Real Name: Clifford Smith
Biography: Method Man is the most popular Wu-Tang member, he was born in East Meadows Hospital, Long Island, New York. Meth's parents separated when he was born and his father, Clifford Smith Senior, was in prison. His mother Genola lived in Staten, whilst his father was still in Long Island, he spent time some time with both his parents.. Meth left home at 13, and lived with friends in Staten. This is where he met The RZA (at that time known as Prince Rakeem), and RZA's cousins, The Genius & Ol' Dirty Bastard, who together, already had a group called 'All In Together Now', which was the original Wu-Tang... Method Man joined the trio, to form the building blocks of the Wu-Tang Clan. Meth was a hit from the very beginning, Meth's solo track 'M.E.T.H.O.D. Man' was one of the most popular Hip-Hop tracks of it's time, and it was only a year later that Meth released his debut album, 'Tical'. A hit to some, but a disappointment to others, 'Tical' was quoted by Method Man as "Rushed", so it was only a matter of time before people started talking about his next album. Meth's second album is due in 1998 and it'll be called 'T2: Judgement Day'.
