Never acted like somebody he wasn't, Redman has always been 100. I'll be that I'll be that

Redman is just one of those guys that he looks like fun and trouble at the same time. Ha. He's a very likable guy. His smile is mischievous. He has a lot of layers: he's hip hop, street, ghetto, vulgar, trouble, funny, crazy, weed head, and most of all a talented brotha and a hip hop legend. Thanks Red 4 a detailed interview on your career.

My favourite rapper of all time. He had me at "Whut...Thee Album" and then, when I thought he was untouchable, doubled down with "Dare Iz A Darkside" which was even better. Then, album three "muddy Waters" drops and it is EVEN BETTER AGAIN lol Redman albums were an event. Much love to Red and the entire Def Squad fam xxx
