Eva Ries: Wu Tang is forever

In the organizer's words:

Faible Booking and Moritzbastei present: Eva Ries - Wu-Tang is forever

In the inner circle of the biggest band in the world

"Only if you stand up to them, don't give in, but act with the same means as they do, can you gain the necessary respect."
Eva Ries

How does a woman become a music manager? And then for the most legendary hip-hop band in the world - known for their non-conformist behavior and brutal lyrics?

Eva Ries is in her late 20s when she receives an offer that will change her career forever: She is to promote and market the Wu-Tang Clan worldwide for the record label Loud/RCA Records in New York City. Working with nine gangsta rappers with criminal records and no experience in hip-hop - will that work?

Eva Ries is in for a culture clash of the highest order: a young German woman from the rock scene meets nine criminals who have revolutionized hip-hop and the hip-hop business. Despite all her doubts, Eva Ries rises to the challenge. Because giving up is not an option!

In her book, the successful businesswoman gives an insight into an unforgettable chapter of her life story: for over two decades, she accompanied the Wu-Tang Clan through highs and lows and earned the respect of the men. With her biography, she tells a piece of music history - personal, unembellished and highly exciting.
