Method Man says that if you’re an artist trying to make it in the music industry…do not sign to another artist.
“I always felt like you can’t sign to somebody who still trying to be an artist. It’s hard. They can’t give you the time or attention that you probably need and deserve unless you are your own machine,” he said on Math Hoffa’s show.
On the same show, Meth talked about the time he once planned to give Joe Budden a beatdown but Budden talked his way out of it.
, “Me and Joe, after that whole sh-t happened, ’cause they disappeared. Smart. Good. You should. I would have done the same sh-t. I go to walk back toward the van like, ‘Joe, I wanna talk to you. Where you at? Okay, I’ll go over here.’ We walk over there, we go behind the van. Now Joe, you don’t know this, but the whole time you were talking,” he said.
“I was gonna snuff you. But the reason why I didn’t, in that moment, was ’cause you said some real sh-t. Now, I don’t know exactly what it was word for word and sh-t, but it was definitely something that made me think in that moment, ‘Joe’s a very smart muthaf-cka. Chess, not chequers.'”
