Ghost is my answer. He's in my top 5 and might have more good-to-classic albums than anyone, but he's been super off for years. The flow is gone, replaced by a very slow and predictable style. Rapping over soul-less live instrumentation doesn't help.

Meth the only Wu member who still sounds decent. Rae is aite but the music isn't hitting for me.

Em--lost the ability to make dope ass songs just to outbar everyone and everything which made the songs trash on top of having people around to curate the beats which has been a weak point from the MMLP on and keeps getting worse.

Kurupt-Stagnant and the boozing obviously had an effect on his breath control and trains of thought,his vocab did not mature and stayed in tough guy mode when his most enjoyable songs are not that

Prodigy- went from god level rhyme ability to hurling off beats insults and tin foil concepts after Murda Muzik with a flow so choppy and square you could slice cheese with it.He had a little bounce back when he came home from jail though and that Albert Einstein album was his last great project,that shyt had me stoked for a return to form.

Dom Kennedy-Cant even begin to describe how much of a let down dude's skill level was to me.he was never a top tier MC but his song concepts,vibe and less is more approach made me a fan..and then Yellow happened which was a let down but it got worse and worse.Dude rhymes like he records in an echo chamber without headphones.

It’s hard to pick from the four losers of the apocalypse. Canibus, Kurupt, Killah Priest and Ras Kass.

I'm reminded of that thread that was about Ghost taking raps from the lesser known Wu-affiliates :mjlol:

Yea ghost sounds like he lost several steps after ~2014, he had been the most consistent clan member
