Wu-Tang Clan’s Greatest Albums – Ranked!

20. Method Man – Tical 2000: Judgement Day (1998)

A bit too long and overloaded with skits (even featuring a bizarre Donald Trump cameo), but if you strip it down to its best tracks—like "Dangerous Grounds" and "Judgement Day"—you’ve got a solid album that still holds up.

19. Ol’ Dirty Bastard – Nigga Please (1999)

This album is just as wild as ODB himself. Chaotic, unpredictable, and full of bizarre production choices, it’s a ride that might not always make sense, but it’s never boring.

18. Czarface – Every Hero Needs a Villain (2015)

Inspectah Deck teams up with 7L & Esoteric to deliver a gritty, fun, comic-book-inspired boom-bap album. Classic Wu-Tang energy with fresh production.

17. RZA – Bobby Digital in Stereo (1998)

RZA’s experimental album leaned into keyboards and electronic elements. It got mixed reactions at the time, but "NYC Everything" and "Love Jones" prove it deserves a second look.

16. Masta Killa – No Said Date (2004)

Late to the solo game, Masta Killa delivered an old-school gem. "Digi Warfare" showed he wasn’t stuck in the past, but the best tracks felt like classic Wu-Tang.

15. Method Man & Redman – Blackout! (1999)

An explosive team-up packed with humor, aggression, and nostalgia for old-school hip-hop. Method Man and Redman were at their peak, and it shows.

14. Ghostface Killah – The Pretty Toney Album (2004)

Ghostface Killah at his most soulful. The album’s lush production, including the audacious "Holla," where he raps over The Delfonics’ "La-La (Means I Love You)" without altering it, is a bold and brilliant move.

13. Wu-Tang Clan – The W (2000)

A comeback album with highlights like "Do You Really (Thang Thang)" and "Let My Niggas Live." Not perfect, but "Gravel Pit" gave Wu-Tang their last true hit.

12. Ghostface Killah – Ironman (1996)

Ghostface, Raekwon, and Cappadonna blend smooth soul samples with razor-sharp storytelling. Ghostface’s solo debut set the stage for his future greatness.

11. Raekwon – Only Built 4 Cuban Linx … Part II (2009)

Most sequel albums disappoint, but this one holds its own. A worthy follow-up to the original, packed with cinematic crime storytelling and top-tier beats.

10. Inspectah Deck – Uncontrolled Substance (1999)

Underrated and overlooked, Deck’s debut album is full of sharp lyricism and beats that still hit hard today.

9. Gravediggaz – 6 Feet Deep (1994)

A dark, horrorcore masterpiece from RZA and Prince Paul. Twisted, eerie, and ridiculously entertaining, it helped define an entire subgenre.

8. Wu-Tang Clan – Wu-Tang Forever (1997)

A massive, ambitious double album. It’s too long, but when it hits—like on "Triumph"—it reminds you why Wu-Tang is forever.

7. Ghostface Killah – Fishscale (2006)

Ghostface proves he’s the most consistent Wu member with an album full of vivid storytelling, raw energy, and beats from J Dilla and MF Doom.

6. Method Man – Tical (1994)

A murky, grimy, classic debut. "Bring the Pain" and "All I Need" are defining moments in 90s hip-hop.

5. Ol’ Dirty Bastard – Return to the 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version (1995)

ODB’s raw, unfiltered genius on full display. A one-of-a-kind album from a one-of-a-kind artist.

4. Ghostface Killah – Supreme Clientele (2000)

A masterpiece that reminded everyone why Wu-Tang still mattered. Ghostface is at his best, and the beats are as sharp as ever.

3. Genius/GZA – Liquid Swords (1995)

A haunting, razor-sharp lyrical masterpiece. GZA and RZA crafted an eerie, cinematic world that remains one of Wu-Tang’s best.

2. Raekwon – Only Built 4 Cuban Linx … (1995)

One of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time. A gripping, cinematic crime saga with Raekwon and Ghostface at their best.

1. Wu-Tang Clan – Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) (1993)

The album that changed everything. Gritty, raw, and unlike anything that came before it. Tracks like "C.R.E.A.M.," "Protect Ya Neck," and "Wu-Tang Clan Ain’t Nuthing ta F’ Wit" remain timeless. A genre-defining masterpiece.
