    I hope it's dope. I haven't liked a ? album outside of Tical, his other albums had its moments but they weren't consistent enough imo.

    This. Will listen before thinking about buying just cause his last couple projects are covered in dust at the moment, just cant get myself to pick them up.

    This ain't the 90s no more i ain't checkin for this
    Nahh ? need to be an a&r his time has come & passed ain't none of these ? checkin for a ? album

    the ? are you talking about? this is why hip hop fans suck. the ? does it not being the 90s matter and little pimple faced teens not checking for ? right now means he should stop? Dude still wants to make music and has a fanbase that been bugging him for the past few years to release something. Ill never understand why this genre is so damn quick to throw away their veterans...Its disgusting

    Been asking myself the same questions for yeaaaaars!

    Its sad, too many young Black people think its cool to be stupid/ignorant about hip hop history...but as someone already mentioned white kids dont ? on Rock legends, smmh

    I really want this album to be dope, but it always seems like his choice of production holds his albums back from being great.

    ? and wu fan since way back but its true, i dont expect a lot from it. The track record of great solo work just isnt there.


    Hopefully they limit the amount of tracks on there and just play to his strengths, all the other solos other than Tical were crammed with tracks and skits.. and they were all much much weaker

    We had the opportunity to speak at length with Method Man to discuss his forthcoming new album, The ? Lab, and more. The veteran MC had a lot on his mind and did not hesitate to touch on several issues with candor and depth. In addition to talking about his new music, ? delved into how he's maintained his razor sharp flow for more than two decades, his complicated relationship with the media over the years, the role of seasoned MCs in Hip-Hop, predatory practices of the music business, the continued support he receives from his Wu-Tang Clan bretheren and more. Also, while he spoke with plenty of "colorful metaphors" during the interview, he also revealed he has not uttered a curse word on a song since 2010's Wu Massacre album.

    This was not a surface level interview. When Method Man spoke on a subject, he went there. Whether he was talking about Jay Z and MF DOOM as being lyrical peers in the same class or how an unjust practice regarding sampling robbed him of his publishing on his biggest hit, he gave the real and raw. No matter how much you know about the venerable MC, you will learn something.

    The first solo-based project in more than five years, legions of fans are eager to the analyze the product coming out of The ? Lab. Coming August 21 via Tommy Boy Entertainment, Method Man says he loves writing rhymes again, for the very same reasons he started more 25 years ago—so they can be appreciated.
