i feel that it must be this......cause meth is so dope as a rapper but i feel he never fully lives up to potential while redman who i personally feel is top 15 always punches above his weight
I think the other thing is, he doesn't have to do it. Meth has always been committed to the hollywood thing once he got a taste of it and Redman said on the Combat Jack show that between the two of them, he's much more serious about it and has a better understanding of it. Meth himself has said recently that he doesn't have to rap to feed his family.
During wu's initial run, he dropped his one album which was all a part of RZA's plan. RZA told them all where to sign, and determined the rotation of who was dropping and when. Then he does Tical 2000 in 98, then blackout in 99 and then another solo in 03. In between then, he's doing the hard knock life tour, how high, guest verses, two wu albums, etc. Then the tv show in 03-04, more hollywood stuff and then another album in 06 and since then it's been more wu, wu related stuff, and another blackout. So while there isn't a lot of solo stuff to his name, there is a lot of music with him on it in one way or another so I don't see it as lazy as much as it's him being pulled in different directions and not having the need to put out another album.
