The shows are in addition to their festival appearances at The Slam Tent at T In The Park, and following news of their first album in six years, although the name and release date of the record are yet to be confirmed.
RZA told Allhiphop.com: "This is the perfect time for us to come back, the stars are aligned. It's like when we first started.
“We put out real hip-hop at a time when it was turning into pop or R&B. We brought the focus back to the music in its rawest form, without studio polish or radio hooks. People want something that gives them an adrenaline rush.”
