Gerald Barclay's "Killa Hill" Docuseries
eTradeWire News/10797521
Method Man with other Wu members and The Wire's Hassan Johnson lend their voices to "Killa Hill" docuseries airing on Tubi TV April 1, 2025.
NEW YORK - eTradeWire -- The Killa Hill series, by longtime Wu-Tang video director Gerald "Gee-Bee" Barclay (https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0054048/), is executive produced by RZA, Raekwon, Herman Dawson and Gano Grills. The project was over 40 years in the making.
Barclay said, "I moved to Park Hill in 1983 and began compiling photos and video footage of the community through its many phases. With the release of "Wu: The story of the Wu-Tang Clan" (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0950779/) on BET in 2007, followed many projects. The 16-part docuseries presented over two seasons delves into the socio-economic, law enforcement, racial, and mental health of Park Hill's inhabitants in relation to the crack era."
Barclay premiered the first five episodes to a packed OURS Studios audience in Decatur, GA. on February 22nd, 2025. The series is arranged in chronological order beginning with his perspective of Park Hill.

Lifestyle reenactments from the statements of both former and present-day residents enthralled the audience; a correlation could be made between the events in the series, and Wu-Tang's references to the community in their music. But overall, anyone apart of a similar social climate could relate one way or another to the series.
Each episode presented unforeseen, compelling plots. Through the dejection of each scenario, a broader picture emerged about how trauma is processed in underserved communities.
On February 26th, Killa Hill episodes were screened before the Wagner College sociology department. Among those in attendance were representatives from the Richmond County District Attorney's office, Legal Aid Society and Wagner educators to discuss the intersection of crime, anti-Black racism, immigration, and the sense of "home" following the screening.
In November of 2024, an episode was previewed at the SVA Theater in NYC in conjunction with the "Wu-Tang Experience: Live at Red Rocks Amphitheatre" as seen on PBS (https://www.pbs.org/show/a-wu-tang-experience-live-at-red-rocks-amphitheatre/), also directed by Barclay.

Killa Hill then made its debut at the Three Chambers festival (https://www.instagram.com/reel/DDQJXShP1GI/?igsh=MWd2ZWd2ZXNrcmMyYw) in Wilmington, North Carolina on December 4th as seen on WECT 6 News (https://www.wect.com/2024/12/05/3-chambers-fest...).
While the docuseries echoes painful events and grieves the loss of the voiceless, it manages to highlight the injustice of a system that failed a community. In examining what can't be undone in it's myriad forms, an understanding can be gained from this series, to better address the Killa Hills of world.
Among Inspectah Deck and others, who contributed to the series' soundtrack, was Method Man's daughter "Chey" and ODB's son "Weatherpark," who performed at the NY screening following that at Wagner College.
