Oh man you guys just have to watch Luke Cage!
There's a scene where Method Man makes a cameo, playing himself, and it's not cheesy. Luke saves him and Meth's like "It's you!" And Luke says, "no, it's YOU. "P.L.O. Style was my joint back in the day!"
Hah!
Very cool for a fan of both Wu-Tang and Marvel comics. In fact the whole series makes nods to hip hop of all varieties, from Sugarhill Gang to A$AP Rocky and Nicki Minaj. And Ghostface's 12 Reasons to Die is featured more than once in the soundtrack. I think the score writers even took a big cue from GFK and Adrian in composing the incidental music throughout the show.
Good shit. Especially in this era of police shootings. It's nice to see a bulletproof black man who looks like Kanye on steroids kick ass all over Harlem.
EDIT: Okay, so he raps later and it gets a little corny. But still... pretty awesome.
