Killah Sin is, really, one of the greatest wu affiliate (like you, I’m not putting Priest very far behind). But the thing is, every killah sin verse makes you realize he’s even one of the greatest emcees ever! Listen to his verse on “Bronzeman” on bronze nazareth’s the great migration album; matter of fact, listen to any of his verses (La the darkman album, etc), and you’ll realize how gifted he is at this. Talking about Pacewon getting desperately older and older, I think the greatest loss for hip hop is killah sin never getting any shine.
I was a big wu stan in my teenage years, and now that I’m quite past that, I still can’t lose my admiration for the skills of killah sin – at this mature age when I finally stop buying any wu affiliate album coming out, even learning about wu members releases at the same time as everybody else.

One Wu weed carrier that was really fucking dope that people always forget is Shyheim The Rugged Child.

Shyheim’s first album was really great and he wrote it when he was thirteen! Thirteen!

I don’t know, I feel like Cappa was always teetering on the edge of being really bad, even when he was really good. If that makes any sense.

Totally. Play his verses on “Iron Maiden” and “Wu Banga 101″ back-to-back, and it’s startling. Almost hard to believe it’s the same guy.

I always thought of Sunz of Man as the definitive affiliate group, but perhaps I’m alone on that one.

It’s baffling how fast Cappadonna became a punchline. I really like The Pillage but no one ever fell off faster.

“Shouldn’t Cappadonna get a pass strictly for his verse on Winter Warz?”

Abso-frickin-lutely. That might be a top 10 Wu-related verse.

I think Cappadonna turned in his pass when he did his verse for “Buck 50.”

Also, I think Killarmy roughly = Monster Island Czars, with the tie going to Killarmy for appearing both on the Larry Sanders Show and Upright Citizens Brigade.
