Method Man Questions New Age Rappers’ Status
Rap Legend Method Man did an interview with battle rapper Math Hoffa. The interview started making the rounds because Method Man questions how the new rappers are making so much bread.
“Nowadays, these kids have way more money than I ever had. I can’t believe it. I haven’t even taken private jets yet, and I feel like I deserve it! I wonder where they’re getting all this money from. Did they get some crazy deal or something?”
He said, “There’s no way they’re flying private – that money is long as hell because we’re talking at least 30 grand for a round trip. Where are they getting all this money from? Can someone tell me? I wanna know their hustle.”
Hoffa Claims That They’re Simply Flexing
When Hoffa says they are probably just renting the private jets, Meth replies, “I didn’t say they buyin’ em. They’re paying for the private jet all the time, but I used to complain about saving half my check for car fare when I worked at the Statue – just $1.75. They spend at least 30 to 50 grand per trip. Where are they getting all this money and still paying the mortgage? Migos probably get around 100 grand each or something like that.
Hoffa then points out there are several different revenues for making money these days, including streams, shows and features.
Method Man Doubles Down on His Questions
But Meth is still baffled by it, saying, “Where is all this coming from? Can’t see it. Not many people really listen to your music like that. Where’d you get all this money? I just wanna know. It’s mind-boggling. Every penny I got, I know where it came from, the process to get it. I still don’t live like Rockefeller, not saying I can’t, but I don’t. Where do you get all these resources, man?”
Method Man mentioned that he’s comfortable. However, heisn’t dropping $200,000 on a Maybach to give as a wedding gift like Travis Scott or spending millions on a forehead piercing à la Lil Uzi Vert.
Impending Verzuz Battle
Instead, he’s gearing up for a Verzuz battle with his longtime partner-in-rhyme Redman on April 20, the international weed smokers’ holiday.
