Martin Shkreli is a man of his word, even if it was for one day. The infamous pharmaceutical exec promised last month that if Donald Trump won the presidential election, he would leak the Wu-Tang Clan’s Once Upon A Time In Shaolin to the public.
Well, early this morning (November 9), Trump won the election and Shkreli leaked new Wu-Tang Clan music as he indulged in a Cherry Coke. The clips below feature the new cuts, which Shkreli says are from the intro to the album and the second track as well.
According to Pigeons and Planes, Shkreli said he has to negotiate with Wu-Tang before releasing the full album. He also claimed he had unreleased Tupac, Jimi Hendrix and Nirvana records.
Ok so I have unreleased wu, Beatles, 2pac, nirvana, radiohead, Hendrix, brand new, smiths, Elliot smith, Ramones… What do you want first?

The embattled Pharma bro, who is currently in the midst of fraud legal case, also made a vow to help those who are not happy with Trump get out of the United States. Canada’s Citizenship & Immigration website actually crashed when Trump was about to be named the winner of the election.

So far, no word from Wu-Tang about the leaked music or further negotiations for the full release of Once Upon a Time In Shaolin.
