Why isnt Method Man, Immortal Technique and the other members of the Wu-Tang on the list?

Quite the opposite problem, although one of the things the clan was grouped around was common 5 percenter philosophy, GFK is now Muslim. That's fine, because he's listed over there are not here, but is it possible to have it say "Wu Tang Clan" with like a parenthetical afterword which reads "Except Ghostface"?

In fact, is it possible to not list groups at all? Like I know Wyclef is a 5%er, but Lauryn Hill seems pretty obsessed with what 5%ers would call the "Mystery God". It just seems like to label groups by religion is tricky business, like if you label Beastie Boys Jewish, that's fine cuz MCA's an ethnic Jew, but what about other less consistent members of the group? Plus, they don't rap about Jewish things but MCA is quite outspoken about his Buddhism, why not call them a Buddhist rap group? It just seems like a weird thing to categorise, the religious affiliation of musical GROUPS. Dsmccohen 11:58, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
