In 1993, the world met the Wu-Tang Clan and they have been hooked ever since. Method Man quickly became the most-popular rapper in the outfit. Over the past ten years, Wu-Tang rappers have been involved in many other activites, aside from rap.

Many Wu-Tang rappers are filming movies, and working on other projects. When Wu-Tang has live performances, it is rare for the entire crew to be present. Method Man said this is because of their other ventures, such as RZA shooting a movie and missed the crew's European tour.

Method Man also discussed his 2002 collaboration with Dr. Dre. It was a track in which Meth said Dr. Dre must have not really been feeling. Dr. Dre is different when he is in the studio, says Meth, he said Dr. Dre wants everyone to be ready to record. Xzibit came in, ready to record and Method Man admitted he was a little wasted.

Still, Method Man says he would jump at the chance to work with Dr. Dre again.

In the eyes of many, "planking" is hilarious, and in the eyes of others, "planking" is stupid and direspectful. "Planking" has been around for years, but it was not recreational. When slaves were transported on the ships, they were forced to lay that way for days at the time.

Xzibit has noticed the "planking" trend and said it is the stupidest shit he has ever seen. X went on to inform people it is not cool or funny. Because "planking" was a way to fit the maximum amount of slaves on the slave ships, he is not a fan of "planking" at all.
