2. GZA
3. Rae
4. Meth
5. MK

RZA. I love RZA as a producer but dawg, I've NEVER messed with him as rapper. He's off beat and a lot of times dude was just saying random ****. He almost ruined Reunited and Duck Seazon.

Killa

Ghost (by far the most consistent, can't see how anybody would have another member above him)

Rae (best solo album but Ghost deserves credit too, sequel was dope also and best solo Wu album in years)

Meth (decent solo work, great on Wu group albums, guest appearances and work with Redman)

GZA (love LS and his stuff on the first 2 group albums but he bores me a lil after '97)

Deck (a monster on all Wu tracks from '93 to '97, could never live up to the potential of making a great solo album)

Killa (very solid solo artist but never wows me)

ODB (love the first solo album and most of his stuff on first 2 group albums, still not a great mc tho)

RZA (fantastic producer, mediocre rapper, I still mess with Bobby Digital and Graved****z stuff tho)

U-God (meh, ok on group tracks)

Cap (Winter Warz might be the best verse a Wu member has ever dropped but not a fan of much else)

1. Gza - No one is touching him on the mic

No one is touching Rae. I never really liked Ghost flame suit on. His voice annoys me.  

RZAs verse on 4th chamber still gets me to this day

Aiyyo, camouflage chameleon, ninjas scaling your building
No time to grab the gun they already got your wife and children
A hit was sent, from the President to raid your residence
Because you had secret evidence, and documents
on how they raped the continents, and it's the prominent
dominant Islamic, Asiatic black Hebrew
The year two thousand and two, the battle's filled with the Wu
Six million devils just died from the Bubonic Flu
Or the Ebola Virus, under the reign of King Cyrus
You can see the weakness of a man right through his iris
Un-loyal snakes get thrown in boiling lakes
of hot oil, it boils your skin, chickenheads getting slim
like Olive Oyl, only plant the seed deep inside fertile soil
Fortified with essential, vitamin and minerals
Use the sky for a blanket, stuffing clouds inside my pillow
Rolling with the lambs
Twelve tribes a hundred and forty four thousand chosen
Protons Electrons Always Cause Explosions

It's funny but my lists has probably changed about 10 different times over the course of the last 20 years. 

My list based on every album I've heard, every feature overall impact as of 2014

1.Prince Rakeem, The Abbot, Bobby Digital, Bobby Steels, the Scientist, Prince Delight, Prince Dynamite, Ruler Zig-Zag-Zig Allah

This dude is a ******* GENIUS. When I was younger I didn't feel him that much. But man his FLOW IS CRAZY. It is so unorthodox, his bars are crazy. Top 5 producers of all time. The Soundtracks (Ghost Dog, Afro Samurai, Man w/ iron fists) His overall catalog of songs.

2.Ghostface- I gotta give it to him because in 2000 when Supreme Clientele dropped it was CLASSIC WU Sound. The beats the Bars were FILTHY  I thought I wouldn't think he could come close to topping Ironman. I still give the edge to Ironman though. He has to be #2 because he has had the most solid career as far as putting out music and keep wu tang alive.

3. Method Man- The features the style the presence on a song. He was my number 1 for many years. The only reason he is number 3 is because TICAL was a MAJOR disappointment and he really only got 1 solid album. This was one of the most anticipated albums of all time. The album was not cohesive it felt like a demo. This album was sabotaged for real.  The 2nd album T2000 is a CLASSIC. This is one of the most gritty albums out there. Him and Streetlife absolutely murdered this album. I think streetlife shoulda been on the cover like ghost was on rae's album cover.

4. Raekwon. Rae does have the best Solo album. But IMMOBALARITY was garbage.  When I copped the first day and heard Yae yo. I thought this album was gonna be fire. But dam did he put up a brick. The beats just wasn't there at all. The bars were. I tried to love the album.  Raekwon needs RZA

5. GZA- I love GZA, I love the deepness of the first album liquid swords. I can't put him ahead of the other guys. The flow is just too lazy to do so.  Most lyrical out the group

6. Dirty McGirt. First and true only album CLASSIC No father to his style. R.I.P . Paved his own lane and career.

7.Deck-Uncontrolled substance was FIRE,. Could be higher because of the features, Tres Leches, Above the clouds, Cold World, Triumph

8. Cappadonna- Killed every Wu Feature, but his debut was not solid at all.

9. U-God- Somebody gotta be 9. But on the real BLACK SHAMPOO is one of the toughest, funniest, weirdest songs off all time much appreciated.

10. Masta Killa. I' aint gonna style on him, but dam man.
