“Homecoming Week” in New York City is going to have a strong Wu presence. The lineups for the Big Apple’s series of concerts taking place in August have been revealed and are strictly hip-hop with the mighty Wu-Tang Clan leading the pack.

Tickets are free and will be released to the public in batches on Aug. 2 at 10 a.m. EDT at NYC.gov/HomecomingWeek. All attendees will be required to show proof of vaccination. (CBS2)

The lineups feature legendary artists like Wu-Tang Clan’s Raekwon and Ghostface Killah. Other iconic acts include KRS One, Big Daddy Kane, Desiigner, EPMD, Mobb Deep, and more.

Fake Wu-Tang + JAY-Z Affiliate Heads To Prison


It’s a hard knock life for a man who had a short run pretending to be a JAY-Z Roc Nation affiliate and Wu-Tang Clan associate. Reports from earlier in the year saw a Florida man heading to prison for nearly 10 years as a result of his scam.

According to reports, 29-year-old Aaron Barnes-Burpo received a 7-year federal prison sentence in March 2021 after pleading guilty to committing wire fraud. A co-conspirator is also awaiting sentencing.

The swindlers’ triumph came to a halt Nov. 21, 2019, when their so-simple deception seemed off to hotel staff at a Fairfield Inn and Suites in Augusta, Ga. Barnes-Burpo claimed to be with Roc Nation, an entertainment and management company founded by Jay-Z, when he tried to book 10 rooms and have a $2,500 credit applied to a king suite for an artist and his entourage, according to the complaint. He would provide a credit card number for authorization as long as they didn’t charge it, he told staffers, because he was planning to pay with a certified check at the end of the stay.

A bogus Roc Nation e-mail account was used during the scam. However, a hotel executive at a Georgia spot ultimately caught wind of something fishy happening.

[email protected] emailed the hotel with a credit authorization form that showed the credit card was linked to a Kansas address and identified the guest as “Rocnation/WuTangClan,” according to court documents. The hotel’s director of sales noticed the same group had tried to book rooms weeks before. She called a legal representative at Roc Nation, who confirmed that the entertainment agency had received several calls about the scam from four or five hotels. (Washington Post)
