Nice thread
I'm always surprised at how many people rank ODB as the best rapper in the Wu. Don't get me wrong, I love that God and RIP, but he ain't close to the best honestly.
1) RZA - Lyrics too deep for comprehension unless you do like a months worth of research to figure out what he's talking about
2) GZA - Lyrics are amazing as well, though not as deep, he's better at metaphors and rap-battle style
3) Deck - Very underrated, nobody kicks a song off better than Deck
4) Ghost - Between his lyrics, storytelling, and stream of consciousness flow
5) Raekwon - Not a big fan of that thick ass NY accent, or his slang, cuz I'm not from NY, but he has very smart lyrics and skilled delivery
6) Meth - That flow....oh my...that flow...like sex to my ears
7) ODB - God rest his soul, super creative, fun, awesome to listen to, sometimes the lyrics aren't too great but his delivery is unmatched
8) Masta Killa - He's like the love child of RZA and GZA
9) U-God - doesn't get enough credit, his flow, rhymes, and delivery are top notch, but he's had some **** songs in his solo career besmerching his name
10) Frukwon & Too Poetic - Gravediggaz technically, but badass nonetheless
