Good read, there is a lack of great lyricists in the mainstream, underground wise we good though.
Thanks for this, Major. I love hearing about lyricism from GZA, who is one of hip hop's truly brilliant lyricists.

I remember first thinking GZA's voice sounded boring when i was 13.
But when i got older i somehow got to really like his monotonous voice. It grew on me where he became my favorite Wu-Member. But that's also cause of the lyrics and delivery

Could make a SOLID argument. Dude just creates his verses on another level. So complex, yet so simple. I guess complex in it's simplicity. The visuals he creates and angles he takes to tackle subject matters

I've always been more of a Ghost/Rae/Meth fan when it comes to Wu. I think its down to them being an easier listen. I do like Liquid Swords and I think you have a great point @DJ Dope-Needlz about his voice being monotonous, making some of stuff a bit harder to listen to. I'm going to go back and get stuck into Liquid Swords over the next few days though,.

I always feel like GZA speaks through his nose or something but still a great MC
Yea, he has that nasally voice. And RZA has that voice where it sounds like he has a mouth full of marbles. But to me that's part of their appeal.
