Tony Starks

Tony Starks is an alias often used by the rapper and actor Clifford Smith, better known by his stage name Method Man. Method Man is a member of the East Coast hip hop collective Wu-Tang Clan, which rose to fame in the early 1990s. However, the album "Only Built 4 Cuban Linx..." was not produced by Tony Starks/Method Man but by another Wu-Tang Clan member, Corey Woods, who is better known as Raekwon the Chef. Raekwon released "Only Built 4 Cuban Linx..." in 1995, and it is often credited for pioneering the Mafioso rap subgenre. The album featured several appearances from fellow Wu-Tang members, including Ghostface Killah, who is sometimes referred to as Tony Starks or Ironman in his solo career. Ghostface Killah's strong presence on the album led to it being considered a collaborative work between him and Raekwon by many fans.
