In 2022, Method Man used his time on Math Hoffa’s barbershop conversation series My Expert Opinion to shout out Roc Marciano, who he believes to be severely underrated.

“Roc is a genius whether people know it or not,” Meth said looking directly into the camera. “You wanna talk about underrated and all that shit. No,no, no, I’m not underrated. I’ve made my bones and there’s people out there…Roc Marciano under fucking rated. Like a motherfucker, man. It be n-ggas like that that I wanna see hit big and be like you know running the fucking culture. You know, follow that shit, and he from Hempstead.”
