Oliver “Power” Grant, the business mastermind behind the Wu-Tang Clan, has died at the age of 52.
News of Grant’s passing was made public on Tuesday (February 24), although a cause of death is currently unknown.
Tributes have poured in from various Wu-Tang members as well as the wider hip-hop community, with Method Man sharing a photo of him and Power on Instagram along with a heartfelt message.
“Paradise my Brother safe Travels!! [broken heart emojis] [angry face emoji] #pookie #power Bruh I am not ok .. [raincloud emoji],” he wrote.
RZA expressed his grief by posting a black square soundtracked by Boyz II Men‘s “It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday” and accompanied by the caption “5” — a nod to the Five-Percent Nation’s Supreme mathematics which inspired Power’s nickname.
