He has been with the group since its inception, and has been known for coming with strong verses on Clan albums as well as other members solo albums.
U-God was born in Brownsville, Brooklyn, New York. However he moved to Staten Island, New York as a youth. He was originally a beatboxer for clan affiliate Cappadonna, as well as being well known friends with future members Method Man, Inspectah Deck, and Raekwon. Sometime before the members united, U-God was mentored in rap by Cappadonna. He soon became friends with RZA and Ghostface Killah, and he began rhyming under the alias Golden Arms, based on the kung-fu movie The Kid with The Golden Arms. Later on narcotics possession prevented him from featuring heavily on the group's debut album Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers), his input on the seminal LP consisting of only a short bridge on the group's debut single "Protect Ya Neck" in 1992 as well as the famous opening verse of "Da Mystery of Chessboxin'". Nevertheless, after his release he quickly became known to fans for his rugged flow and bass-like voice on Wu tracks such as "Winter Warz", "Knuckleheadz", "Investigative Reports", and "Black Jesus". He was featured heavily on the group's second album Wu-Tang Forever on which he was one of only four of the group to get a solo track - "Black Shampoo" (While the others being Inspectah Deck with "The City", Ol' Dirty Bastard with "Dog Shit" and RZA with "Sunshower"; clan affiliate and singer Tekitha sang 'Second Coming' solo). Around this time his young son was accidentally shot and injured, an ordeal the rapper documented on the Wu-Tang Clan track "A Better Tomorrow". He appeared with all the clan members during the VH1 Hip-Hop Honors, as well as on tour for the release of Wu Tang Clan's latest album, 8 Diagrams. U-God released his third studio album Dopium in 2009 and touring around the globe in support of 8 Diagrams. He released his fourth studio album Keynote Speaker in 2013.

U-God Lyrics
Yea aye
(Yea uhh)
Yeah!
Heavy weights (ayee)
Stacking up for my estate (uh huh)
Came and stamped 5D with no debate (uh yea)
Better look quick or you gonna miss doll
In the cockpit latched up lift off (aye)
She wanna come fly with me aye risking her life with me
cye, yea, uh, what?, uhh
She came from the back then she gon' ask if she can vibe with me (aye)
I got the pack she got the back she- wanna get high with me
Yea, uh
Had to get rid of the waste
Had to get back in that place
Yea I had to speed up the pace
Had to reopen a case (uhh)
Had to put her in her place
Might cop the bottle the cce
Lil' mama wanna taste
Lil' mama wanna race
Yea
Yea we came from the yard
On point like guard
Baby girl I'm like CP
Give you a piece
Then I shoot far
Heavy weights (ayee)
Stacking up for my estate (uh huh)
Came and stamped 5D with no debate (uh yea)
Better look quick or you gonna miss doll
In the cockpit latched up lift off (aye)
She wanna come fly with me aye risking her life with me
cye, yea, uh, what?, uh
She came from the back then she gon' ask if she can vibe with me (aye)
I got the pack she got the back she wanna get high with me
Yea
(God Jani)
Just relax, open your mouth don't be silent with me
She want me to hit, she want me to beat but won't get violent with me
Girl you with a heavy weight young Muhammad cli
Yea we getting plenty cake, come hop in the Jeep
(God body)
We hittin the stage, she stuck an amazed, she love the show stopper in me
Got on my shades feel like Johnny Cage, whole crowd rockin with me (they rockin!!)
I walk to the stage and see my opponent but he ain't watching me (watchin' me)
Soon as I stand in front of his eyes now he coppin a plea
cww man throw in the towel
Know what I'm sayin'
They don't want it
cnd the winner is...
