So, we told the unfortunate story about Chris Bearer and his failed suicide attempt, but successful Lorrena Bobbit attempt a few days ago… Well, Wu Tang member Rza spoke out and said some really interesting things about his memory of a young and talented Chris. He also spoke on why he doesn’t like the press calling him a “Wu Tang Affiliate”! Check out what he had to say!
“Christ Bearer is a tragic story because it’s still the same situation: a guy we gave a chance to,” RZA says in an interview with XXL. “If I remember that deal back in the day, I remember they signed for, like, $150,000, a record deal from some young guys from Long Beach, Cali. He had a partner named Meko. I liked those guys. I liked what they stood for, young guys trying. I can’t wait to really hear the whole story. It’s sad that it’s Wu-Tang affiliated. It’s like dirty press in a way. I want to know what the fuck moved him to do those things.”
I feel sad for his family,” RZA says. “I know he has children…I thought he was a smarter guy than a guy who would do something crazy like that. But at the same time, he been in jail recently, he’s been in trouble. Maybe he’s mentally unstable. Maybe the mental health system should have took a look at him and said, ‘You know what? We got to hold on to this guy for a little longer.’ Because it’s not any sanity; even if you high, this shit don’t sound sane. This sounds more than high. It sound like mental problems or something that was bothering this man’s mind, and he needed help. It’s sad. I send my respect out to his family.”
Puzzling stories pop up like this ever so often, and it leaves you stuck like…. WTF? You never know who’s suffering from an unhealthy mind so, Beware.
