PURCHASE: Physical CD | Amazon | iTunes | Bandcamp
Multi talented producer/MC MeccaGodZilla recently donned the moniker RYU BLACK as a tribute to the 20 year anniversary of the Capcom’s Streetfighter II video game. On May 17, 2011 RYU BLACK’s debut musical titled “PERFECT 天” will feature a star studded indie cast including nerdcore veteran MegaRan, Canadian phenom Masia One, DC/Vertigo’s Ron Wimberly, Tokyo’s Mrs. Beatz aka DJ TOMOKO, ATL’s Arablak, Toronto Songstress Mariannie, Fresh Vetz’ Dashah and many more. The full-length, limited edition musical on CD (illustrated by Ron Wimberly) plays out as an audio story to give the listener a full cinematic experience.
Imagine if RYU was consulted by Talib Kweli for rhymes, RZA for beatmaking tips & Dalai Lama on how to be a better humanitarian. You’d have an incredible warrior. “I was inspired to hear…a new personality, Ryu Black…Check out the killer love song to Chun Li…” – Lucas Siegel [Newsarama.com]
“‘PERFECT 天’ is a soundtrack inspired by the story lines of Streetfighter” (says Cavalier of NRO) consisting of 15 songs. It is considered to be a nostalgic and adventurous experience dedicated to the fans of Streetfighter II anime and game play. Originally scheduled for 1-11-11, “PERFECT 天” was rescheduled to get the full support of Ovarian Cancer Canada, the only national charity in Canada dedicated to solely overcoming ovarian cancer.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Ovarian Cancer Canada, Haiti and most recently Japan’s relief Earthquake and Tsunami relief efforts. “While living in Japan, Tokyo opened it’s arms to me with full support. I got to model with Tokyo Street brand Applebum, appear in a few magazines, work with a great producer from the Japanese label Jazzy Sport, and really connect with the Hip Hop scene. Japan is beautiful and I want to give back. I will commit to donating proceeds to Japan for the lifetime of the “PERFECT 天” musical, in addition to Haiti and Ovarian Cancer Canada for sure.” – RYU BLACK
