my vote = ghost.

Well-said.

I always liked Ghostface the most. Although a lot of times i dont know what the hell he's talkin about .. it just sounds ill.

2nd Meth.

Voted for Masta Killah cause nobody voted for the poor bastard.

His solo album No Said Date is pretty good.

Iron Man was a great rapper, and technically, Ghost, GZA, and Kwon were the "real" MCs of the bunch...

But Meth and ODB were the heart...they brought the personality.

In my opinion, Meth really has had a varied and successful solo career - Tical, Tical 2000, and Blackout!! were all awesome as ****...

And Dirty really only had three turns; the two Wu-Tang records he was really there for, and the Return to the 36 Chambers...

But Return was SO dirty, I still haven't heard anything quite like it.

My vote goes to Dirty - maybe not "the best", but certainly the most distinctive.

"Dirty; I keeps sh*t stains in my draws
so I can gets fizza-funky for y'all!"

You'll be presently surprised.

I voted for Ghost, but nearly every member (save U-God) is great, and for totally different reasons.

U-God isn't actually bad just looks bad compared to the rest.

I'll go with Meth. Meth and Rae are above the rest of them in my opinion. Just love their voices and their flows. I saw Method with Redman live and could not have been more blown away or impressed. Especially since he was performing at a small club in a mainly white college town (Penn State).. Still brough crazy intensity and totally owned the crowd.

You have to love ODB, he has a strange voice but paved the way for new artists with diffrent rhyme styles and voices like lil wayne. That and hes insane.
