AGE 33 MUSTWORTHINESS The Wu-Tang Clan's most charismatic killer
bee is comfortable in any medium. This year, the 1995 Grammy
winner went from kicking around (literally) in videogames to
copiloting the film ''Soul Plane'' to dropping his third solo album,
''Tical O: The Prequel.'' Now he and fellow hip-hopper Redman are
taping their Fox sitcom, ''Method & Red,'' about two knucklehead
rappers movin' on up to an affluent suburban neighborhood in New
Jersey. ABOUT THAT OLD HOOD ''I'm about 15 minutes away. I'm still
in Staten Island. Redman lives in my old hood, though. He's crazy
as hell.'' ON HIS MUST LIST Eric Bana. ''That dude is dope in
everything he f---in' does, from ''Chopper'' all the way to ''Troy.'' I
didn't really dig the movie, [but] the fight scene between him
and Brad Pitt? Classic.'' NEXT More acting. ''It's going to be a
big feature that I can't wait to tell you about if I get the damn
part.'' In the meantime, ''Method & Red'' airs Wednesdays at 9:30 p.m.
on Fox.
