It seems that since Rakim bounced from Aftermath last week, rap fans have been in a tizzy spreading rumors of the next artist to make a power move. Word on the street is that controversial rap duo, dead prez, is going to The Roc. Picture the "let's get free" emcees doing a 360 to push Armadale and ice. And Lloyd Banks is rumored to be leaving G-Unit after a fight broke out between him and 50 in Cleveland. But the rumor of all rumors swirling around the net this week is of Meth leaving Wu-Tang. Message boards are buzzing about how The Wu allegedly had a meeting last week that ended in a huge fight with Method Man severing his ties from the group. The outrageous tale continues, saying both Meth and the Wu have released dis songs to radio (which no person can verify they've heard for themselves)
However, contrary to reports posted on various websites, Wu-Tang member Method Man is not leaving the clan.
Reports circulated that Method Man appeared on Funkmaster Flex's Hot 97 show recently, allegedly dissing his Wu bretheren and that the Clan struck back on Power 105.1.
Mark Breezy, who handles A&R duties for Method Man said that the rapper has been in Los Angeles for over a month shooting "Soul Plane," a soon to be released comedy similiar to the classic, "Airplane."
"Meth would never air any dirty laundry on the radio," Breezy told AllHipHop.com. "We also just did 'Ice Cream II' for Raekwon's upcoming album and finishing a joint called "baby C'mon" for new Meth's album."
Ol Dirty, Raekwon, Ghostface and RZA will all be featured on Method Man's next album.
