When Method broke down acting methods, he once again demonstrated to us why he is a global treasure in Hip Hop. He invests heavily in his crafts. Multi-talented artist.
FACTS!
But he not as natural as Pac even after all these years of experience. He said the only movie Pac was good in was Juice.
The females love wutang in NC
Agreed ❤
For certain parts not all roles
I live on staten and I happen to go to the same gym as meth did maybe like 7 years ago and the fact that he acknowledged me a few times and said "you're one of the hardest working people in here" to me will always resonate in my heart because he is so well respected by everyone .. def one of the best compliments I ever got in my life ❤
dope. respect to you putting in work
Did you let him smash?
@@silewis9396 thank you ! It was the old LA fitness off victory n the 440. I miss that gym so much.. it was home n dope to see him at times
💯💯💯
Nice man. I love this dude. I been a Wu head since day one. One love from Zimbabwe Africa. Crazy enuf I was wearing my Wu Tang T shirt yesterday.
This man is 52 years old !! He definitely looks like he’s in his 30’s 💯 METH is a LEGEND 🔥🔥
“My disadvantages are my advantages cause I’m always underestimated from the door but I'm always ready- so I don’t have to get ready” 100!!!💚💚💚
RZA is a genius. He knew most of the group was too deep lyrically for commercial appeal so he put the most marketable out of the group on side B of their first single. He was the youngest, good looking, and fun so RZA knew he would be the one to capture the pop culture since they knew they already had the streets.
💯💯💯💯
Rza was a genius for sure. Took a bunch of brothers from the street, most who would have been fated for prison or premature death, and gave them a shot at a life they could have only dreamed of. Rza doesn't get enough credit. He deserves his flowers.
This my new favorite episode
This is it right here. 🎯
I don’t think Rza thought he’s the good looking and youngest Lmao they all had option deals as for why he put it out first it’s a catchy abc song yes
The breakdown of “Method Man” shows exactly why he is a genius in this. If you don’t listen to different genres and take in different inspiration, you’ll be limited in your creativity.

Meth is super intelligent. I could listen to him talk all day. Also my favorite rapper of all time.
@tonyalcaro394 Meth could be more intelligent if he stop all the weed smoking and liquor drinking. Plus Meth taking pride in he used to be or still is on dus/wet when he said that Big L used to sell him his dust/wet, show you that he isn't that intelligent. No intelligent, self loving, self caring & self respecting person take pride in being a drug addict.
@tonyalvaro394 Meth isn't to super intelligent, if he was he would not be smoking all the weed that he does , nor feeling proud of buying drugs from Big L.
@naaimshareef shut up. He's far more intelligent than you. He's mad successful and you're a peasant.
I cannot watch this in a single session. Benn rewinding every 10 minutes and my eyes are bloodshot now. Definitely a Top 10 storyteller. Never saw EFN this engaged and N.O.R.E. actually let the guest share without excessive interruptions.
exactly!!
Totally Agree!
Whoa! You convinced me I'll watch this next
Meth & Red together performing is next level energy unlocked.... some of the best performances I've seen
I have seen most hip hop, rnb and rap performers out there, and nothing compares to method and redman together. Thoses guys had so much energy and sang every song they had. At some point I was like... Wait a minute, is that a new song? I dont know that one and after 3 hous i was like... Damn, how much longer are this guys doing this!!!
Best ever in my book!
Big facts
facts!!!
@@M0T0CR055gotta watch busta rhymes my brethren
Yessir!!! Seen them in Milwaukee. One of the best shows
I love the fact that The OG rappers are preserved and figured out a way to get they second wind.
It's because those OG's actually had to hustle,that mentality and level of skill and consistency,they'll find a lane.
I'm the same age as Meth - lots of the crowd at Wu gigs are in their 40s & 50s. There's still a good market 🙌
Meth remind me of that homie that never flip or change up no matter the situation. Method like a real big brother to people he ain't even met before
@lindamndlov2023 Method man is 50 plus years old, a father & a grandfather and took pride in the fact that he use to buy drugs from Big L smh. Dude need to grow up & mature.
There's so much love in this episode! Human, respectful, grounded. Cherish this gems!
I've always respected Meth for being his own man & still giving flowers to others outside of the clan..Salute!!
Right 💐
It’s so dope how he has always done that from day one. Much respect for shining a light on that
For real 💯💪🏾
Correct. He has always been that way.
Wu Tang aint one of those groups with a large female fanbase but they show up for Method Man
We sure do 😌
...yea cuz METHOD MAN has a large female fan base. It ain't rocket science
That was RZAs plan. Meth was used to bring in the ladies
Pause.
Wu tang had a female fan base since their first single from what I remember
I just got back from the NY state of mind tour. That shit was off the hook!! Best show ever!!! Was such a blessing to see so many legends on stage together. dj scratch, de la soul, talib kweli, the wu and nas. 💛👐
same for their last show of the tour just 2 days ago
Priceless. Meth has always been on his game. Intelligent, talented and beyond real. WU forever. This show was straight up a classic.
Method Man is definitely one of my favorite rappers out of the 90's
Method Man is so cool you can just tell. Politicians are temporary, but Wu-Tang Clan is forever. Their rise to prominence in the 1990s definitely helped me a lot. Love that Drink Champs keeps Big L's name alive. Never knew Method Man used to go uptown to see him. 🙏🏻
He is as cool as can be I met him twice in the mall once when I was like 8 and 19 each time he never had a security and or a huge ego
@@sammymobs3889 Awesome to know. Hope I meet him one day and give him thanks.
This was a classic episode. Watching this episode felt like I was reading a good suspenseful adventures book,shot out to the ledge 💪💪
@@sammymobs3889what mall? You from NYC?
@@teo5836 yea met him at shaolin mall
I used to watch my How High DVD nearly everynight when i was a teen and wake up to the menu track! will be forever in my head classic! Mad love to Redman & Methodman always
Enjoyed the heck out of this conversation and learned some new details as well. You’re an icon, Meth. Thank you!
You can tell he took his acting very serious, he came a long way. He was always good to me, but he definitely elevated his acting skills.
I knew he took it serious when he cut his beard for The Mortician
This man still puts out free styles on a weekly basis. He deserves all the flowers you can give him. I love how you guys salute the real. Long live m-e-t-h-o-d - man
he literally said he doesnt freestyle AT ALL on his instagram last month ... what is wrong with u ppl -_-
u talking about the bootleg youtube videos?
yea Redman has been freestyling for weeks now on RUclips not meth bro so maybe you are confusing them with each other but meth don't drop freestyles every week bro.
@@eddiestephenson5740 Yeah I was just going to say that is Redman doing those weekly videos on youtube. People get them mixed up it seems at times.
I absolutely love this man! The only man I have ever jumped on stage for....twice.
Shout out to Wu. You guys changed the hip hop game. Brothers who had the world by their hands 👏🏼👍🏼🔥❤️🤜🏼🤛🏼
Side note: Meth acting is great God bless black excellence 🙏🏻 🎉❤😊👏🏼🔥👍🏼✊🏼
The best thing about this episode was that Nore didn’t interrupt Meth all the time. Real talk. The respect was there. Amazing episode 🔥🔥🔥 much love from Sweden 🇸🇪
Damn u watching this all the way in Sweden, dats wats up frfr
@@cheezecheeze8775 Facts! Cool to see the love from other parts of the globe.
@stephen FACTS
Beat thing Nore ever did was chill on the interruptions.. and to kill that horn he used to use.. and the every 30 second "make some noise BS" he used to do
@@travelbizz920 FACTS
One of the most talented, inspirational, entertaining artist ever..
Love seeing Meth's continued health, success and happiness.
Meth is one of the best MC's of all time and it is great to see him mature in the way that he has. We can all learn from the wisdom of someone who has risen to the height of heights and then had to recover from being out of the prime position. Suuuuuuuu!
This is the best interview I have seen on the show so far. Hands down. Thank you so much.
Epic interview. You will never get this level of intimacy from a rapper on vladtv. Nore sets the vibe that makes the guest comfortable to open up and be themselves as if it’s just friends hanging out. Method man is a legend
That's cause they respect Nore and been knew him for years
Ain’t no one look comfortable sitting solo shot for vlad -🎥 🪑. 😂
I swear
Vlad shouldn’t even be in our culture
@@BlacknEducatedso you should boycott the dudes that say fuck the community and still go on there. They know people don’t like vlad and they still go. Vlad not the problem they are. He would have no platform if they simple said no. It’s that easy. You mad at the wrong people. It’s easier to always blame white 🤷🏽♂️
THE WIRE had me in a chokehold ...A Classic!
You are welcome
Yesssssssss!!! I was so addicted
The greatest Drama tv show of all time hands down
Great interview!! Love when guests are happy to be getting their flowers and Meth is full of charisma, great storyteller as well.
Mef came out at the end of Dave Chappelle show in Chicago last night!! 🔥🔥🔥
Dayyyuuummmm!!! I know that was a treat!!
What?!!! Speak on it!
He did the same in Nashville. I also went to The N.Y state of mind tour concert. Young Buck was two feet away from me at the front of the stage, being a fan and him and Meth shared a blunt.
I used to listen to Method Man when I was 63, and now I am 13. This will forever be a classic.
Keep aging backwards my guy
Benjamin Button is that you???¿
This shit is funny😂😂😂😂😂😂😂lol
Messed my head up
U rhyme backwards as well⁉️⁉️⁉️ like kriss kross⁉️⁉️⁉️
Method Man is a national treasure!
Meth... full respect for this interview...I love how you never leave out your roots amongst the chatter, Shaolin.... forever Staten... we can all remember the battles back in the day on the corners, at the Wave etc... but you succeeding is a win for the whole borough... keep reppin with your humble and respectful nature. Your such an intelligent speaker... always have been .. much love to Drink Champs..N.O.R.E and DJ E.F.N... you all do great interviews
I love how he completely reveals the references behind M.E.T.H.O.D Man like it is nothing lmao!! Every person listening to this has the *exact* reaction EFN and Nore are having after hearing it.
Simply amazing. Meth is truly a creative.

Method Man 😍😍😍I could listen to him talk for hours. The stories were captivating! Great interview!
Him breaking down Method man is just epic all the genres included and how it all came together to be a masterpiece
Meth killed it in Toronto on October 1st, 2023 with Nas!
Method Man is and always will be one of the 🐐s . Lyrical Assassin at it's finest and can bar to bar with the best of them. Classic albums under his belt and a underrated album 4:21 The Day After. Drink Champs with another one 💪.
AND he getting better still! He still improving! That’s the motherfucker of the whole thing
💯
💯🫡 Great episode!! Wu-tang forever 👍🏽😎Method Man…. School of Method!!!!!!!
Wu TanG Killa Beez 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
Could watch method videos for hours back in the day. His lyrics flow, movements, fashion everything
Could've watched another 2 hours of them interviewing Meth. A true icon to the culture and those who Hip Hop grew up with.
Meth was part of the first concert I ever attended! The Hard Knock Life tour in 1999 with him, Redman, Jay-Z, and DMX. I remember Method man and Redman flying over the crowd in jumpsuits during their set. Good times!!
Great interview. I loved Wu Tang back in the day and still do. I was in high school and drawing that W everywhere.
One of THE BEST interviews on Drink Champs in my humble opinion. Continued blissings to Clifford "Method Man" Smith Jr. & his family! A real genuine man.🫶🏾✨️💯
The Wire is a groundbreaking show. However, let's not forget where it all started...THE CORNER!..HBO at it's finest and still has the same impact.
One of the biggest joys of watching these videos is showing the growth of these artists. Seeing them from when they were wily and fresh from the streets to the mature, introspective individuals that they’ve become is so rewarding.
BEEN Rockin W/This Guy Since The Fangs/F****d Up Eye/Half Braided Hair! His Humility/Dwn To Earth Nature Is What Does It For Me. To See Him “Get His Thang In Action” Is BEYOND Words! U DEF Get Ya Monies Worth! He IS Your Fav Rappers Fav! He STILL & FOREVA Got BARZ/FLOW🎤🔥! STILL & FOREVA MAD EASY On The Eyes!
Nore/DJ EFN Thx A Bunch For Having My FAV MC IN THE WHOLE UNITED WORLD M-E-T-H-O-D Man On Drink Champs!
I love this Interview. Everyone looking happy and having fun.
Davis McClean aka Method Man aka Tical on Drink Champs was needed. Redman definitely needs to be on Drink Champs too. And if possible the whole of Wu-Tang in one episode R.I.P. ODB 🙏🏿👐🏿 Wu-Tang is for everyone
They need to get Redman & Method Man on an ep together, that’d be DOPE!
@akingwithwords2144 they got like 2 albums together already
@@BrackingtonMusicGroupLLCyou’ve read the comment wrong..
@DROMSTA ep definitely meant episode 🤣
@@kingnacho4769 my bad
Shit! I still want another Red and Meth album lol
Dope thank you 🙏🏾 Nore Efn
And of course “As the world turns I spread like germ,plus the globe and the pestilence the hard head ain’t never learn” Tical🤴🏾🤴🏾🤴🏾✊🏾
Why is Method Man so fine? I just love how multi-faceted he is! Salute King!
One hour in and this is one of the best Drink Champs Ive seen. Both Nore and Meth are legends that have stood the test of time. Meth has matured umbelievably, and Nore has come so far from the shooter he was known to be in the 90s.. these guys exemplify what grown black men should aim to be.
Facts! 💯💯💯💯
Charisma is off the charts. Such a great storyteller. METH-TICAAAAAAAAL
We love you Method Man.
Angela Winbush is long overdue
She is legendary Lets have her on Drink Champs.
Much love on these artist .
Method man's pen game is elite and top notch. I feel he's one of those artist who can out rap anyone on a song easily.
Method Man is a fucking star! I did not know that he referenced all those songs for Method Man. The fact that his ear and skill were so advanced at that age, shows he was the Michael Jackson of the crew.
Method man sound like a true Grandpa when he was talking about his grandbaby... Salute to you big dog. 🙏🏾💪🏾
This interview is making me so happy. Method is a student of music! NORE is such a fan, in the best sense of the word!
Just simply wow. What a legend. God bless. I definitely appreciate you while you're here, champ. Thank you for everything you're doing, you've done, and you've given to me as fan. 💯
Hands down one of the best show out currently. You fellas deserve your own flowers too!
I saw Meth and Red perform once in Philly. Their energy was incredible 👏🏾 🙌🏽 ✨️
We were probably at the same show... either the Electric Factory or the Troc... everytime they come to Philly I'm there💯
@@mossberg714 Red & Mef are inseparable frfr, nothin but magic with them 💯
Meth got to live past those awkward youthful years to be a thoughtful, mature man in his 50's
Because of Suge Knight, Tupac and Biggie never got to look back as old men on their young years
Meth is such a good conversationalist, I could listen to him talk about anything for hours.
Meth is a slept on as a great. Consistency, loyalty, always comes with hard bars. He is either IN my Top 5 or my favorite 6th man. Either way, higher on my list than most lists. 💯👐🏼
Can't wait for this interview from the one and only legendary Method man.
I️ have a performance arts and directing degree and now a whole stay at home mom hearing meth speak about the craft makes me so excited again because most don’t understand .. much respect to you and the fact that you take it seriously and studied the art ❤❤❤❤❤love you !
I'm from California, but my Mom is from Queens. I was listening to Wu Tang and my friends couldnt understand it. Method has always been my favorite.
And he hit 50 and turned into the finest man. Gawd!! ❤
Meth is still one of my favorite artists to ever do it. Love to see how well he's done. NORE you the man
Loving this interview. I’m from Bmore and Method Man taught me things that I wasn’t privy to. I was doing a lot of googling as he spoke 😅 Appreciate you Meth 💐 for you my brother.
BRING ALCHEMIST HERE . ITS LONG A OVERDUE
Facts 🫡
Can’t wait

BEST INTERVIEW!!!!!! Real Talk!!!!!!! Thank youuuu💝💝💝💝💝💝
*BEST CLAN EVER*
👐 *WU-TANG FOREVER* 👐
*THANK YOU REVOLT,FOR BRINGING US THESE LEGENDS,THROUGH RUclips*
*SUPER NICE TO HEAR ALL THEM STORIES*
I have always loved Method Man. I remember stacking my after school money to buy a $500 Wu Wear leather jacket. I went to the first Summer Jam in 1993 and they almost collapsed the stage. I would carry my 36 Chambers tape on dates with me to be played in the car. Love this man and the whole Wu Tang Clan DOWN. I know every lyric to every song. Big flowers here, from the planet of Brooklyn. 💐✊🏽💛🖤
Hell yeah I saved up to buy wu wear in high school no one in texas knew who they we're fools in shcool would be like why you wearing something like that then 2 years later everyone was in wu stuff ..I carried liquid swords tape the red one everywhere if I showed up to a party you be hearing the GZA
The 2 male face cards that never decline are Method Man and Nas. 😍
Agreed!!! 😂❤😊
As a man in my mid 40's the Wu helped me be a better teen, young father and now man. Good to see the og's still holding it down and still in good shape 💪 . Meth has evolved as I and all of us have to do. I workout my mind body and soul because of my idols. Good to see they never let us down! ✌️
His explanation of M.E.T.H.O.D. Man and how he was melodically sampling/referencing his vocals was so dope I never caught any of those!
I have loved Wu since I was 13. 😂 I’m still in love with them and I’m in my 40s. Method is my favorite ever. He’s an amazing artist and it has been a joy and great pleasure watching this man grow from a boy in NY to this man in the movies, shows, songs, body building And just a well respected individual! It’s just amazing! WuTang forever! 💛🖤💛🖤👐🏽👐🏽
That's a beautiful homage to him
Luv the way meth tells stories .. they lock you in visually .. cool dude fasho 🙌🏽
💯🔥
This is great conversation from beginning to start
This show is so humble and down to earth i love it.
This was excellent episode. Meth is one of hip hop's most influential and amazing MCs of all time. His personality definitely light ups the room and gave us great stories. Salute to Meth and the rest of iconic Wu Tang crew members
holy shit. I never realized he came up with that part from the Beatles "Come Together". That shit is genius
Yeah that shocked the shit outta me
Enjoying this so far 🔥🔥
38:00
I remembered that feeling Meth talking bout, coming thru his music. His last album felt so bitter. At his album release party, he seemed angry or defeated. It was sad to see and hear.
He's always been "The Man" 💯
Transitioning is the best thing he did. He's talented af at a lot of things.
Method Man should have been on 1 of the Nas albums produced by Hit Boy. The production style would be perfect for Meth
I ran into Method Man at the mall in Myrtle Beach over 20 years ago, and I'll never forget it. I had a huge crush and was very excited to see him. He was cool and smooth just strolling thru. Didn't even know they had a show at the House of Blues that night. He wasn't giving autographs, but I was happy to get a hug and conversation. After all these years he's as fine as wine!🥰
Great interview! Love me some Method Man❤ Always have
This honestly is one of the best. Laughing and learning new shit.
I have a 20-year thumb injury from an early 2000s Red and Meth show @ the Maritime Hall in SF, Cali (shortly after "Doc's The Name" released) I was front row, and as hyped as possible to slap them both five over and over and I bent my thumb back so bad that it has never been right since. Great times, shout out Wu-Tang (forever) & the show, peace.
Big up to Method Man!💪🏿
I loved that he gave UK respect he is a great artist one of my favourites hands down.
Can you give me the time stamp of that part?
That Method Man. The coolest ever!!! And funny. I'm glad i had the pleasure of meeting oh boy. And Red Man❤
The amount of times I’m gonna watch this episode is just unreal. Love Method Man
Method such a honest and humble dude for a legend.. I really respect him giving insight! WU TANG FOREVER
I was constantly Googling stuff during this!!! Learned and refreshed myself on sooo much!
This interview felt like a conversation in my living room. I feel like Meth made Nore more comfortable during this process.
Method man really genuinely loves acting I can tell, super respectable
