Meth so good at conversations and storytelling that I think he should have his own podcast. It would be one of the best on KZread for sure.
Meth ain't lying about X. When that build up start on the intro to its dark and hell is hot you knew X was different. First time I heard X was just on a hook on harlem world and I instantly knew he was a star

The fact that Meth isn't consistently in the top 5 conversations makes him the most underrated Emcee of all time.

This is one of the best hip hop artist interviews I've watched. Meth really hits the mark, great organic interview setting. Carmelo and Mero are great at making the guest feel at ease and give them time to express and be natural.
The BEST episode EVER! Flawless energy throughout the “interview”, Meth and Melo are the chillest brothers ever. Mero’s energy and irritating laugh put the cherry on top. Dope!!
Meth needs to be studied for real. How can one person be apart of so much legendary shit, crazy.

Kobe was that structured “old head,” even though he wasn’t old. But he’d been in the game for a minute and had reached his prime. Kobe wasn’t trying to lose either.
Method Man…. Melo x Mero yall guest have been 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 already know this episode gonna be 🔥
They hit that job shit on the head. I can feel the fear when i go to a job. Baggy clothes, long hair, inner city zip code comes with questions like 'how'd you find out about this place' 'who wrote your resume'

Oh hell nah. "Who wrote your resume?"
Meth has done a loooot of movies. I remember every independent film I in the 2010’s, he popped up randomly. He’s definitely put in the work.
Method Man is hilarious. I can relate to what he said about job interviews and applying for the job. Never knew about what he said in regards to DMX.
Been a fan of Method since 93. So wonderful to see him seem so happy, healthy and continuing his success One of the most talented, hard working dudes to ever do it.
I LIKE THIS I DIDN'T KNOW CARMELO ACT HE SHOULD DO MORE ACTING SO HIS FANS CAN SEE MORE OF HIM
It was a delight to see all of them talking, vibing, and enjoying each others company.
Great conversation, Method Man is a real one 🔥
Seeing this pioneer legend “Mr Tical” telling these incredible personal stories just brought to my attention “imagine Biggie at the age of 50 sitting on that couch and rambling barbershop talk” would’ve been a legendary sight. Wow! It’s crazy to know that would never happen!!!

This was cold and comfortable. Good shit.
Random fact my mom held in in high esteem. Method man influenced me very much. With that said there was a rumor about him but it went nowhere (thank god). Now the world wants to embrace him more. He is living proof ignore ish and do you. And dont believe evrything you see or hear....salute
FAM…THIS IS THE BEST FUCKING PODCAST. I need like five years from y’all Brothers. Melo & Mero y’all Brothers gon win forever man. M-E-T-H-O-D…
First time to the channel. I really love y'all energy man. It brought back good times in my life. Very good. Very good method. Man always been the s*** keep doing what you doing
Really though, I’m from Texas. Watching 7pm, has me feeling like I’m from NY.
I saw DMX in concert 3 times throughout the years. The last one was his last concert in Philly. Every time he came out the method man described it and every time I would get the chills. There's no rap concert that has been quite like a DMX concert for me, it definitely an experience

I'm 21 minutes in n this is already the best method man interview I seen..I'm excited to see what else is discussed
Y'all keep applying pressure with the interviews. This one is top 5.
That’s a smart man there. Lot of respect for him. Gained a better understanding of him from watching this and it really resonates with me
Salute to the production team. The set is beautiful and each shot has personality. Also having the mics he that far from the person speaking while still sounding like its right in their face. I love it
As soon as I saw Method Man, and the Wire in the same sentence, I needed to watch it. Who didnt love The Wire?
He is one of the greatest. The cadence is serious
Thats like if you in Dialog with someone from Brooklyn and the conversation starts turning left and they end up Calling you "Duke"... you know shit might get real
Method Man talking comics. I can listen to it all day
Melo said the Young Lords 🇵🇷🇵🇷✊🏽
Solid interview love the in depth unapologetic answers Method Man top 5 and still alive… I swear my moms regretting taking me to cop BlackOut I blasted it on my boombox while she cussed me out bout the noise 😂
Excellent interview I love Meth but I have to say we new about Big Daddy Kane on the West Coast in the 80s I'm from Compton Cali 💯

The energy meth and melo got for each other when they referenced foreigners played with the "Yo son, Yo GOD" if they only knew what they was playing with.... 5 percenters be knowing... Peace God
This was one of the best interviews I have ever seen... Being a screenwriter/actor/producer it's great to hear about the business from Black Entertainers outside the top 1%... YO, bring Meth back!
I was the Hard Knock show in San Jose when yawl dropping down smokin our joints. U got my boys and you passed it back after to his bro. Same rotation, that's talent 😂. Great presentation real acts!
Best content and conversation of 2024 on a podcast on KZread prove me wrong

Method man needs to be the 3rd host for this show
Meth, I'm 29 and BUY ALBUMS. I was brought up by OGs and have been reciting the WU since birth. That Snoop x Method Man album will do numbers!!
