They don't call Wu-Tang pioneer GZA "The Genius" for nothing. The Liquid Swords rapper announced today that he'll be giving a guest lecture at Harvard University about lyrical craft and his experiences in the music business.

GZA, who was invited to the campus by the Black Men's Forum, will give a presentation open to the general public on December 1. The talk will be followed by a Q&A session with the Staten Island rapper.

While in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the legendary emcee said he'll pay a visit to the MIT Media Lab and the Broad Institute seeking out scientists and intellectuals while brainstorming for his next album.

GZA's seventh album is due sometime next year from Babygrande records.
