The documentary, directed by Wu-Tang Clan’s longtime video director Gerald “Gee-Bee” Barclay and executive produced by RZA, Raekwon, Herman Dawson, and Gano Grills, offers a closer look at Staten Island’s Park Hill neighborhood. “Killa Hill” will showcase J Wils and Levitation’s unique sound as part of its engaging soundtrack. This placement represents a notable milestone in J Wils and Levitation’s careers and has sparked enthusiasm among fans, with increased requests for “Outside” on Hartford’s Hot 93.7 FM playlist.
From Wu-Tang Clan’s Video Director: The “Killa Hill” Documentary
“Killa Hill” chronicles aspects of the rich cultural history of Staten Island’s Park Hill neighborhood, widely recognized as the birthplace of the legendary Wu-Tang Clan. The documentary provides a perspective shaped by notable figures with deep connections to the area, including Wu-Tang members RZA and Raekwon, who serve as executive producers. The film examines how this community played a role in nurturing one of hip-hop’s most influential collectives and explores the neighborhood’s lasting influence on music, art, and culture beyond its geographical boundaries.
Park Hill: A Cross-Generational Appeal
What makes the Park Hill neighborhood’s legacy so compelling is its ongoing influence across generations of artists. From the groundbreaking Wu-Tang Clan, who emerged from this community in the early 1990s, to its continued cultural significance today, the area has remained a touchstone through pioneering sounds, distinctive storytelling, and entrepreneurial spirit.
Now, as new generations of artists connected to hip-hop icons begin to carve their own paths, including the children of Wu-Tang members, we’re seeing glimpses of the next chapter in this remarkable cultural saga.
The Flowery Fest Performance Announced
In addition to this notable documentary feature, Levitation and J Wils will be performing live together at this year’s Flowery Fest. The performance is expected to be a highlight, as they share the stage with Wu-Tang Clan’s Kids: Chey (Method Man’s daughter) and Weather Park (Old Dirty Bastard’s son).
This multi-generational lineup reflects both the enduring impact of Wu-Tang Clan and the emerging voices shaping hip-hop’s evolution. The festival appearance offers fans a chance to experience the connection between Wu-Tang’s legacy and contemporary artistic expression through these talented Connecticut artists, who have been gaining traction with recent hits like “Ride The Wave” and “Loving You.”
