Dave is the perfect cast for Method Man

[@tashrenee]

He sounds just like him !

[@darkmatter7668]

Tbh, he doesn't really get Meth's cadence down in the show when he raps his parts. Sounds off, which is weird cuz he's an actual rapper lol.

[@81sexislim]

@@darkmatter7668 you kinda right but I dnt think no one could have played Meth better than East. He's as good as it gets playing Meth to me

[@Imnotyabuddypal]

Almost as perfect as you 😏

[@drebaby72988]

I feel like they could've done better than Dave

The rapper in Dave is allowing him to finish some of those bars. Some of the lyrics he knew prior but there was some he just guessed and he was correct.
