always greatly appreciated MK but that westwood freestyle with mef and uey, has pissed me right off, MK was wack. sad but true..
Not his best but I love his verse on Kiss The Ring, great verse to end an amazing album
"You rap cats had ya last win, toast to kings, it's Wu-Tang it's our thing, kiss the ring"
Such a perfect line to be the last on the record
Assassination Day
War is extremely serious and it saddens me
To have to take tings to deadly measures
And have you measured and shot for no pay
It's assassination day I stalk my enemy like prey
Tranked by deceptional sounds that deceives
And lures MC's to the lair
With a mic-like bait, then awaits to be bitten by greed
Temptation tempts my victim to proceed
Forward, ignorance wouldn't allow retreat
You'd rather pursue DEATH than admit defeat
Now who's best to describe for what I specialize in
Murdereous rhymin, constantly in climbin
My mind spits with an enormous kickback
Your brain didn't absorb the impact
Disorderly conduct from the crowd is the feedback...
For a long time having Masta on a track was, in my eyes, a sure fire guarantee the track was gonna be a Wu Banger. Ninja style from the mysterious General. All the classic been mentioned on the thread but in particular Assassination Day and Execute Them are as dark as Wu gets and Masta just slices them to bits. Check the solos and search out a dud Masta collaboration. Not easy. First one I can recall not liking was that joint on BDR but I'm sure there were probably earlier ones.
Mad underated dude.
1112 or Wu Gambinos I am thinking.....so many great ones though.
Execute Them is crazy too

What about "Wolves"?
GZA's Beneath The Surface album is has some of the best-written Wu-Tang verses. Masta Killa's "1112" verse might be his best, and is better than most members' best. The Killah Priest verse on "Beneath The Surface" might be the best Wu-Tang verse ever.
Check his part on "Illusions":
Intriguing to the ear but bitter to the heart
I begin to take part in the art of dart throwing
Starring the Wu-Tang swordsmen
Raindrops fall the block remains hot
Steam rises from the streets which form the clouds that I move through
Renew my stainless sword style
Allah has spoken
The golden code of silence has been broken
Mic terrorist
Shroom brew wickedness improves
As I ascend and expand, extend I seen men
Fall from grace tryin' to trace the origin
But there's no beginning or end to the lifeline
Sunz of Man forever shine through the mic line
His verse on Afu-Ra's "Mortal Kombat" is nice too.
