Method Man has come under scrutiny after model Jayden Steele detailed an alleged altercation that happened between the two back in the 1990s.
Taking to her TikTok on Monday (December 18), Steele shared a story of abuse from a “very large rapper in the ’90s who’s actually now an actor” and broke down why she wasn’t able to get justice at the time.
“Good day all. You guys wanna know the reason why all these people are coming forward now telling their stories and they didn’t do it in the past?” she began. “Well, being a model for over 12 years and being in this industry, I was physically attacked by a very large rapper in the ’90s who’s actually now an actor right now today.
“This man attacked me, I defended myself,” she added. “10 squad cars were called to the hotel ’cause we tore that bitch up. 10 squad cars were called – there wasn’t one police report written about the incident. I had five officers come up to my room and take a statement. Not one police report was written.”
Steele continued: “I worked for attorneys at that time in New York, and because my attorneys represented the head of the record label he was on, they told me to pick my battles. You wanna know why? That’s why.”
While she didn’t name names in the clip, a commenter asked flat out if it was Method Man, to which Steele simply replied, “Yes.”
Method Man has yet to respond to the allegations. HipHopDX has reached out to his team for comment.

The allegation arrives amid multiple lawsuits and accusations against popular Hip Hop figures as of late, stemming from incidents many years back.
Cassie seemingly opened the door with her lawsuit against ex-boyfriend Diddy in November, accusing him of sexual assault, trafficking and other forms of abuse. The pair ended up settling less than 24 hours later.
Since then, multiple women have have filed lawsuits against Diddy alleging similar abuse, while Jamie Foxx, former Bad Boy President Harve Pierre, Interscope founder Jimmy Iovine and more have also been accused of assault.
After being accused of gang-raping a teen in another lawsuit earlier this month, Diddy broke his silence and took to Instagram to defend himself from the serious allegations being levied against him and he’s maintaining his complete innocence.
“ENOUGH IS ENOUGH,” he wrote. “For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation and my legacy.”
Diddy continued to accuse the alleged victims of looking for a “quick payday” and he is pleading with fans that he hasn’t done “any of the awful things being alleged.”
“Sickening allegations have been made against me by individuals looking for a quick payday,” he testified. “Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family and for the truth.”
No the reason they telling all these stories is because they smell money and a chance to be famous again. If you request a police report, you get a case number thats their job. As far as the lawyers talking about “pick your battles” they basically saying there was no evidence. Probally no bruises, and definitely no camera phone videos or incriminating voicemails. Its not what you know, its what you can prove in a court of law. Its also funny how she uses the word “attack” what does that mean ? Can you be more specific ? I can literally “attack” you without making physical contact using a leaf blower or a supersoaker.
So says the R. Kelly pedophile sympathizer. Eat a loaded shotgun for christmas please
C!LL!N you sound like a fucking simp. You just gonna believe anything a woman says with zero evidence just cuz she got a fucking pussy. Explain why #meeroo only comes after celebrities and rich men. When was the last time an older woman has opened up about a guy who mops floors for a living ? Oh he did this or that 25 years ago…..how about a homeless person ? Oh thats the guy, I remember him he rayped me back in high school. It wont happen. They only care about “justice” when theres money involved.
What a stupid sexist thing to say. Nobody’s saying that they just automatically believe her, but the fact is, a lot of men in both the movie and music business did get away with some messed-up shit back then. Let’s be real about that. What’s she’s alledging is that someone possibly paid someone else off to bury her accusation, and that’s why there was never a police report on it. Given that she’s very specific about when and where this happened, she might not be making this up.
It’s easy to make an unfounded allegation now. Your guilty until proven innocent these days. Someone did something in 1992 but I can’t really prove it. But I will go online do a little video and make a statement. Most don’t even go to the police.
B!tch, please. After 30 years, she should have been moved on from that L.
A black man being violent? What a big surprise. Actually, nobody is surprised. This is how they all behave. This statement was written on behalf of entire asian community.
Wow. U are a total piece of shit. Speaking for the entire black community. Oh, tell your mother I’ll be by at 5 for dim sum and she’ll get dick at 6.
