Hip-Hop has lost one of its architects.
Oliver “Power” Grant wasn’t just behind Wu-Tang Clan — he helped build the blueprint. As co-founder and executive producer, he played a pivotal role in shaping the sound, strategy, and business structure of one of the most influential groups in music history.
From Staten Island to the world, Power helped turn a raw collective into a global cultural force. He executive produced Wu-Tang’s albums and launched Wu Wear, pioneering artist-driven fashion long before merch became an industry standard.
Tributes poured in from Method Man, Raekwon, DJ Premier and more — honoring not just a businessman, but a brother and visionary.
His impact on hip-hop, entrepreneurship, and culture will echo for generations.
Rest in Powerful Peace. 🕊️
