HE'S THE CORNY LIGHT-SKINNED NIGGA OF THE GROUP...

Well he had charisma on this


"least amount of charisma" does not mean "no charisma".


If I had to rate the Wu on charisma, U-God wouldn't be at the bottom. He shined on The Mysteries of Chessboxin and Cherez La Ghost.

GZA isn't very charismatic but Liquid Swords came out perfect (for a rapper with very little charisma).

Inspectah Deck and Masta Killah aren't as charismatic as, say, Method Man.

But my point is that whenever the Wu gets brought up its always U-God that's the butt of the joke, never Masta Killer, GZA or Deck.
 
the difference between deck or gza and u god is they make up for that lack of charisma with lyricism.

gza arguably the best lyricist in the wu.

GZA has a classic, deck has arguably the greatest verse in Hip Hop and shined on a classic record in "cream" And other verses. I really can't think of a bad deck verse and still killing it now with the czarface albums.masta killa can rap his ass off Anyone who shits on him obviously never heard his albums
 
U God is fine, but he is one of the weakest in the group. Back in the day, I probably would have put him just above Masta Killa as the worst, but Masta has stepped it up big time since then whereas U God is pretty much the same.

Everybody in the hood back then grew up on Shaw Bros. movies and comic books. Even my generation who was younger (1983 baby) and that was their whole style so it was easy. "Kicking rhymes like Jim Kelly" for instance you don't get that shit unless you remember old blaxploitation kung fu joints like Blackbelt Jones which we always used to watch in the saturday afternoon movie and vhs tape days.

Well, it helps that for every video they had with the Kung Fu, they had a video looking like they were from the grimiest hood in the Universe.
 
Wu-Tang was the shit cause they embodied what everyone in the hood went through and enjoyed all up in their music. Authentically and unapologetically.

The everyman blue collar type, the drug dealer, the dude who just lounges on the stoop and at home. We all grew up smoking blunts, reading comic books, watching sports and kung fu flicks, piping ho's etc.

They truly were for the people in a way no other group ever dared to be. Not even Public Enemy and N.W.A.
