Ghostface Killah at B.B. King Blues Club & Grill
Wu-Tang’s most endearing alumnus loves to throw curveballs. Witness a recent album of love songs, which received high marks in TONY, or the above “Ghost Story” (involving a MiniKiss melee), which the MC shared on a recent episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! Expect sundry surprises tonight, as Ghostface hits Times Square in the company of as-yet-unannounced special guests.
