is redman's dare the darkside up there with big's ready to die, nas' illmatic, gza's liquid swords?

[I love Latina women]

now while dare iz a darkside ain't never been my favorite redman album, i can't front on how great of a mc redman was back then and just whole vibe of the album and it's cohesive sound. back durin' 94' and 95'(specifically like 92' to 96', i'd even say 98' because i fukks with doc's da name) redman was one of the best mcs in hip hop. but i'm interested in knowin' if any of y'all would say dare iz a darkside could hang with albums such as big's ready to die, nas' illmatic and gza's liquid sword

If there was a redman album in that vein it'd be Muddy Waters

i like muddy more than dare but the dare comparison is better because ready to die, illmatic and liquid swords were all some grimy and hard (pause) ass albums, like dare was

i don't know if i'd put it with those albums but it's great & def one of those joints you really have to ride all the way through. my 2nd fav Redman album

It should be, but red doesn't really appeal to the current generation as much as all those others do. I bet anybody under 25 probably wouldn't even know this album, a damn shame.

Frankly I wasn't feeling it all like that at the time.

Redman got like 10x better as a lyricist over the years.

Id compare Whut Thee Album to those other ones. Dare was almost too dark. I always like the album but it was a little too out there if that makes sense. Prolly my 3rd favorite album from him tho

me either
in fact, it's taken me years to come around to this album and i still don't like it as much as whut thee album and muddy waters

but i thought it was fair to compare it to those albums because it shares that same appeal

yeah, i was just thinkin' because of how dark and hard (pause) red was comin' (pause) with it, made sense to compare it to liquid swords, illmatic and ready to die
