Method Man Shares "The Purple Tape" Lyric Video feat. Raekwon & Inspectah Deck

Method Man f. Raekwon & Inspectah Deck - "The Purple Tape" [Lyric Video]

It's always a good day at HQ when we're graced with some new sounds or sights from the mighty Method Man. Today he's gifted us the NYC-repping lyric video for The Meth Lab standout "The Purple Tape" which obviously borrows its name from Raekwon's classic solo debut Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, but that's just fine, as the Chef himself graces the cut alongside fellow Wu alum Inspectah Deck. The clip captures sweeping shots of Manhattan's silhouette as the bars bleed out onto the screen, making sure that you hear and know each and every syllable to each and every blazing bar that's delivered. So consider this your companion script to a heater whose lyrical density stacks up to some of the greats. If you've yet to indulge in the rugged and raw delight of Method Man's The Meth Lab LPwe encourage you to hit iTunes at your earliest convenience. If you need a little nudge, just click play. You'll know what to do.
