I think the skits in Enter the Wu-Tang add something special.. Make the album kind of like "from the life of..." sort of thingy if you know what I mean. Well I guess that's what generally the point of the skits is, but this is probably the only case where I love them.

most people tend to think skits ruin an album. However, I've come across quite a few hardcore hip-hop enthusiasts who believe it's almost become necessary to the hip-hop album. My favorite hip-hop albums tend to have some form of skits on them, and I think they add crucial character to those albums

Although there are exceptions, skits are generally for the worse.

I love De La Soul's skits (I don't know why)

a classic (and a great simple diss)

I can't find it on youtube but "Mr. Hood Gets A Haircut" from KMD's Mr. Hood is pretty hilarious.

Everyone's favourite!
