He crams sentences with too many syllables and can’t keep a decent flow on most songs. Its a shame because he’s actually one of my favorites on 36 chambers. That whole agressive style just went away tho and he turned too focussed on the lyrical part and not so much the delivery and flow. Compare rza’s verse to the other verses on Triumph and you’ll see what I mean.

    Inspectah Deck is hail by every member of the Clan as the best Lyricist.
    He doesn’t have the solo catalog but his contribution to rap as a whole… be it styles, flows and themes that a lot of the Greats use today…. HE CREATED THOSE.
    On every Wu Tang and solo album he’s featured on, he has the best verse.
    There is a reason he usually goes first.

    INS is definitely high A tier, he brings fire to every single group cut he opens on ("Triumph," "Protect Ya Neck," and "Guillotine (Swords)" just to name a few). Lyrically I'd put him right on par with GZA and Ghost, even if he doesn't have the discography to back it. Uncontrolled Substance is slept on though, I'd put it at least on the level of Tical and probably higher.

      I agree with both of these statements. No Said Date is sneaky good. Its slept on because some of the best tracks are toward the end of the album, like Queen, School and Silverbacks. Ghostdeini is great too, its just different and some people weren't open to Ghostface changing his sound. That being said, tracks like Do Over, Baby and Guest House are super strong tracks which will always be in my Ghostface mix due to their quality and his versatility.
      Check out the track "Soursop" off of his relatively recent Ghostface Killaz album. That one flew under the radar too, and its one of his best.

    I love RZA’s rapping in Gravediggaz. Everyone always talks about his production, but he's an underrated rapper
    as well. The Czarface records are so good. I love INS. He would definitely go in the S. Otherwise I pretty much agree with the list

    • @mf_dva
      @mf_dva 9 місяців тому

      I would put INS in A but S is questionable imo. The Czarface album are cool and his name probably is what pulled most people into giving them a listen but let's just be honest with ourselves. Czarface seems more like Eso's thing while INS is just along for the ride. The former is clearly the driving force behind it all.

    GZA is my favourite of the bunch when it comes to rhyming. He is creative, intelligent and educated himself well. Liquid Swords is a masterpiece. But I agree his longevity is a problem. He's one of those artists who seem to just spit out all the incredible ideas on one record and then just can't beat that. On the other hand, have the Wu Tang ever got close to their mind blowing and one of a kind debut?
