Lyrically, he stepped his game up on Tical 2000. Production wise Tical is better. But I feel where you coming from. Tical 2000 in retrospect won't a bad album at all.
to this day i dont really mess with Tical too heavy at all. it just never hit to me like a lot of the other wu albums. always liked tical 2000 more for some reason. didnt prefer 8000 skits though.

I hear you. Tical is good but it's rather boring compared to all the other 1st wu solo albums of the 90's, except Deck's.

And I feel on all them skits for Tical 2000. lol

What's crazy is Meth, if he handled his career right and didn't fukk up those solos, could've been the biggest rapper of all-time.



Method Man was bigger than DMX, Jay-Z, Ja Rule...etc. when this song was out. The only artist bigger was LL Cool J.

I always got the feeling that mainstream was pulling him to be a mega star but he didnt do his part thats why his career seems underwhelming.

He was in Martin too around this time.

It's crazy to think how Method Man in the 90s was on the same tier as Pac, Big, and Snoop. His sound just didn't translate well post 2000.

I'm not quite sure what he was going for musically by then. He wasn't quite as animated as some of his frequent collaborators (Redman, Busta). He wasn't as lyrical as Nas or Ghostface. He wasn't walking the balance between the streets and pop charts like Jay, 50, Ja Rule, etc.

By the 2000s Method Man was just...there.

bingo. its really inexplicable

i stand by my argument that Method Man & Redman ruined eachother....great duo but overall the second they met both of their careers ended and could not reach their potentials.
