minus-squaremoon@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 months agoWuTang didn’t make an NFT. They recorded an album that had no public release, and sold the only existing copy to a single buyer like a painting. This was kind of a slap in the face to their fans and what music is, but this was long before NFTs were a thing.
