It had to happen.  In late August Method Man released his highly anticipatednew collaborative project, The Meth Lab. Today Method Man, the celebrated rapper and pop-culture icon has dropped the official music video for his gritty, old school street anthem “The Purple Tape,” teaming up with fellow Wu-Tang Clan members Raekwon and Inspectah Deck for this collaborative effort. Also joining the stand-out track is Method’s son, Rae Butta aka Raekwon, who lays down the chorus to the record reinforcing Ol Dirty Bastard’s bold declaration,  “Wu-Tang is for the children.” The video for the J57 produced record isn’t an attack, but a warning – solidifying that after three decades these legendary Staten Island emcees are still on top with legions of Wu-heads behind them.
