RZA work on the first wave of Wu Tang solos make him better than most producers. I mean all the beats match each individual from the Wu perfectly. From ODBs,to Cuban Linx none of the beats sound similar

i think its the best straight lyrical performances on a single album. Not taking beats into account, just lookin at one mans lyrics over an entire disc.
