best of the wu tang

So assuming we could give awards to each Wu Tang member in 10 categories, who would get them:

The ten categories would be:
Lyricism
Flow
Voice
Delivery
Content
Most Influential
Most Original
Most Successful
Self sufficiency
Overall Best

I'll give Lyricism to Inspectah Deck. Flow to Method Man. Voice to U God. Content to Raekwon. Delivery to Ghostface. Influential to GZA. Original to Old Dirty Bastard.

I have a hard time with most successful. Ghostface, in the current era. But Raekwon was also successful back then. ODB was at the limelight shortly before he died. But Method Man was probably the breakthrough member, so I give it to him.

Self sufficiency (aka being able to record entire songs and albums without using features as a crutch). This one is hard.

Overall best, this is really hard as well.

Co-sign on everything you mostly said. I'd say RZA is definitely the most influential (and most successful along with Meth) I'd replace Best flow with Ghostface, tho and voice to Meth

good point about voice on meth.

poor masta killa didn't get any awards, but he does come close on several of them.

and capadonna gets nothing. he's not a member. and if he were, he'd be the worst.
