Method Man Shares New Cut "Lifestyles" Off His Upcoming 'The Meth Lab' LP

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

We're only seven short days away from the release of Method Man's upcoming LP The Meth Lab, and now the Wu-Tang Clan legend has shared its second official single, "Lifestyles." The track, a smooth and true-to-form offering that's immediately recognizable as grade A Meth, features assistance from featured artists Cardi, Eazy Get Rite and Freaky Marciano. The track premiered earlier Friday at Billboard, who highlighted its lyrical commitment to loyalty and stickwithitness in the hip-hop game.

It was only a week ago that we were rocking out to the first Lab single "The Purple Tape," which featured Method Man's Clansmates Raekwon and Inspectah Deck rocking the mic in support. Now, listened back to back, the tracks make it clear that we have nothing but great things to expect from The Meth Lab. Next Friday can't come soon enough.

Method Man's new LP is out Friday, August 21st. You can pre-order it via Bandcamp here, and as you do so listen to "Lifestyles" below.
