Verzuz: Redman vs Method Man

How high, real high!

In celebration of 4/20, Verzuz brought Redman and Method Man into rotation for their latest rap soundclash.

With thousands of hip hop fans and stoners tuning in, the two frequent collaborators brought their gritty and humorous chemistry on stage for a live performance in front of a small crowd.

Assisted by DJ Scratch on the turntables, the Funk Doc and the Iron Lung ran through their epic collaborations (“Da Rockwilder”, “How High”), early bangers (“Time 4 Sum Aksion”, “Method Man”), classic hits (“Whatever Man”, “All I Need”), and endless gems (“Da Goodness”, “Release Yo’Delf”, “I’ll Bee Dat”, “What The Blood Clot”)

Reggie Noble and Johnny Blaze even brought the deep cuts (“Big Dogs”, “Cereal Killer”), lady anthems (“Soopaman Luva 3”, “Break Ups 2 Make Ups”), guest verses with B.I.G. and ‘Pac (“The What”, “Got My Mind Made Up”), and so much more.

Guest performances included a Def Squad and Hit Squad reunion with EPMD (“Headbanger”), Keith Murray (“Get Lifted”), K-Solo (“It’s Like That”), a “Triumph” performance by Wu-Tang’s Inspectah Deck and Cappadonna, and a rare appearance by DJ Kool who performed “Let Me Clear My Throat”.

The RZA joined Deck and Meth for “Wu-Tang Clan Ain’t Nuthing Ta Fuck Wit” and announced his upcoming album with DJ Scratch. The Lords Of The Underground’s Dupre “DoItAll” Kelly also came by to perform “Funky Child” before plugging Newark’s non-profit 211 Community Impact and announcing his run for West Ward councilman.

Red and Meth, who celebrated justice for George Floyd, paid tribute to Phife Dawg by performing “Nushell Pt. 2” and ran through “4, 3, 2, 1” and “Grand Finale” in honor of DMX. They also announced their forthcoming Blackout 3 album, Redman’s upcoming solo LP, Muddy Waters 2, and premiered Redman’s new “80 Barz” video following the show.

Redman vs Method Man follows the epic The Isley Brothers vs Earth, Wind & Fire from Easter Sunday and ahead of Verzuz‘ SWV vs Xscape on May 8.
