The Masked Singer is back!
A new episode of season 13 of the hit FOX singing competition series aired on Wednesday night (April 2).
The show, which began in South Korea, features celebrities singing songs while wearing costumes and face masks concealing their identities until they’re eliminated. Throughout the season, the contestants provide clues to try and help the judges and fans figure out who is under the mask.
This season includes the new costumed character Detective Lucky Duck, who will help panelists “uncover who’s behind each mask.”
During the episode, Group C contestants Mad Scientist Monster, Nessy, Stud Muffin, and Yorkie hit the stage for their first performances of the season.
While on stage, Stud Muffin performed “Poison” by Bell Biv DeVoe.

FIRST PERFORMANCE CLUES:
– Said he had a “muffin top the majority of [his] life”
– Here to represent his “team”
– Basketball sneakers shown

– Has handfuls of money
-Says one of his teammates “ran with a mascot”

SECOND PERFORMANCE CLUES:
– Chain locked up in a box shown
– Says he and his “brothers” were “poisoned”
– Holds up a wrapped present
– Plays with a toy jet
– Once got a birthday message from Bell Biv DeVoe
– He’s a Grammy winner
– He’s once performed with Omarion
– He’s “shared the screen” with Ken Jeong
PANEL GUESSES: MC Hammer, 2 Chainz, & Method Man
OUR GUESS: Method Man
We believe that the “team” clue could be in reference to Wu-Tang Clan, which Method Man helped form in 1992. While Method Man was never severely overweight, the rapper has become a gym buff and prioritized working out a lot more over the past 10 years. The sneakers can be a nod to the Wu-Tang Nike Dunk shoes released in 1999 and the jam clue Method Man signing with Def Jam Records for his 1994 solo debut, Tical. Method Man and Omarion once collaborated together on the song “Luke Skywalker.” He and Ken appeared together on an episode of Drop the Mic.
