They say you can never go home again, but nobody told that to Wu-Tang Clan members Method Man, Raekwon and Ghostface Killah, were Shaolin-adjacent on Sunday when they performed a special set on a decommissioned Staten Island Ferry boat in honor of designer Tommy Hilfiger’s 2024 New York Fashion week show debuting the brand’s 2025 Spring-Summer collection.
“Major event took place earlier this evening ! ON THE STATEN ISLAND FERRY !!!!!!! what’s fu–king with that !!!!!! hahahah. at the @tommyhilfiger NYFW last show . we ran the runway with the #hillfiger alumni,” Raekwon wrote on Instagram on Monday (Sept. 9) alongside a carousel of pics from the show, including one with a smiling Hilfiger.
“we ran the runway with the #hillfiger alumni. Amazing surprise show . @andyhilfiger you and your brother are iconic. appreciate the years of love and respect !!!!!! Myself ..MEF .. and Ghost did the 1/2 to excite the crowd and they went bananas,” the Chef continued of the gig that took place on the John F. Kennedy ferry boat owned by SNL‘s Colin Jost and pal and SNL album Pete Davidson. “so many years of respect to a brand who always supported us to the fullest.”
According to the New York Post, guests who boarded the boat that used to ferry passengers between Manhattan and the borough birthplace of the Wu-Tang docked at the South Street Seaport for Fashion Week included Jost, Brooke Shields, actor Damson Idris (Snowfall), Patrick Schwarzenegger (Gen V), BLACKPINK’s Jisoo, Stray Kids’ Felix and Lee Know and Olympic gold medalists Suni Lee and Gabrielle Thomas.
Tony Stark also posted some pics from the gig, as well as a video of the titanic trio ripping through the iconic 1993 Wu-Tang track “C.R.E.A.M.” as they jumped up unexpectedly from their seats and walked around among the high-brow crowd with the Roots’ Questlove on the decks behind them for a set that also included the Wu-Tang’s 2007 track “Ice Cream.”
