As Method Man approaches the 20th anniversary of his solo debut this November, the Wu-Tang Clan emcee explained the years-long delay of an album tentatively titled Crystal Meth in an interview with HipHopDX.
“Can’t get RZA on board for some reason,” he says in a clip that debuted in today’s DX Daily (October 13). “I’m trying ya’ll. I’ve been speaking to him for the past three, four years. I’ma give it to you raw, I been saying, ‘Fuck with me. Fuck with me RZA.’ Telling other people, ‘Tell RZA to fuck with me.’ Fuck with me RZA. But he’s a busy man. And I’m proud of him. Oh my God, he took it way further than I could have ever dream of. He’s like a fucking inspiration, real talk. Real shit. He should just get back in the studio with me one more time, that’s all. Just one more time.”
Method Man’s 1994 platinum-certified debut Tical was produced almost exclusively by RZA. The Staten Island emcee’s last solo album, 4:21… The Day After, was released in 2006.

Meth want them hits!
Damn I was in high school when I bought that last method man album. I cant believe it’s been that long. Dude is lazy as hell.
still kills those guest features though
I wuldnt say lazy.
Meth is the farthest thing from lazy he does shows every night with redman or wu or solo. Clearly uvee never seen him live hes by far one of the best performers in hip hip really in music period, quit sleeping, just cuz he hast dropped since 06 doesnt make him lazy he consistently drops ill verses on other projects, like he said its on rza, rza turning into dre for real come on son
Mef, Scoop Up Tru Master & 4th Disciple!
PLEASE!!
Bronze Nazareth Got Heat Too!
So Does Mathematics!
Nice list, although Tru Master may be locked up.
if there’s one thing man must realize in life, its to never wait on another man to achieve his aims. People are inherently self-serving.
true, but i think he obviously wants RZA for this so he kinda has to!
Can he explain the delay of the Meth Lab mix tape that was supposed to drop like 7 months ago too?
pathetic. Meth one of the most taltented dudes in rap with weakest catalog, relatively speaking. A damn shame.
On the real FUCK Rza , it’s been fucking years since meth out something out, especially produced by Rza, meth is a legend already put a fucking album out for the dude you retard, stop working on shitty fucking movies NAND work on what got you here ass fuck
4:21 The Day After was a nice album.
I’m no music artist, but it seriously can’t take that long for album to make. There are other potent producers besides the RZA.
Either way, I’ll listen to anything Method puts out. Always enjoyed his work, even if I don’t think the finish products are always all that.
What nobody wants to say is that Rza doesn’t know how to make beats any more. He either lost his ear for it, or he doesn’t have the ghost-producers in the lab with him any more. I’ve always been a huge Wu fan, but I gotta call it like I see it man. What has Rza put out that was any good in the past 10 years? All the shit he’s done for these movies is cheesy and terrible, and people act like it has some kind of abstract brilliance in it because he made it, but if it was some dude you didn’t know and he showed you those beats, you say “What is this trash?” I don’t think it’s any coincidence that when 4th Disciple and True Masta disappeared so did the quality in Rza’s beats. He’s on some Dre shit where he knows he’s out of ammo so he’s trying to protect his legacy by not putting out any work, I hope like a mothafucka that he proves otherwise, but I don’t think it’s gonna happen scrap
thats a bit of a reach, if thats really how u feel thats u, i disagree. His soundtrack work is dope but its not on a level with wu tangs albums i wouldnt really compare them its a whole different world.
He wants Rza to fuck him? lol
crystal meth the new detox…
RZA is busy now with FOX’s Gang-Related show. lol
rza production would kill it
but i dont thnk he needs rza
i dont mind waiting but i want the mixtape i was promised
method always has dope songs but his albums have wack shit on them as well that ticall 2000? album was fucking ass juice beats were a mess
tical 2000 is fkin classic album
Method Man has always been the most talented emcee in Wu Tang .. Rza should be begging to work with him.
I think just blaze should do it, him and who else help with the blackout album.
Who Eva wrote Rza should be begging yous a dumb CUNT
