Did Trump curse the New York Knicks, and did the Wu-Tang Clan then break that curse with a wild Game 3 halftime show, leading to the franchise’s first championship in 53 years? We are not experts on magic — but yes, 100%, there can be no scientific doubt. Now the Staten Island Shaolin are taking a victory lap on behalf of their team and their city, including a special NYC-themed medley on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
After Ghostface Killah led things off with a new twist on an old classic, “Bring da New York City Ruckus,” RZA warned that “New York City ain’t nothin’ to futz with,” because not all the PG versions can be winners. But hey, even the Knicks dropped a game, going 5-1, exactly as Method Man predicted during that now-legendary halftime show.
Speaking of M-E-T-H-O-D Man, he spit a bit of his title song, because what could be more New York than talking your shit? Finally Raekwon closed things down with “C.R.E.A.M.” leading the studio audience in chants of “Dollar, dollar bill, y’all!” With Wu-Tang Clan around to break curses, The Big Apple has all the juice. Check out the performance below.
