Editing U-God (section)

=== ''Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)'' / ''Wu-Tang Forever'' ===
U-God was convicted on the grounds of [[Illegal weapons trade|firearm]] and [[drug possession]] charges on April 17, 1992, and was paroled in January 1993. His incarceration prevented him from attending the group's debut album ''[[Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)]]'' recording sessions for the most part, his input on the seminal LP consisting of only a short [[bridge (music)|bridge]] on the group's debut single "[[Protect Ya Neck]]" as well as the fan-favorite 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" (the others being [[Inspectah Deck]] with "The City", [[RZA]] with "Sunshower" and [[Ol' Dirty Bastard]] with "Dog Shit").
