It means that you have a reputation and that people know all about you (as far as your reputation goes) before they meet you. If you were to meet Hitler or Mother Theresa you would have a good idea what to expect. If your reputation is good then its a good thing. If your reputation is bad (and the expression is usually used in connection with bad reputations) then it is a bad thing.

What does your reputation supersedes you mean?

The usual expression is "Your reputation precedes you." "Precedes" means "goes before". It is used when you meet a person that has a reputation that is so good , or so bad, that you know about them already. It's usually said in ironic situations. "Supersede" means to replace with a better version of something. "The Mark IV has superseded the old Mark III" Perhaps by substituting this word for "precedes" in the saying, the person is implying that the legend that has been created around this person has become so great that it now has a life of its own and the real person is no longer important. Such a thing is not uncommon.
