Are you sure about any Ghostface album?

Not sure about Bulletproof Wallets or Pretty Toney - Ironman and Supreme Clientele are both classics.

What about Bobby Digital?

After all this time, and all these years, my favourite is 36 Chambers.

Either The Movement or 36 Chambers. I don't really see what all the Ghostface fuss is about. He's good, but nowhere near the best of the WTC.

I don't know if I could pick a top 3, but my favorite album by far is Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers), and my favorite solo material is the GZA's stuff. Does the RZA's stuff like Kill Bill and Ghost Dog count?

36 Chambers is a given.

You clearly don't know much about not only hip-hop, but emceeing in general.

Even Bulletproof Wallets is better than The Movement. Those new Wu albums are o.k, but are really just a way for fans who weren't into it at the beginning to chime in with a favourite album. It's a sort of generational entitlement they don't get with something like Tical or Cuban Linx.

Ghost has developed a unique and technical flow that has never really let up. The worst verse I heard him drop was on Dangerdoom, and that album is wack anyways. Compared to The GZA, who sprouts dickriders every week, Ghost is animated and tells a mean story. To boot, he's got crazy emotion, and nasty sex rhymes. The total package. He's lifted some utter shit out the gutter in his time.

Just keep listening my friend, you'll understand.

Dick made the cover now count how many veins on it.

Anyways, my vote would be Supreme, Tical, and Dirty Version. The Dirty Version to me, just sounds unlike anything else ever. Some of it sucks, but I like most of it.

LOL drop the attitude young un, i was just curious. i'm a big GFK fan, however i've listening to wu since 93 and hip hop since 81 so my perspective is a little different than yours. it's good to see that at least some pre-teens are listening to good hip hop

No smoking. I got complete clarity.

You'd have to smoke something to really enjoy that album. Maybe 2 decent cuts (The Mask, Benzi Box). Whatever, I'm glad some people enjoy it.

Operation Doomsday and Madvilliany it ain't. Actually it isn't even as good as Demon Days.

Buh, something new and filled with creativity, what real music forgot. It was refreshing and thus worthy of praise. It was a lot of fun to listen to, change of pace of sorts. Rough edges but I enjoyed it overall, never said it was a phenomenal album.

On a sidenote Im buzzed on beer and pills so, if I don't makey no sense, you know why. Bitches.

3). Ghostface - Supreme Clientele
4). Raekwon - Only Built For Cuban Linx

Dont get me wrong I love Ghostface, I just think Supreme Clientele and Iroman are better albums than Bulletproof and Pretty Toney.
Gza is my favourite though.

Thread needs more love for Ol' Dirty Bastard. Return To The 36 Chambers is easily on the level with the other Wu-Tang Classics, and Nigga Please is spotty but a joy to listen to as well.

ODB is completely unfuckwitable, really.

Whoah, struck a nerve.

It's cool. You just have to understand that telling people you started listening to something while your brain was still incapable of really appreciating it, is nothing compared to being there from the beginning.

You see a lot of it with people who loved To the Five Boroughs.

Yeah. GZA used to write his rhymes for him.

But I don't know if that includes all of his stuff on 36 Chambers.

That doesn't take away from the charms of Dirty Version though. If anybody but ODB made that record, they'd be shunned.

Just so everyone is aware, Auton's not even kidding. He's not being the least bit sarcastic or patronizing with this list. I've had countless arguments with him about this kind of thing. He really does think U-God is the best one out of the whole Wu. Sometimes I really wonder about your taste in music, man.

"Being there from the beginning"? Do you live in Staten Island? Were you in the studio when Wu Tang recorded their first album? No, you went out and bought the CDs, just like I did. Stop the elitist bullshit, man. So what if I was too young to understand some of the references at first, that don't mean shit. I was still absorbing all the beats and the feeling and shit, and I probably know a fuckload more about hip-hop than you did at my age.

Mickill's right, im being really real about this fools.... besides everyone knows the only good wu tang clan album was IRON FLAG, since they could (finally) afford to buy a beat off Trackmasters. anyway you're all little bitches... angry 'cos you don't have the new CAPPA MIX TAPE I JUST GOT!!!
