Method Man is living proof that age is simply a number. If you take care of your body, your body will take care of you

I met Method Man as a young reporter when he came to perform in Trinidad back in the 90s. He was such a cool character and we just chatted for about an hour and it was not an interview, we were just talking. I'll never forget how gentle he was. I'm happy to see how excellent he is doing at this stage in his career! Love him always! ❤❤❤

[@justbusiness01]

[@lawsantim2364]

Agreed. He said he made a conscious effort to focus on acting and these last few seasons on Power have really been impressive.

[@mamba4817]

Todays generation can't rap with him and his generation. That's the real way to phrase it

[@DarkJustice1999]

I love watching the evolution of Method Man. He makes me smile because he’s so open and honest. He lays all this ish out there. He admits his errors and apologies for what he did. He talks about health, life and just seems like that man I would love to sit down at my table and have a good dinner conversation with. Thanks to the Breakfast Club for bringing him on the show.

[@teeoh9192]

It baffles the mind that Method Man suffered from low self-esteem & insecurity. That man OOZED confidence when he was rocking! Yet another example of, you never know what people are going through. Salute to this legend!

His commitment to maintain his self as he has aged gracefully has her been beautiful to see.

[@bboss7874]

I'm 33. I remember back in like 2003 or 2004. The last summer jam that was free here in Detroit down at Heart Plaza, I had backstage passes with a couple of my homies, and I got to perform right next to Method Man on stage. I was literally one person away from him rocking out to the crowd. classic moment for me.💯

[@CEE662]

Dope!...I was there!✌🏽

[@flapdrol75]

I'm 36 and i remember some day in the early 00s i was smoking weed outside a bar we play pool at in Amsterdam. All of the sudden we seen methodman walk by. So i told my friend and he did not believe me. So we followed him and i said Yoo meth, i love your music and gave him a fist bump. Haha, thats the whole story but it made my day. Classic moment for me. Very awesome moment btw. Would be such a experience to be backstage watching a performance. Thanks for sharing.

[@PowerVaultNetwork]

Method Man is an absolute legend in the world of hip-hop and beyond. Method Man's impact extends beyond his music and acting. He has consistently used his platform to address social and political issues, shedding light on the struggles faced by marginalized communities and advocating for positive change.

[@AllureKeys]

This was a great interview & I agree with Charla about perceiving our Hip Hop OG as greek mythology ; I could listen to some of them talk about their stories all day! This interview felt like the old breakfast club days when this would be a Throwback Thursday interview.

I LOVE METH, HE IS MY FAVORITE MEMBER OF THE WU. HOWEVER, GHOSTFACE IS THE BEST RAPPER OF WU-TANG AND HE HAS THE BEST SOLO CATALOG OUT OF THE WHOLE ROSTER. IRON MAN, SUPREME CLIENTELE, PRETTY TONY, FISCHSCALE. SUPREME AND FISCHSCALE ARE CLASSICS

[@flapdrol75]

They should have been there allready. But since these days hip hop is the most popular genre i think its a duty to give them a R&R Hall of fame to teach these kids who made hip hop big.
