Rumor has it that the new Method Man album 'Tical O: The Prequel' scheduled to be released is not the album Method Man wanted released. According to our sources, Method Man wanted the version released which contained at least 10 songs produced by The RZA.

In the last two years The RZA has recorded over 20 songs for Method Man's new album slated for a May 2004 release. Furthermore, the recording contract between Method Man/The RZA and the Island Def Jam Group clearly states that The RZA has the right to fully produce every follow up Method Man album if the previous album sells over 500.000 copies, something Method Man has done with every solo and group release.

The RZA has made it clear he has no intentions to file a lawsuit against anybody.
