RZA has claimed that his fellow Wu-Tang Clan legend, GZA, is the greatest MC of all time.
Speaking on Drink Champs, the iconic rapper and producer was asked to compare Nas and GZA, which he was reluctant to do.
He said: “In which way? They’re both very powerful brothers.”
RZA then expanded his thoughts by saying: “For MC-ing, my favorite, best MC is the GZA. I don’t think no MC could beat the GZA. I think what GZA has written for hip-hop, no other MC can compare.”

He then compared the “Liquid Swords” titan against various other rappers: “Even if you go look at Rakim, who is one of the greatest, to most people, one of the greatest. Nas is one of the greatest. If you go look at what GZA offered to hip hop, look at what he spawned. He spawned me, Meth, Rae, Ghost — these are all from GZA, the enlightener.”
The Wu-Tang Clan recently announced that they were getting back into the video game business.
The legendary rap group previously released Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style in 1999, a game that went on to become a cult classic.

Now they’ve announced a cooperative action RPG called Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver, which allows up to four players to join together to protect their home of Shaolin.
Over the course of the game, the player is required to find each member of the Wu-Tang Clan, all of whom have gone missing.
While all members of the Clan will be in the game, it has not been confirmed if any of the group will be playable characters.

The Wu are currently on their final ever tour, which kicked off earlier this month and will run for 27 dates across North America.
RZA shared a statement about the tour.
“Wu-Tang Clan has shown the world many chambers throughout our career; this tour is called ‘The Final Chamber,’” he began. “This is a special moment for me and all my Wu brothers to run around the globe together one more time and spread the Wu swag, music, and culture. Most importantly to touch our fans and those who have supported us throughout the years.
“On this tour we’re playing songs we’ve never played before to our audience and me and our production team have designed a Wu-Tang show unlike anything you’ve ever seen. And to top it off we’ve got the amazing Run the Jewels on our side.”
