Hip-Hop Chess Los Angeles Charity Tournament: RZA to Defend Title
Chess Blog for Daily Chess News and Trivia (c) Alexandra Kosteniuk, 2014
“I am looking forward to the upcoming chess battle at the HHCF Chess Kings Invitational in Los Angeles. To those knowing I have to defend my belt, get ready to protect ya neck,” said RZA. "The belt" refers to the prize given at the event instead of a trophy.
RZA, an ace chess player, is also the director of development and champion of the Hip-Hop Chess Federation. Working with Crowdtilt.com, the Hop-Hop Chess Federation is also holding an online fundraiser to teach chess and non-violence to youth. Proceeds from the charity tournament will go towards expanding the organization to Los Angeles.
RZA - Robert Fitzgerald Diggs - is an American music producer, multi-instrumentalist, author, rapper, actor, director and screenwriter.
