Masta Killa (Elgin Turner) was born on August 18, 1969 in Brooklyn, New York is an American rapper and member of the Wu-Tang Clan.

Though one of the lesser-known members of the group and largely absent from their debut album, he has been prolific on Clan group albums and solo projects since the mid-1990s, and released his debut album No Said Date in 2004 to positive reviews.

Masta Killa was the last member to join the Wu-Tang Clan; consequently he did not appear on the group's debut single "Protect Ya Neck."

Masta only appeared on one track on the Wu-Tang Clan's first album, though his only verse on the album, the closing verse to "Da Mystery Of Chessboxin", is considered by many fans to be one of its most memorable.

During the first round of solo projects, he made several appearances on tracks now considered Wu-Tang classics, such as "Winter Warz", "Duel Of The Iron Mic", and "Glaciers Of Ice".

His flow at the time attracted attention for being very slow and laidback, in contrast to the more manic, forceful styles of members like Inspectah Deck or Ghostface Killah. Masta Killa is also the Clansman fondest of Chinese martial arts imagery.

In 1997 (1997 in music), the Wu-Tang Clan's second album Wu-Tang Forever saw Masta become a mainstay in the group's line-up with regular appearances throughout the double album.
