Wu tang clan!

Loved these guys for ages, 36 chambers is such a dope album. GZA is my favourite member of the clan.

Much better than most of the stuff out there, but I never really got into them.

Grandmasters


This is one of GZA's solo albums, with Dj Muggs from Cypress Hill. Dopeness.

Or you could get Liquid Swords.

ODB was the Soul of the Wu-Tang. They'll never make a classic album without him. GZA and Ghostface's solo stuff is pretty tight though.

Yeah ODB's raps weren't great, he was more like a visual point for the group, like Flava Flav is for Public Enemy.

Are you on Crack? ODB's rap's are essential! Partly because he was mad as a hat stand.

Re: Wu tang clan!

Compare his shit to the other members of the Clan and it becomes clear his raps aren't great lyrically. He was/is an important member of the Wu but not because of his lyrical dexterity, I would say more for his sporadic attitude and peculiar behaviour.

Re: Wu tang clan!

i dont mind his delivery
it makes what he says better
but i agree that his lyrics dont touch the other members of the wu

ghostface and raekwon are a step above the rest

Re: Wu tang clan!

Even though it's been a long while since I really listened to rap (I was raised on it and only gave it up completely 6 years ago), I still sometimes think about how good they were...I still have a tape I made of ODB's first album and they really had a lot of good songs and videos. Method Man is probably my favorite though.

Fixed it for you

He didn't have the delivery and complex rhymes of the other members, but his vocal style, energy and comic value were priceless.

I used to listen to these guys everyday years ago, and still have a fond spot for them, but I got over all the 'gangsta' style BS and got into more thoughtful, less money grabbing rappers. I.E. Not Snoop.

Re: Wu tang clan!
