Eazy-E and Ol' Dirty Bastard are the next rappers to get the Tupac treatment and hit the stage as holograms.

Last year, late rapper Tupac graced the stage at Coachella with Snoop Lion thanks to new hologram technology. Since then, several deceased stars were rumored to get the hologram treatment next.

AllHipHop reports that Eazy-E will perform with Bone Thugs-N-Harmony and Ol' Dirty Bastard will rap with his former group Wu-Tang Clan.

Eazy-E is considered "The Godfather Of Gangsta Rap." He died in 1995 at the age of 31, only a month after he was diagnosed with AIDS.

The Coachella Festival has an awesome lineup this year. With so many great artists to hear, you need a plan to help you plot your day. Make sure you catch these musicians on this list, which covers some of the latest must-see groups as well as some legends.

1.) Blur

Blur led the second British Invasion during the 1990s. While American bands like Nirvana were trying to avoid musical excess, Blur indulged liberally to create a new form of pop music that melded the best aspects of rock, funk, and noise.

They came onto the scene around the same time that Oasis hit the international stage. An...

Wu-Tang Clan star GZA can soon add lecturer to his resume - he will teach students at Harvard University next month.

The hip-hop star will hold a discussion for the facility's Black Men's Forum on December 1st, detailing his lengthy career since forming the band and how he writes his song lyrics.

Following his talk, students at Harvard will then have a question-and-answer session with the rapper, reports RollingStone.com.

Wu-Tang Clan rapper RZA has joined the cast of Quentin Tarantino's gritty new western Django Unchained.

It won't be the first time he and Tarantino have worked together - the hip-hop star helped create the music for the director's Kill Bill movies.

RZA will join Leonardo DiCaprio, Samuel L. Jackson, Jamie Foxx, Don Johnson, Kurt Russell and Kerry Washington in the slave drama.

Ol' Dirty Bastard's life story is still coming to a theater near you … eventually. The rapper also known as Dirt McGirt, Big Baby Jesus or just simply ODB died in 2004, and in 2009 his cousin and fellow Wu-Tang Clan member RZA mentioned a biopic was a possibility.

In a recent interview with XXL, RZA dished some details on the project, and it sounds like it's moving into high gear. Not only that, it's attracted the attention of "30 Rock" star Tracy Morgan and actor Eddie Griffin.

It looks like Griffin is the more likely choice to play ODB, for now, if only because the two were friends. R...

Singer Cee Lo Green is set to show off his acting skills by playing the father of rapper Raekwon in the hip-hop star's biopic.

He tells XXL Magazine, "Cee Lo Green is playing my pops in the film. Cee Lo is going to play Raekwon's old dad! He's a good friend of mine. When I cal...

Hollywood songwriter Jaques Urbont claims he is the exclusive owner of Iron Man Theme, a tune he composed in 1966 for use on TV, and he has accused the Wu-Tang Clan star of using the track without permission on his Supreme Clientele release.

Urbont filed suit in the U.S. District Court in New York on June 30th and names Ghostface, producer RZA and Razor Sharp Records and Sony Records as defendants.

However, that's not Urbont's only complaint - he's...

Once upon a time, someone in the hip-hop community decreed that Bill Clinton had earned the “Black People Card”. I’m not certain, but it sounds like something Chris Rock would’ve said, so for now I’ll credit him with this. The argument was that Clinton was so cool, so down with black people, that had it not been for the colour of his skin, he’d be considered black on street cred alone. Think of the Black People Card as the Black Amex of the hip-hop community: you can’t apply for the card. If you ask, chances are you can’t afford it. No, you have to be sent an invitation. The hip-hop communi...

Wu-Tang Clan rapper RZA has threatened legal action against The Game in a dispute over a song.

Lawyers representing RZA - real name Robert Diggs - have sent a cease-and-desist letter to the star over a track called Heartbreaker, which RZA produced for The Game's R.E.D album.

The pair was unable to gain permission to use a sample featured in the song and it was removed from the record, although The Game is said to have included it on his Purp & Patron mix tape - which has apparently angered RZA.

The Game tells Hiphopdx.com, "I think RZA (is) tryin' to sue about (Heartbreaker) or somethi...

Sometimes the music doesn't matter. A band that channels the combined genius of John Lennon, Strauss and The Spice Girls can still fall flat with the wrong name. After all, who wants to tell people that their favorite band is called "Truck" or "Lug Nut?" A bad name can kill the potential of any group of musicians. It took more than a few tries to get it right for many of the most popular groups of all time. A few young gents from Britain started off their career calling themselves The Detours and then The High Numbers before ultimately settling on The Who.

At last summer's Rock the Bells, less that two minutes after Wu-Tang Clang busted into their first song, which is to say five minutes after the yo-yo-yos concluded, my dad plopped himself down on the grassy knoll. "These guys suck," he muttered into the tattooed shins of the toking Latino in front of him.

It's not that my pop is the typical old guy who views rap as an example of all that is wrong with the world; he had just nodded along to Cypress Hill several sets before, even mouthing a few choice lyrics to "Insane in the Membrane." No, my dad is just not a fan of live music he can'...

Soulja Boy has declared his feud with Ice-T is over, while praising Kanye West for supporting him in his war of words with the gangster rapper.

The Crank That (Soulja Boy) hitmaker - real name DeAndre Ramone Way - was dragged into a public spat with Ice-T after the rapper-turned-actor criticized the young star and his "garbage" music in a U.S. radio interview last month.

The 17-year-old posted an angry response on video sharing website YouTube.com, calling Ice-T "old as f--k" and insisting his attack was merely an attempt at drumming up publicity.

West then weighed in on the ...

Wu-Tang Clan star Method Man has invited U.S. presidential hopeful Barack Obama to join him on the streets of Compton in Los Angeles. The rapper is a big fan of the Democrat but he insists no new president should be allowed to lead the country without visiting the toughest areas of America.

He says, "My people never feel the affects of who changes the world or who's in office because it never trickles down that low on the scale. We don't feel the President's power down there (in Compton), we just feel the poverty. Blessings to Obama and the whole Obama click. Hopefully he'll bring his ...

Rap supergroups the Pharcyde and A Tribe Called Quest are to reunite for this year's Rock The Bells tour. The hip-hop 'festival' has become famous for bringing bands back together - the Wu-Tang Clan and Rage Against The Machine have both reformed for shows in recent years.

Rapper Ghostface Killah is threatening to quit the hip-hop industry - because his fans would rather download his new album for free instead of buying it legitimately.

The Wu-Tang Clan star's latest disc, The Big Doe Rehab, debuted at number 41 on the U.S. Billboard album chart with sales of approximately 36,000 upon its release in early December, but has failed to shift more units to move higher up in the charts. And the MC - real name Dennis Coles - is contemplating retiring from the rap game because he doesn't feel appreciated by his fan base.

Rap superstars Kanye West and Jay-Z have lost touch with their original fanbase, according to Wu-Tang Clan star Raekwon. Raekwon claims they are missing out on a whole generation of hip-hop enthusiasts, because their wealth and success has alienated them from ordinary people.

He says, "A lot of street people don't put stock in them anymore because they aren't doing enough to excite anyone. (They should) Come back to the hood and drop $100,000."

American Gangster star RZA was taught to be a cop while filming the crime movie - by the same officers who chased him as a kid. The Wu-Tang Clan rapper turned the tables on his youth as a tearaway on the streets of New York to play a NYPD officer in the Ridley Scott-directed film.

And he was stunned to recognize the faces of the officers recruited to show him the ropes.

RZA - real name Robert Diggs - says, "As a kid in New York, I must have been chased by the cops every week. On the set, Universal spared no expense. We had cops teaching cops. Some of those cops knew me. I actually...
