Ironman is the debut album by Wu-Tang Clan member Ghostface Killah, an American hip hop artist. Compared to other first generation solo albums released by Wu-Tang members, it is overtly soul based owing much of its thematic scope, mythology and samples from classic 60's and 70's blaxploitation as well as Kung Fu films. It is also notable for being more open in its references to the 5% Nation and the Clan's beliefs as a whole as is illustrated in the vocal interlude before the song Black Jesus.
