Are you making a joke or is the "RZA" that he refers to the same?

He is the purchaser of a Wu-Tang album of which only one copy was to exist known as "Once Upon a Time in Shaolin" [0].
Which has a clause stating that Wu-Tang or Bill Murray can attempt one heist to steal the album back without repercussion [1].
The world is a strange place.
Also sorry about the ad ridden mess that is reference [1], I'm at work.

The clause is a hoax. A pretty hilarious one though! http://nymag.com/following/2015/12/wu-tang-wont-actually-ste...

When I heard about the hoax, I felt stupid for falling for this thing about a Wu-Tang album with only one copy that the owner hadn't even listened to.
THEN I found out that only the Bill Murray clause was a hoax, and the actual album thing is true. Christ.

Shkreli is indeed referring to the Clan's RZA. Shkreli recently bought the single existing copy of their newest album.
