer The RZA for beats, it doesn’t look like a possibility, although
Cappadonna said there was no animosity between the two.
Cappadonna shocked the world in June of 2003, when the rapper
resurfaced in Baltimore, Maryland as a cab driver.
The rapper explained
that he intentionally gave up what material possessions he had amassed and walked
the streets of Baltimore for 8 months, before returning to the rap game.
Shortly afterwards
Cappadonna dropped his album, The Struggle.
For his latest untitled album, Cappadonna is seeking a new sound
through new production.
"I am actually looking for new producers," Cappadonna
said. "I want something fresh, something original to really capture my
sound. I really want people to feel where I am coming from and to me the best
way to capture that is to get someone just as hungry as I am, because I know
they will not only feel the struggle but help to bring out the hunger in my
music."
The untitled album is in the beginning stages and no release
date was available as of press time.
