Wu-Tang Clan mastermind Robert Diggs, aka RZA, is busy promoting "RZA as Bobby Digital In Stereo", the soundtrack album to his alter-ego B-boy superhero film, Bobby Digital, a project the hip hop producer/DJ had to get out of his system before moving on to his debut solo album, "The Cure", due in February.

After helping to produce the side projects of fellow clansmen Raekwon, Ol' Dirty Bastard, Method Man, GZA, Ghostface Killah and Gravediggaz, RZA put his "official" solo album on hold in order to get Bobby Digital's "perverted" ways out of his system via the soundtrack and movie.

"(Bobby Digital) was bottled up in me and it was stopping my progress, from moving forward, as well as putting me in a contradictory state to all the things I'm going to say on the RZA album," he explained during a recent visit to Toronto. "There is a clear distinction, even in the tone of my voice. RZA sounds pretty sad on some songs."

Preferring to concentrate on Bobby Digital, RZA has revealed little about "The Cure". It supposedly contains more of his groundbreaking Wu-Tang production, along with collaborations with Isaac Hayes and Rage Against The Machine. More defining is that there's singing on the album and what he calls a family vibe.

"Yeah, RZA, I'd call it 'mindful.' You would say 'spiritual.' I have a song called 'The 99 Attributes Of Allah'. That song could make you cry. I've got a song called 'Pugilism', which goes into different forms of Chi Kung. It's a fantasy world but it gives you some of the potential power of it," says RZA. "So I go into different principles on that album."
