Paul Walker Dead: RZA Composes Tribute Song ‘Destiny Bends’ For The Fallen Hollywood Star
Wu-Tang Clan leader RZA composed and released a Paul Walker tribute song titled "Destiny Bends."
Paul Walker's death was a shocker for many. The loveable star was known for the portrayal of Brian O'Connor in "Fast and the Furious" series. Messages of condolence and tributes poured in for Paul Walker. It is considered as one of the biggest losses in 2013.
"Destiny Bends" was written soon after RZA learned about Walker's death in a tragic accident.
In a SoundCloud post, RZA shared how he met Paul on the set of "Brick Mansion." They bonded on the set and exchanged ideas of life.
"I met Paul on the set of the film Brick Mansion, where we talked, laughed, and exchanged ideas of life and fatherhood. I only knew him personally for less than a year, but we knew each other through our work and art," wrote RZA.
RZA mentioned in the post that they shared the spirit of coming from "unlikely circumstances."
"We saw in each other a kindred spirit of men coming from unlikely circumstances, and rising to be the light and beacon of our family and loved ones. Men who learned the joy and pains of love in life, and success, while coming to realize that nothing is more important than family, friendship, and the brotherhood of humanity."
"As all physical things will decay and wither away, film, art, and music remain longer than the vessel that delivered them," added the composer.
He thanked his two sons and new buddy Will Wells for helping him composing this new song for Paul Walker. The vocal by Will Wells.
RZA revealed in the post that he had plans to work with Paul Walker in the future.
The post ends on this note: "This song is not for criticism, it's just a sketch demo. Please enjoy and reflect."
