Method Man appeared on ‘Drink Champs’ and recalled being at the 1996 Soul Train Awards afterparty while on mushrooms. Meth’s journey on ‘shrooms found him encountering both Diddy and Tupac on the same night, with Method Man noting seeing them both was at the height of the East Coast/West Coast rap beef.
Competition has always played a big role in hip hop. Battle rhymes, diss songs, trying to outshine someone on his own song, it’s all in the spirit of competition.
But in the mid-90s, the competition in New York was especially heavy. Let’s think about the rappers were coming up at that time – you had Nas and Big both releasing landmark debuts in ’94, Mobb Deep damn bringing all of Queensbridge wherever they went, Raekwon with The Purple Tape and the rest of Wu-Tang by his side. Most of the rappers on our greatest of all time list came on the ’90s East Coast.
Watch legends Dead Prez, Mobb Deep, M.O.P., Fat Joe, Remy ma, Lil' Flip, David Banner, Project Pat, Three Six Mafia, and Wu-Tang Clan perform their hits on the 2022 Hip Hop Awards stage.
Method Man recently dropped by Math Hoffa’s My Expert Opinion podcast to share some of the stories from his illustrious career.

He recalled an incident that occurred during Janet Jackson’s 2001 MTV Icon special. Meth felt so badly about the way he treated Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams that he issued them a public apology.
As covered by Framing Britney Spears, 10-year-old Britney was a contestant on two 1992 episodes of Star Search. Spears wowed host Ed McMahon with her first appearance, singing Eva Tanguay's "I Don't Care" and edging out the prior champion.

In an exclusive interview with HipHopDX he said the show will return this fall. “American Saga will start airing in September,” he revealed. “That story will be complete for the season.

I feel like that’s important for me to continue to tell our stories through cinema.” He went on to hint that production is still ongoing. “That’s going to take some time to develop a new script. But I’m having a great time finishing up the new season of American Saga.”
Wu-Tang Clan music was raw, grimy, laced with kung-fu references, and featured tongue-in-cheek lyrics over top of distorted soul samples. Quite frankly, it was like nothing else we’d ever heard before, and to this day, their music remains unquestionably singular with their debut album, “Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)” going onto be considered one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time.
"Grand Finale" is a song by rappers DMX, Ja Rule, Method Man and Nas. It is first single from the soundtrack to the 1998 film, Belly. The single made it to number 63 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks and number 18 on the Hot Rap Singles.
Method Man, the only rapper to appear on Notorious B.I.G. and 2 Pac albums while the two artists were alive, is primarily known for his music as a member of the Wu-Tang Clan (“Method Man”). In 1994, Method Man released the first of his six solo albums including “Tical,” a RIAA-certified platinum album, and “Tical 2000: Judgement Day.”
Standout tracks from those albums include “Bring the Pain,” “Judgement Day,” and “Break Ups 2 Make Ups,” featuring past Verzuz guest D’Angelo, and “I’ll Be There for You/You’re All I Need to Get By,” Method Man’s duet — a wildly popular wedding song — with legendary R&B singer Mary J. Blige.
Back when music was real, artist had the opportunity to shine in their own distinctive way. Rap is one of the most distinctive features of hip-hop. Rappers use rhythm, lyrics, and vocal tone to express themselves. The best rappers are distinguished by their “flow” – the way the words run together without the performer getting tongue-tied.
Wu Tang Clan is scheduled to perform five shows in the United States through 2021.
The hip hop group’s mini tour includes two shows in Detroit on May 25 and 26, and three rescheduled shows in Uncasville, Conn. on July 22, Atlantic City, N.J. on July 23 and Hanover, Md. on July 24.
They are also set to perform at III Points Festival in Miami, which is taking place October 22 and October 23. Other performers include The Strokes, Eric Prydz, Kaytranada, Zhu, Khrubangbin, Three 6 Mafia and Thundercat.
Wu-Tang members Method Man has been added to Godfather of Harlem season 2. Hip Hop icon Method Man, who also stars on Power Book II, will play Sam Christian, the head of the Philadelphia Black Mafia, and a longtime friend of Bumpy Johnson’s.
From Epix: Godfather of Harlem Season 2 finds Bumpy Johnson battling the New York Crime Families for control of the lucrative and murderous “French Connection,” the pipeline for heroin that runs from Marseilles to New York Harbor.
