RZA and Paul Banks Tag Team Spicy Wings | Hot Ones

Wu-Tang Clan sensei RZA and Interpol frontman Paul Banks have been making music together since 2011, but they haven't really tested the bonds of their relationship until now, when Banks dragged RZA into the Hot Ones studio without telling him what was in store. Of course, the Abbot has plenty of Shaolin powers to draw upon while facing down the Scoville sword style of Pain 100% and Mad Dog 357. Find out how the pair do against five wings of death in this week's HOT ONES.

RZA + Paul Banks (Banks & Steelz) Part 1 & Part 2

Banks and Steelz - a musical collaboration between Wu Tang Clan's RZA and Interpol's Paul Banks sat down with Hard Knock Tv's Nick Huff Barili for an in-depth interview. In part 2 of the conversation RZA and Paul share how Elton John, Leonard Cohen and John Frusciante inspired him. As the conversation progresses both artists recall their memories of Prince, David Bowie and Phife Dawg from Tribe Called Quest. Part two takes us back to Paul's childhood and how he was introduced to hip hop through N.W.A and later was influence by Deltron 3030 and Outkast's Stankonia. Much more to come!
