Digi Snacks

This world wasn’t in a digital format in 1998. Now digital is the most compelling form of commerce and entertainment so this is like a relaunch of the character. The album is Digi Snacks because it’s a snack pack of Bobby Digital’s world. Not only music and sounds, but also the comic background, the sci-fi background, the black-exploitation background. Look at the artwork, a girl with an afro, an Asian girl, Bobby sitting in the big king’s chair and then the villains, Raven, Hawk, Eagle and Crane, the four birds of prey that I use as my enemies. Bobby Digital’s life-long nemesis. That adds a comic element to it, as well as martial arts. I’m planning a comic book, a video game, I’m already talking to people. I want fans to be aware of these things.

The album's first single, "You Can't Stop Me Now," features fellow Wu-Tang Clan rapper Inspectah Deck; a track by this name featured in reports of early track listings of the group's 8 Diagrams album. The track samples a version of the Barrett Strong/Norman Whitfield composition "Message from a Black Man," also previously sampled by Mos Def on Undeniable in True Magic, MF Doom on the King Geedorah album Take Me to Your Leader, and in the same year, sampled by Nas and producer Salaam Remi for "You Can't Stop Us Now," from the rapper's Untitled album.
