I thought it was because when they scratched their names on turntables, that was the sound they heard. I could be wrong though.

RZA is short for Rzarektah, but I think it's also short for "Raheem Zigzag Allah" or something crazy like that.

"then my teacher in islam had us removing the S's. he was saying "we dont need no S anymore. we're completing ourselves with a Z". in divine mathetmatics, the Z stands for Zig Zag Zig, which means knowledge, wisdom and understanding,- the last letter of the alphabet and the final step of consciousness. so finally i just thought of the name as letters, not a word, R Z A. It stands for Ruler-Knowledge-Wisdom-and-Understanding-Allah"

"justice is his righteous name. the full name is Allah Justice. thats why you look on the cover of "protect ya neck" single, its spelled JIZZA. his name back in the day was Gangsta G and Dirty was the Genius. Then Dirty became the Professor for awhile, and we traded off. Finaly, it was clear who the Genius was".

Someone bought that Wu Tang manual 8)

Must say its a real dope read though, RZA definitely broke down a lot of things about the Wu that I wanted to know, and the bits on his production style and equipment was real dope too.

The difference between Wu-Tang and No Limit, however, is that Wu-Tang actually did make good music at one point.
