Because of a certain someone we have to do it alllll over again.

Sneer · 02-25-2011, 04:21 PM

Got to be Wu again... although Madlib's Quasimoto work makes it so difficult to choose.

**Janszoon** · 02-25-2011, 04:46 PM

Madlib by a longshot.

Charlemagne · 02-25-2011, 07:01 PM

Madlib...once again.

djchameleon · 02-26-2011, 04:18 AM

Madlib better win this time

Kirby · 02-26-2011, 04:46 AM

Wu-Tang.

Madlib's cool, but he would never get my vote over the Wu.

Looks like the two are destined for a draw.

OK, so there is a sense of incredulity amongst some respected posters that Wu Tang COULD beat Madlib. This surprises me. Madlib is great, his production is tip top and his work with Madvillian, Jaylib and Quasimoto is brill. But when considering the releases of Wu as a group, not to mention the solo work released by the likes of GZA, Method Man, Raekwon and Ghostface Killa... I think Wu take it. Plus, I may get shot for this one considering peoples love for Madlib... but I think RZA is equal to him as a producer.

I think the people that are voting for Madlib are not taking into account the solo work of each member because they had their own chances in the polls to beat other artists and they failed.

OK, this is where wires possibly cross. See, if we're taking into consideration solo releases from within the Wu franchise, which I though would be a natural approach (but then I havent managed to keep up with most of premiliminary rounds, my bad) then as I've said, it's Wu by a mile for me. If we're taking the Wu-Tng purely by their collective releases, I'd still say Wu. They are one of, if not the most influential hip hop acts of all time, and in my opinion they havent released a bad album... something which, IN MY OPINION, Madlib has.

I think they're both great. I wish there was a "Both" option, but... eh. I voted Wu Tang Clan because they've probably had more influence, but then again I think they're both wonderful. So, it's pretty hard to choose.
