Inspectah Deck is an American rapper, actor, and producer who’s known as one of the members of the famous groups Wu-Tang Clan and Czarface. His popularity came into view due to his critically acclaimed ways of intricate lyricism on many of his group’s most detailed songs. In the latter journey of his career as a musician, he has later transitioned as a producer in his own accord and co-managing tracks and releases for his fellow Wu rappers. Although he has only shown his true self and has never sugar-coated his unnoticeable image in the group, Deck managed to keep his position as one of the most featured members on some of his group’s albums. In his career, he is remembered as someone who has given justice to various singles like C.R.E.A.M, Protect Ya Neck, and Da Mystery of Chessboxin by providing strongly acclaimed verses for each track.
