RZA Drops Graphic Novel Soundtrack 'Bobby Digital and the Pit of Snakes'

RZA's love for comics and martial arts is well documented — now, he's dropped the soundtrack for his forthcoming graphic novel Bobby Digital and The Pit of Snakes. The eight-song soundtrack shares the name with the novel, and features tracks including the two lead singles, "Under the Sun" and "We Push." The soundtrack merges Hip Hop, indie rock, and soul in an effort to bring the graphic novel, which was written by Vasilis Lolos, Ryan O’Sullivan and RZA, to life.

“The character Bobby Digital getting his first official first graphic novel is a long-overdue achievement,” the RZA said in a press release. “Growing up as an avid comic reader, it’s an honor to add my creativity to this amazing platform of storytelling. Z2 Comics understands that music artists resonate in the comic book/graphic novel world and this relationship is destined to grow.”

Earlier this month, RZA collaborated with the theater, Alamo Drafthouse, to create the Flying Guillotine, a bar and martial arts films museum. In addition to the Flying Guillotine, the theater also includes RZA’s Saturday Shaolin Theater — a weekly afternoon series inspired by his personal martial arts favorites.

RZA's graphic novel arrives on August 13 via Z2 Comics. Stream the soundtrack.
