Oliver ‘Power’ Grant, the business mastermind behind the Wu-Tang Clan, has died at the age of 52.
The news of his passing was confirmed on Tuesday, though a cause of death has not yet been revealed.
Tributes immediately began pouring in from Wu-Tang members - including Method Man, RZA, and Raekwon - and the wider hip-hop community.
Method Man shared a photo of himself with Power on Instagram, writing: ‘Paradise my Brother safe Travels!! #pookie #power Bruh I am not ok .. .'
RZA also expressed his grief, posting a black square with Boyz II Men’s It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday and adding the caption ‘5’ - a reference to the Five-Percent Nation’s Supreme Mathematics that inspired Grant’s nickname.
Raekwon added: ‘POWER we been everywhere …. now you everywhere ! the most high is merciful love you.’
Oliver ‘Power’ Grant, the business mastermind behind the Wu-Tang Clan, has died at the age of 52
Tributes immediately began pouring in from Wu-Tang members and the wider hip-hop community, highlighting the profound impact Grant had both on and off the stage
The Wu-Tang Clan was formed in Staten Island, New York, in 1992, quickly becoming one of hip-hop’s most influential groups.
The original lineup included RZA, GZA, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, Method Man, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Inspectah Deck, U-God, and Masta Killa.
BREAKING NEWS Wu-Tang Clan founding member dead at 52 as tributes pour in
A childhood friend of RZA, Grant played a pivotal - and often under-appreciated - role in turning the Wu-Tang Clan from a scrappy Staten Island rap crew into a global cultural powerhouse.
Long before hip‑hop stars routinely launched clothing lines, Grant saw the potential in merging music with fashion and multimedia.
He was instrumental in founding Wu Wear, one of rap’s first artist‑owned streetwear brands, which became a hugely lucrative offshoot of the group’s success and helped define how artists could profit outside of record sales.
While many fans know Wu‑Tang for classic tracks like Protect Ya Neck and Method Man - songs Grant helped fund and promote alongside RZA and Mitchell 'Divine' Diggs - it was his business vision that laid the blueprint for generations of artists to come.
Reflecting on those early days in a 2011 interview with Passion of the Weiss, he said: ‘Wu Wear was pretty much like our entry in the fashion biz, but before I was in Wu Wear, I was making and marketing the first Wu records with RZA.
'Everything that we learned was hard knock life. You figure it out as you go along and take cues from those that are actively doing things.’

‘A lot of it was trial and error,’ he added. ‘There were no models.’
