In a fun reveal on The Masked Singer, rap legend Method Man was unveiled as the energetic Stud Muffin, bringing his signature flair to the FOX competition. The Wu-Tang Clan star delivered a dynamic performance of Bell Biv DeVoe’s 1990 hit “Poison,” complete with smooth dance moves that energized the audience.
Right out of the gate, Stud Muffin’s clue package hinted at a storied career in hip-hop, leading some panelists to suspect Method Man’s involvement. Judge Rita Ora, who had previously guessed his identity, couldn’t contain her excitement when the mask came off.
“I knew it was you! Your voice is so distinct—and you moved like a pro!” Ora exclaimed as the crowd cheered.
While reflecting on his time as Stud Muffin, Method Man shared his enthusiasm for the unique challenge.
“I had fun with it,” the 54-year-old artist said. “I’m always down to do something unexpected, and The Masked Singer let me just go out there and play. That’s what it’s about.”
Method Man’s appearance marks another memorable moment for the show, proving that hip-hop’s biggest stars can thrive in any setting.
