Go ahead. Read the headline again. I wouldn't have believed it either. Method Man appears in this music video serving as the announcement of a videogame based on the candy brand Sour Patch Kids which will be published by Capcom. Yes, that Method Man, those Sour Patch Kids.
No footage of the game, bound for Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network and PC this spring appears. It's just Method hanging in his crib or something while Sour Patch Kids run around and wreak havoc. From what Capcom has revealed, the game itself sounds like a platformer, with jumping and puzzle-solving.
In defense of the Meth, he did tell us he was going to bring the pain. I just didn't think this was what he meant.

Patty cake patty cake hey, THE METHOD MAN. AND I DON'T EAT GREEN EGGS AND HAM!
This man has went from Wu, to How High, to My Baby's Daddy, to this: and he still keeps that Wu charm. In the words of Ol' Dirty: dudduh dudduh dudduhh.
Why youze be hatin on there be Magno, You ain't got no fish dogg I get that, but don't be sour'en hour cheddar with yo baked potato pie. Dis respektin ain't what the Toid needs, nah mean?
I love how Mef (BTW that's how you abbreviate his name Conrad, I should know, my cat is named Mef after him, the other is named Doc after Redman) doesn't lose his swagger even while advertising sour candies. That song was much better than I expected, the video is funny too. I'm convinced Mef can do no wrong.
First I'd rather see a Sour Patch Kids movie directed by Method Man. Then Capcom can make a game based on the candy. Then a new Sour Patch Kids candy could be made based on the Capcom game based on the candy. Tasty.
"I don't want to see black people get shot. I just want to see people who talk like that get shot."
"No, man, I don't hate Muslims. Muhammad is just a fucking retarded name and turbans look gay."
"I'm not a homophobe, I just hate when guys have sex with other guys. What's up with that shit?"
And yeah, seriously, stop saying "ghetto jive." If you're going to be racist, at least be 21st century-racist. This isn't the 70s.
Also, "while your... behind in education" wins for delicious irony. You really shouldn't be ridiculing anyone on intelligence/education/deep thought.
It's pretty pathetic that it's the personal mandate of some childish nerd to insult anyone who listens to a genre of music that differs from his taste. (He secretly listens to Nickleback)

Hopefully it will be like that Cool Spot 7-up game.

Dude, you don't do that. You now have the entirety of New York wanting your head. Especially Staten Island.
OUT FROM THE 36 CHAMBAAAAAAAAAAS! ITS THE GOOCH!
Why can't I get excited about this?
Dude, watch The Wire. Even your racist ass can't hate that show, and plus there's plenty of those black people you hate getting shot.
You know who got the fattest asses AND the best pussy? Midgets, nigga.

What a poser.
Obvious troll is obvious. Seriously, you need a bit more subtlety and better timing in your trolling.
You are trying too hard.
