Ghostface Killah is a member of the Wu Tang Clan, one of the most critically and commercially successful hip hop groups of all time. Of the 9 members of the Wu Tang Clan, Ghostface Killah has had the most successful solo career, releasing 7 solo albums to date, including 2006’s chart-topping “Fishscale,” and teaming up with some of the hottest voices in hip hop and R&B, including Missy Elliot, Ne-Yo, Amy Winehouse and Mary J. Blige.
Like his fellow Wu Tang Clan members, Ghostface is strongly influenced by Chinese culture, especially kung-fu films, and he takes his name from a character in the 1976 kung-fu film Mystery of Chessboxing. In fact, the name “Wu Tang Clan” is derived from the name of the Wudang Mountain in Hubei Province, which has a long history associated with Taoism, martial arts, and traditional Chinese medicine.
Known for his stream-of-consciousness style raps and smooth yet frenetic delivery, Ghostface is one of those rare artists who has found both mainstream popularity and critical acclaim. While his tracks are a mainstay on the radio and in clubs in his native New York and far beyond, rarefied music taste-makers Pitchfork dubbed Ghostface, “one of hip hop’s most vibrant voices.”

武当派(Wu-tang Clan)是历史上最著名的嘻哈团体之一，曾在90年代雄霸美国东岸饶舌乐界，是黑帮派系中最具代表性的团体。而鬼脸（Ghostface Killah）则是团体中的佼佼者，随着武当派在90年代初期大获成功以后，他趁势开始了自己的单飞发展，至今已经发行了7张广受好评的专辑，包括06年排行榜冠军专辑《Fishscale》，并且与许多嘻哈R&B界的重量级歌手合作，其中包括Missy Elliot、Ne-Yo、Amy Winehouse和Mary J. Blige等。
鬼脸和武当派其他几位大牌成员一样，深受中国传统文化，特别是功夫片的影响。他的名字就来源于1976年功夫片《双马连环》中的一个角色，而“武当派”的大名则是受到武当山的启发。提到武当山，人们总容易想到道教、武侠和中国传统中药。
鬼脸以他标志性的嘻哈歌词而受到歌迷的欢迎，他是少数几个在让主流大众喜爱的同时还能保持歌词中独立的批判性的歌手之一。随着他的歌曲在纽约、美国乃至全世界的电台和大大小小的酒吧被频繁播放，著名权威网站Pitchfork称他是“当今乐坛最活跃的嘻哈歌手之一”。
