If you're only counting vocalists then yeah.

Yeah, as a producer RZA is definitely one of, if not the most important member. His beats are pretty unique, and I'm not just talking about the kung fu thing.

The only song from Wu-tang where i feel RZA outshines the others is 'Imposible' but in other tracks i don't usually find his verses all that great.

I think 4th Chambers (posted above) he outshines every rapper. If I were to pick a favourite rapper then it'd be Ghost or GZA.

RZA's production though, mad sequence of albums. There are three or four absolute stone cold classics from 36 Chambers to Wu Tang Forever. Can almost guarantee your favourite Wu album (solo or not) was produced by RZA.

He just has this great, minimalist, dark, gritty sound to his beats that give them great atmosphere. As great as the rappers in Wu-Tang are, without RZA's production their work probably wouldn't be on the level that it is.

Ghostface is still the man. Easily the best discography.

Ironman and Supreme Clientele are pretty close but I'd probably go with Ironman.

i used to quite a bit....nowdays almost never

"I bomb atomically, Socrates' philosophies
and hypothesis can't define how I be droppin these
mockeries, lyrically perform armed robbery"

5. Describe your favorite local venue.

6. Describe your favorite local band.

Just watched Wu Tang on the daily show....have to say that RZA kills it on this new track

think I would still say Deck within the clan itself but Bobby Digital on his own
