Ghostface Killah will release his memoir next year via St. Martin’s Press, an imprint of publisher Macmillan. Rise of a Killah will be available from May 14 and is described by the publisher as "both visual record and a real-feel narrative of a performer’s life," detailing the rapper's early days on Staten Island and through his time as a member of Wu-Tang Clan.
Wu-Tang memoirs are something of a trend in the book world, with Raekwon releasing From Staircase to Stage: The Story of Raekwon and the Wu-Tang Clan in 2021. U-God, meanwhile, published Raw: My Journey Into the Wu-Tang Clan in 2018. The rap group's story was also told on screen in documentary form with Showtime's 2019 series Wu-Tang: Of Mics and Men

Wu-Tang Clan recently finished a co-headlining tour with Nas. They also celebrated 30 years of Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers), with New York declaring November 9 as "Wu-Tang Day."
In January Ghostface announced plans to release new music via Stem Player, the circular pod device that allows users to edit and remix the music. However, in March, it was announced that production on Ghostface's Stem Player had been delayed indefinitely.
