I don't know, man.

Red was my favorite MC growing up. It wasn't even close. I used to cop whole albums just because they had a Funk Doc feature on them. But I haven't heard a joint from the homie that I've really dug in probably 7-8 years.

I don't know if anyone feels me on this, but he's just not the same anymore. The whole vibe that made him so dope to me back then, is just gone now.

Yeah I mean this track isn't heinous but he certainly seems to be a far cry from the personality he used to be .

Weed smokers are going to hate me but I blame the green. You reach 40 the effects are no longer going to be rife with creativity .

:snoop:

I'm aware of this .

My point . Is that he's past 40 now .

He's obviously burnt himself out to an extent .

Dare iz a Darkside was almost 20 years ago. The adverse effects are unsharpening his mind .

:rudy:

how is it unsharpening his mind when he can still come out with tracks like the op just posted?

he just dropped this freestyle a couple months ago...you telling me this dont remind you of the muddy waters redman?



weed hasn't had a negative effect on him his problem was that he changed his style up too much to appeal to the mainstream

I actually like that freestyle. But that's one song out of a handful from the past decade .

He's 43 years old and unfocused .

You can hear it in almost all of his work post Malpractice .

He seems focused now..he made the conscious decision to switch back to his original style...that's a start right there

Really the only thing to do is wait till muddy waters 2..after that we can see if he still got it or not

Fingers crossed.

"Take ya wifey out for dinner, hit her, in the bathroom, forget her, and leave her with the taaaaab" :heh:

shyt is dope. Not to be a hype track, but he's still got a dope ass flow here. Moe Bee coming through with the crisp snares :ohlawd: Actually kind of dope to hear Mr. Cheeks on the mic again.
