Right from the beginning, Method Man stood out from his
fellow Clansmen. Though he wasn’t the
most skilled lyricist, he clearly possessed the ever elusive “it” factor that separates
mere celebrities from true superstars.
Strangely, his genius only seemed to manifest itself when contrasted
against another flamboyant personality, be it Redman or Mary J Blige. In keeping with the very low key resurgence
that the clan has been experiencing over the past couple of years, Mr. Meth has
been trying to show fans that he can still conjure up a bit of that old shaolin
magic. As the new spokesman for Sour
Patch Kids candy, he performs an amusing parlor trick that ultimately proves to
be bittersweet.
