Top 2 are unquestionably liquid swords and OB4CL. As far as that third spot, for me it’s either supreme clientele or Ironman but Tical is also in the running. All 5 of those albums I could listen to all day

This is completely false. They were dropping classics with RZA, as solo artists all of them got lost without him except Ghost.

Liquid swords

OB4CL and Liquid Swords are the only definitive classics from phase one with Ironman and Return of the 36 Chambers being arguable, by the end of phase 2 the hype had died down, and only Ghost and Meth had strong mainstream followings. It could've been done a lot better. And the the best rapper in the clan is had an almost nonexistent solo career, granted it was in part due to circumstances beyond their control.

Don’t hate Tical but I would probably sub it out for either Return (“Brooklyn Zoo” is one of my favorite hip-hop songs ever) or Clientele (although “Clipse of Doom” off Fishscale might be my favorite Ghostface song).

fishscale the #1

OB4CL
Liquid Swords
Insert Ghostface album here

It could've been done a lot worse. You're being too critical tbh. I've studied RZA for years and he's a f***ing genius.

Wow respect to anyone who rangs bobby digital that high, definitely underrated

Some of RZAs best beats ever on that too

Lmao Big Doe Rehab

Pretty Toney album aint too bad tho

Not implying he's not a genius, just feel his curation of the Wu after Wu-Tang Forever was meh.

Although phase 1 was actually well since now I think about it in relation to other hip-hop collectives is great

Ob4cl
Liquid Swords
Supreme Clientele

OB4CL

the rest

lol u don’t know what ur getting urself into bud

It's minimalism at its finest <3

Phase 2 was more about promoting their affiliates and strengthening Wu as a brand.

Ob4cl
Liquid Swords
Ironman

your top 3 phase 2 albums?

I would switch Supreme Clientele with Ironman

That's good way to frame it tbh, phase was when they released Wu-Wear?

If Supreme Clientele and Wu Tang Forever don't count:

Blackout
N word Please
Beneath the Surface
H.M: Gravediggaz' sophomore

Meth was a beast on Tical 2000, its only fault was the skits.. a victim of its era.

Bobby Digital in Stereo was decent, to me RZA is incredible for a feature, but as a solo rapper his style can get boring.

All those albums were dope (only Blackout is arguably a classic tho). Rae's sophomore and Deck's debut were huge letdowns sadly.

OG Wu stans love those early Killarmy and LA the Darkman albums but I never bumped them like that. I respect them tho. Shyheim had some good s*** as well (Meth ghostwrote his s*** 😂).

Yep

What? Have you never listened to Ghosts solo stuff?
