they also are taught by garbage rappers today to be disrespectful to legends!! its like artist now dont want you to find dope people cuz then you wont like they new age mumble rap hahaha
Hip Hop is the only music genre out there where the newer generation of artists/fans doesn't respect the previous one, at least in the US. Meth & Red shows are always great when they perform overseas, even with the generation gap. You have people that weren't even born when How High came out attending their shows in places like Germany, France and Japan.
Honestly, this is only true of how Hip-Hop is consumed in the US. As you said, people overseas still take to our legends, but in the US it's all about the next thing. They're already saying that relatively new artists like Lil Baby, Da Baby, Roddy Rich etc. have "fallen off". If an artist goest 4 months without putting out new music then it's seen as a fall-off and there's someone else to take their slot. A total disposable culture tbh.
@@nickjones3860 Naw hip hop and rap ALWAYS BEEN LIKE THAT since the 80s ... Kool Moe Dee was the most popular MC until a younger LL Cool J came along and ppl started saying "Kool Moe Who?" It's very few hip hop fans that grow with the culture, and majority go with what's popular to listen to
THATS WHY I STILLS ROCKS WITH PEOPLE LIKES METHOD MAN.HE HAS ALL THE FAME&SUSCESS.HES STILL THE SAME MOFO THATS DONT FOLLOW HOLLYWOOD.HE STAYS HUMBLE&IN CHECK OF HIMSELF.
Method Man is a Legend, so let’s be clear, EVERYONE KNOWS MET, please regret what, we start and stand on Respect the kings that came before you and paved the way, period. METHOD Man music is legendary!
Meth made a real good point with the generation gap statement. That’s how I’ve been feeling for years with these mixed eras shows and festivals. Luckily there’s still a huge “old school” following all around the world
I love Method's grown man answers. He's right. We live in a different time. Things have definitely changed and not for the better. Ijs He spoke the real.
The issue aint that Meth and Red are too old, it's that black culture doesn't do Legends. Rock and white music has all sorts of old heroes who still perform. Black culture, which is run by other people, is reduced to current trends which They dictate. Then our children, as well as white kids, see older black recording artists as "played out". Whether you like Wu Tang or not, recognize this as a weakness in our community. That Hot 97 stuff is Vulturism personified!!!
Method Man has had a long and successful career. Every ride comes to an end. New artist , and new fans come along. It doesn’t matter how big you are! Taste in music change.
this generation are just dumb I remember growing up listening to alot of older music & i kept the interest throughout my entire life. Not liking music just because it older than you is idiotic if you ask me.
@@gardenstatebosssame bro. It’s not about old or young its definitely this generation only because growing up I loved and listened to music that was a lot older than me
I was just playing "I Get My Thang In Action" among ALL generations who knows that record? lol 🔥🔥🔥 u never know when the resurgance is gonna happen Mr. Meth! Respect
No issue at all with what Meth said. He wasn't disparaging anyone. He simply said his time in the spotlight as a rapper with Gen Z and younger generations is most likely done. The 20 somethings of today don't rock with Meth and Redman the way Gen X and Millennials do. It happens and it's all good.
@@jaahnnn He wasn't trying to do sh*t. He said what he said, but these puppies are so fragile that they get offended when the wind blows in their faces.
I would never go to another summer jazz, he's right things are not the same anymore and yes there is a age Gap it's time for the new generation of music
Now what about listening too some John Coltrane or miles Davis on a rainy day with a coffee nestled inside cozy and warm. It’s not just the music that is hip it’s the clothing as well . They are very sharp and hip . ☝🏻If we go back too the origins of “‘Hipness” we need look no further than the Art Deco jazz period, where Hipness was first spawned. This even predates the best nicks of the 1950’s ,where most people mistakenly believe Hipness originated. ☝🏻No no “Hipness “ actually originated in our grandparents generation, eons ago , much like the primordial soup that helped create life on this planet. Now this was the period of witch the American “Negro” was at he culture pincial hight in both hight class and refinement.
HipHop has officially entered the multi generational period where u will now see people now not relating to certain hiphop from certain eras. who goes to a smokie robinson show versus who goes to see Chrisbrown or Keith sweat, that gap will now show for Hiphop, its that time now
Look, as grown folks, we have to understand a few things about ageism. Look, ageism, age gaps, whatever you wanna call it is inevitable. It happens to every single artist in the world. Throughout history, music has always ran in eras and trends. Record labels (who call the shots) _cain't_ just have Big Daddy Kane as the premier artist for a consecutive 40 years. The music industry has to keep things fresh and new for generations to come. Look at history. It happens to ALL artists. Granted, some '90s artists may think they're still young and poppin', but the truth is, everybody gets older and aged out. I know it sucks, but that's just the truth. What's the demo for Summer Jam? Them kids ain't tryna hear no Method Man and Redman, especially rapping the way they do. This new generation simply does not resonate w/ that kinda content. Wordsmith, New York sound... baby, get over it. Like, let it go. We can make the argument about rock bands still being able to tour until they turn 80, but the practical reality is that in Hip-Hop, we (minus me) discard our legends. That's just the truth. Until something changes, it's gon stay this way. We'll revere the shit outta Eminem, but call Nasir old and irrelevant. WE (minus me) do that to our legends. And guess what? I don't see it changing no time soon. But yeah man, this ageism thing happens to ALL artists so I don't want my favorite artists to feel bad about it. Look at yo' history. Big Daddy Kane and them ruled the late '80s. Soon as the '90s came around, they were phased out. I do not expect to see Positive K at Summer Jam and them kids going crazy for him. Well, perhaps that was a bad and random example, but I'm sure y'all can kinda catch my drift.😜 17 - 25 years old's ain't tryna hear no Method Man and Redman, respectfully, of course. 17 - 25 year old's, overall, do not like that style of Hip-Hop. I'd a take a page outta Onyx book and go overseas. Overseas marketplaces, especially Europe, do not trip about yo' age, relevancy, nothing. They focus strictly on the music. AND they love merch. Onxy merch sells out as soon as they post it.
People who buy tickets to rap concerts def in they 20s and you haven’t had a current rotating hit for relevancy. You would have better luck with a tour for your fans vs a variety of of acts in 2024. Most the current kids buying tickets parents have to remind them who you are along with other legends from the 90s
My theory, it wasn’t the age gap.. No.. Method Man solo is timeless, Redman Solo is timeless.. When they made them songs together.. They was parody, and what was funny then ain’t funny now… Method do The Pain, or Tical.. Anywhere I don’t care what country the roof gone come off.. They got every ounce of juice out of that How High era..
Redman and Meth need to come to the West Coast....theres alot of ppl still down with old school hiphop......the younger generation dont know good hiphop.....i wud pay to see them in Concert real quick...ppl there age can still get down....

This didn’t happen until around 2010-2015.
It's just a generation gap. Majority of Meth fanbase are in their 40s and 50s

Why didn't you go to the concert if you love him why do you gen xers and millennials bash us for not knowing y'all favorite artists?
He didn’t need to clarify his comments. We knew what he meant 😅
This new generation can't take away greatness they're not familiar with.
I love method man for this he is right I use to go to concert dance yell scream I grew up when there were real stars 90s was the best ❤
He would get so much hype if he did some shows in Europe. It's just so rare to have old school rappers here.
Facts!!… Red & Meth Legends in NYC/ Jersey hip hop!!…sad!!… toooo much divide btween young & old!!… good music is timeless!!.. ageless!!..

it sucks cuz I love method man and Wu! I guess he just needs to stay relevant and drop more bangerz.
It just reassures you what he meant and he's right.That's exactly the way you handle that
