Tomorrow marks the 20th Anniversary of '36 Chambers'. Knowing what you know now, who is your favorite original Wu Tang Member?

[Chyeahhh!!!]

Ghost for character

Rae for rhyming ingenuity

Meth for Mc prowness

[Frank Metts]

Best, deepest, hip hop crew ever? Would anyone agree?

Yes.

I don't even see how that can be disputed.

I named a few who could be argued in my opinion ( slaughter is probably the least likely one people my age would vouche for but it's four skilled emcees doing their thing )

I was gonna say slaughterhouse are the only group that comes close imo. I think they are more talented individually, but not as a group like wu tang were.

I think Frank Metts brought up the only suitable comparison: Dungeon Family. OutKast, Goodie Mob and Killer Mike have had great careers (and continue to make great music). But I side with Wu-Tang Clan because if you're counting the Killer Beez and other affiliates, it's crazy deep, and if you're just looking at the nine principle members, eight are absolutely elite-level. And that other one is U-God. I said it, Mike Wrecka.

And I can name more .. The firm, the commission, army of the pharoahs, the commission, children of the corn, the lox, 213, EMC, child rebel soldiers, gravediggaz, murder inc ( not the label but the jay, X, ja group ), westside connection, TRU, la coka nostra, the fours horsemen, golden state, fantastic four, the crooklyn dodgers, d12, the outsidaz, terror squad just to name a few

[Rawn MD]

Apples to oranges.

If we're looking at just the original Wu Tang vs. The Dungeon Family, maybe it's close in terms of careers and hits, etc. But the Dungeon Family is buoyed by OutKast. The rest of them are good but ancillary.

The real difference, though, is that Wu Tang started off as Wu Tang then slowly branched off. No OutKast fan recognizes OutKast as an offshoot of the Dungeon Family. No Goodie Mob fan recognizes Goodie Mobb as an offshoot of the Dungeon Family. Was Killer Mike original Dungeon Family? I forget. Even if he was, no one recognizes Killer Mike as an offshoot of the DF. If anything he's the 'dude who's nice who's on those OutKast songs'.

Every dope album, song, and track from Wu Tang members is borne from '36 Chambers' because without it there are none of those albums, singles, or tracks. DF is a footnote affiliation to some of the best, if not Pantheon, rap acts.

[uh-oh]

i was clowning

but dipset was dope

frank is dumb if he honestly thinks 3/4 of the groups he named belong in the same sentence

[Rawn MD]

Uh oh u have saved face

[uh-oh]

i like more dipset songs and dipset affiliates tracks than wu tho

but wu has 20 songs that hold as much weight as 50 dipset songs basically

blasphemy

he is dope imo. he steals the show on a lot of tracks. Wu Tang Forever CD is his best work. his verse on Triumph is ill. his verse on Gravel Pit is incredible. his verse on Its Yourz is one of my favorite verses ever. on Supreme Clientele his verse on Cherchez la ghost was dope. I could go on

[Certain]

Mike Wrecka's favorite song is "Black Shampoo."

[Frank Metts]

Gza and rza ( under a different name ) dropped albums before wu

Everyone one of those groups is better then dipset and some of them never released albums lol

Cam was apart of children of the corn but this was before horse and carriage

Julez the only member in dipset worth spinning every no and again, only cam songs I've Ever liked are songs with other artists featured in them
