nikka blacked the fukk out on that shyt:

(M) I blaze yo britches, P.L.O. extortion, you forcin
The hand that rocks the cradle, caution before you enter
This Shaolin representer, carry thirty-six deadly shyts
You fukkin with, top contenders
Official to the bone gristle
It don't matter if you bust rhymes or bust pistols
Remember me, burn a nikka to a third degree
Don't act familiar motherfukkers you ain't heard of me
Just peep the stee and the rap how it's supposed to be
Tap the pockets bag the goods like a grocery, we food-shoppin
On top of that we hip-hoppin, and don't stoppin
Out-of-state drawers-droppin, the panty-raiders
Slide on ya like gators, umped that stank bytch back out
And then played her, but that ain't nothin
Crossin this dog walkin, native New York and
Shaolin slang talkin, rap nikka
Mr. Freeze crowd shiver
What? Young, black, and don't give a fukk
If the next crew get the scissor...

(Extortion, extortion, give that up kid, extortion)

Bottom line, what the fukk you wanna do
You eyin me, at the same time I'm eyin you, punk
Wanna pop the most junk
Be the same motherfukker with the most lumps
Chew on that shyt
Punk fakkit (word up)
Burn his ass like a book of matches
[Yeah, that's just about it]
Under pressure like fat bytches... Annotate

Straight from the brain I'll be givin you the pain, anger
Comin from the 36th Chamber, BANG!
Tical, hittin with the Buddha-Fist style
Shotgun slammin in your chestpiece, plow!
FRAME!, is blown all over the terrain
Like a man without no arms you can't hang

His verse on "Extortion" is epic, but I think his verse on "Evil Streets Remix" with Onyx comes pretty close, if not better...

i agree with who said box in hand*. that track in particular... it never really gets talked about as top wu songs... but it stands out so much to me just the whole aura of it. the extortion verse was close though. something about that track its not really serious and its kind of fun or light hearted in a way as far as the mood yet it still had such a evil aura. method man came off so effortless on such a evil sounding song it multiplied the effect the way the two kind of offset each other so much. the beat made method man sound more evil and yet he made the track itself sound more fun its crazy how all of that comes together on his verse

*nvm the other version "do or die, it be i... metaphysical man" with the lady screaming in the background

Definitely not his best.

I remember him sayin' on Complex, that that was one of his verses that he just half-assed. He was speakin' on how he got lazy with his rhymes at one point, because he knew people would still keep callin' him for work. That's my favorite joint from that album.

Damn, I came in agreeing with the title. Then as I read through the thread y'all reminded me of some fire by Meth. Now I can't decide...Looks like I'll be bumping Wu/Method Man this weekend.
