Born and raised in the heart of Staten Island, New York, Ghostface
Killah, born Dennis Coles, is a very well-known member of Wu-Tang Clan,
the celebrated hip-hop group. Emerging from a childhood filled with
poverty, he puts his all into his projects and everything he rhymes
about basically stems from what he's seen and what he's been through in
his life. He is the father of four children (one daughter and three
sons), and one of his sons made his debut in the video for "All I Got
Is You," where he played Ghostface as a child.
He was heavily involved in the album of friend and fellow wu member Raekwon "Only Built for Cuban Linx". The album is considered a classic of mafioso rap.
His albums "Supreme Clientele" and "Fishscale" were attributed with reviving the wu's sound and former glory, using menacing beats, surreal lyrics, and a bravado of mafioso and kung fu street narratives.
