A wise man once said, "Yo, Moms and Pops, I suggest you hide your daughters, cuz what we got is a little more intense than cops and robbers, cuz we got 6 KILLA MC's SPITTING HOTTER THAN BOILING HOT WATER, and when we're done here, it's gonna be a pussy slaughter." The Pu-Tang Clan was formed to combat the evils of the post-good rap era. MGA probably says it best in his verse from Show the Pussy Love (With a Baseball Bat):

 

“Rocking the Pu-Tang from Burgs to Techs

It's some sick, nasty shit with some redic specs

It's audio elation when these boys come together

Erectile sensation with hoes in laces and leather…”

 

With the recent death of O.D.B. (R.I.P.) and DMX's issues with the legal system, modern day rap hit a decline and has reached, in our opinion, an all-time low. Without these Record Label Warriors, and with rap CEO Russell Simmons trying to ban words like nigga, bitch, jew, and hoe from rap music, fans today are just getting more and more fed up with the rap game and are calling for a change. The kind of change that can only be brought about by some sick, nasty shit with some redic specs. At a time when the industry needs some major audio elation, the Pu-Tang Clan has garnered a cast of rappers with enough MC Gusto to pull it off. Ever since the turn of the Willennium, the industry has been flooded by a whole new generation of bullshit rappers and other black performers like Fat Joe, 50 Cent with G-Unit, Rihanna, The Game, Beyonce, Usher, P. Diddy, Justin Timberlake, The Black Eyed Peas, Kanye West, Ciara, T-Pain, and Jay-Z is trying to come back when he never should have started rapping. We need a new breed of rapper to North Carolina Come On and Raise Up (just like Petey Pablo would do), rappers with balls that hang low enough to step up and fill the shoes of the greats like Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, The Wu-Tang Clan, N.W.A., Brotha Lynch Hung, Coolio, Ice Cube, House of Pain, and Naughty by Nature.  Rappers who can put an end to all the nonsense of Laffy-Taffying and Walking it Out. There are still some good quality rappers out there (Ludacris, Lil Jon, DMX, the Ying Yang Twins, Lil Wayne, and 36 Mafia) and some of the old dinosaurs who have started to suck (Snoop Dogg), and we invite them to join us in taking back the airwaves and using the radio as a means of spreading our lyrically explicit messages aimed at corrupting America's youth.

 

The name Pu-Tang Clan actually came about after the group cut their first single, Beat the Pussy Up (With a Baseball Bat). The similarities to the Wu-Tang Clan were uncanny, so naturally the first suggestion for a group name was The Wu-Tang Clan II. After all, we were after the same thing as the Wu-Tang:

 

"Domination baby, right now, right now, we still, we still ain't gettin what we want. When we get, when we get, when we get a little props and we really really get to where we gotta go, that's when you know it's on. You know what I'm sayin? Cuz right about now, I ain't braggin or nothin, but yo, The Wu, The Wu, got somethin that I know that everybody wanna hear, cuz I know I been waitin to hear. You know what I'm sayin? But straight up and down, til we get the gold, we gon' keep going. Cuz we tryin to do all this, we tryna make a business outta this, man, we ain't tryna, you know what i'm sayin? Affiliate ourselves with them fake ass A and R's and all that (word), we tryna make our own shit. THIS IS LONGEVITY RIGHT HERE. So that when our children, word, so that when our children, you know? and our seeds or whatever, they got somethin for themselves right there. We ain't tryna hop in and hop out, like, you know what I'm sayin? We tryna stay here. We out for the Gusto, man, and we gonna keep it raw, you know what I'm sayin?"

 

We realized though almost immediately that The Wu-Tang Clan II probably wouldn't fly, so as we all sat there thinking about the song we had just recorded, which focused heavily on Pussy, the name Pu-Tang Clan just seemed to fit (“Poontang” or “Pootang” means “Pussy” in Ebonics).
