Method Man Learns 'Tax Collectors Rule Everything Around Me'

2009_03_methodman.jpg Method Man woke up one morning this past week to discover that his 2008 Lincoln Navigator had been repossessed by the state Department of Taxation. Officials picked up the SUV from the rapper's Staten Island home Wenesday morning at 6 a.m. It wasn't the first time that authorities crossed paths with one of Meth's vehicles. A Lincoln Navigator of his was pulled over in 2007 for an expired tag and police encountered a cloud of marijuana smoke enough "to choke a horse" when Method Man emerged from the descending driver's side window. There is no indication that marijuana was involved with the repossession—the How High star simply forgot to pay over $52,000 in personal income taxes.

method man used to be my hero until he started doing mountain dew commercials and started acting. Only ghostface killah and Rza are left. RIP ODB

As a musician, Method Man is so talented. So good.

He's now eligible to run for congress or be put into a cabinet position.

"police encountered a cloud of marijuana smoke enough "to choke a horse" when Method Man emerged from the descending driver's side window."

Really? He just climbed out through the SUV's window? Weird! He must have been stoned.

"the How High star simply forgot to pay over $52,000 in personal income taxes."

Pot is a hell of a drug.
