Ghostface Killah, aka Ghostface, Tony Starks, Ironman, (born Dennis Coles on May 9, 1970 in Staten Island, New York) is a member of the hip hop collective Wu-Tang Clan. His name is derived from the alias of the primary villain from the film Ninja Checkmate (aka The Mystery of Chess Boxing). After Wu-Tang Clan achieved breakthrough commercial success in the early 1990s, Ghostface, like his clan-mates, began a solo career, which turned out to be one of the most critically and commercially successful solo careers of the group members. Early in his career he would wear a mask during performances and photo shoots. It was rumored that this was because Ghostface was wanted by the police and did not publicly remove it until his name was cleared.Raekwon (born Corey Woods, January 12, 1970, Brooklyn, New York, United States) is an American East Coast rapper and a member of the Wu-Tang Clan. Raekwon may not have achieved the solo stardom of his fellow Wu-Tang Clan members Method Man, Ol' Dirty Bastard or RZA but along with Genius/GZA and frequent partner Ghostface Killah, he's done some of the most critically acclaimed work outside the confines of the group. His 1995 album Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... is widely considered to be one of the best Wu-Tang solo albums, and one of the finest and most influential hip hop albums of the 1990s. Over the years, Raekwon has become known for staying true to his New York street fan base and making little effort to appeal to those outside of the city.

In The Wu-Tang Manual, RZA explains that Raekwon also derives the "chef" moniker from his experience as an actual chef ("He was known for cooking up some really good fish."), though it is also likely a reference to cooking cocaine, though he has expressed disapproval of the use of cocaine, making him one of the first rappers to vilify selling crack. This idea is made increasingly relevant with Ghostface Killah's album, Fishscale, which includes pictures of Ghostface stuffing drugs into fish and refers to a street term for relatively pure cocaine, fishscale.RZA (IPA pronunciation: /ɹɪzɑ/) (born Robert Diggs, July 5, 1969 in Brownsville, Brooklyn, New York, USA) is an American hip hop producer, rapper and actor. He is the de facto leader of the hip hop group Wu-Tang Clan, and was also a member of Gravediggaz. He has produced almost all of Wu-Tang Clan's albums as well many Wu-Tang solo and affiliate projects. Lately he has gained more attention for his work in films, whether it be on screen or on the boards composing original film scores.

He has also released solo albums under the alter-ego Bobby Digital, which concerns himself only with the lawlessness of the male power fantasy, women, drugs, alcohol and shooting guns.

Currently RZA is working on his new Bobby Digital album and the new Wu-Tang Album 8 Diagrams, as well as the highly-anticipated sequel to Raekwon's mafioso rap classic Only Built 4 Cuban Linx...GZA (pronounced Jiz-uh), aka The Genius, (born Gary Grice August 22, 1966 in Brooklyn, New York City) is an American hip hop artist. He is most well known as a founding member of the seminal hip hop group the Wu-Tang Clan. In addition to appearing on all the Wu-Tang Clan albums he has released five solo albums and has appeared on many other Clanmate's solo releases.Russell Tyrone Jones (November 15, 1968 – November 13, 2004) was an American MC known by the stage name Ol' Dirty Bastard (often shortened to ODB). He was one of the founding members of the hip hop group Wu-Tang Clan.

Ol' Dirty Bastard simultaneously brought a measure of humor and a touch of the absurd to the Wu-Tang Clan. Often noted for his unusual microphone technique (critic Steve Huey writes of Jones' "outrageously profane, free-associative rhymes" delivered "in a distinctive half-rapped, half-sung style"[1]), Jones' stage name came from a 1980 kung fu film entitled Ol' Dirty & The Bastard, the relevance of which was articulated by Method Man's assertion that there was "
