Ghostface Killah

Ghostface Killah (born Dennis Coles in 1970) is a prominent member of the Wu-Tang Clan, where he is involved in production as well as vocals, and embodies a more funk and R&B sound than the other Shaolin natives. While his first solo album Ironman (1996) was a commercial and artistic success, his subsequent albums veered between the excellent(Supreme Clientele, 2000) and the anecdotal. In 2003, he signed to Def Jam and released The Pretty Toney Album, without the help of any Wu-Tang Clan members. In 2006, Ghostface Killah returned to the forefront with Fishscale, which reached No. 4. Then in 2010, he made a major comeback with Apollo Kids. Three years later, the concept album Twelve Reasons To Die is the soundtrack to an imaginary Italian film from the 1970s. As eerie as ever, the masked rapper released 36 Seasons (2014) and followed it up a few months later with the Adrian Younge-produced sequel Twelve Reasons To Die II (2015).
