Redman: The Greatest Rapper of All-Time - Hip-Hop DX

[Sensitive Blake Griffin]

Redman has one of the greatest runs of any artist of any era in rap history with Whut? Thee Album, Dare iz a darkside, Muddy Waters, Docs Da Name, and then Blackout


That's like 4/5 classics. Docs Da Name is a good album but not classic imo.

 

[ManBearPig]

I've listened to his cousin Tame One way more.


I think both of those artifacts albums were better than any redman album

 

[Ces1ne?]

Been one of my fav/top 5 for over 20 years. First 4-5 albums all heat. New shyt all heat. Regularly kills any guest spot, kills Mef every time. Inspired Em, Source Rookie of the year in like 92. BIG def jacked a bit of Red early on. He's legit. A legend in the hood like Acura!!

Dap/Rep

 

[Ces1ne?]

Easily sits in a lot of people's Top 5 conversations
#3 or #4 for me so gotta be a lot the put him @ #1
Muddy Waters is damn near perfect & his first 2 weren't far off either. (Prefer Dare Iz A Darkside to W?TA tho)
I fukked with Docs the Name 2000 too Solid LP.

 

[MidnightMercenary]

Listening to Muddy Waters right now

9.5/10 but only my third favorite album of his

 

[I love Latina women]

 

[Awesome Wells]

Red's always been in my Top 10.

He was definitely my GOAT from '92-'97 though.

 

[Greenhornet]

id put him about all the people mentioned honestly because of longevity
i dont know anyone thats come off as nice for as long
i didnt even think about him using the George Clinton samples months before the chronic came out

Guess you could call it the OG Chronic hah

Dre kinda used those samples to create g-funk out the West Coast but E Dub and Redman pretty much kept the samples true to their p-funk roots. So there are two divergences in that sense. That's why even tho Redman from the East he has some of the best sounding albums that age more gracefully than say a traditional boom bap one.

Nice edit


Argument avoided

highkey eric sermon is my favorite producer of all time

im glad he doesnt get credit like that cause it keeps all those epmd beats and redman joints to myself
I grew up on all of that so it makes me not feel other shyt as much cause his beats had flavor, they always had perfect basslines
and they just pocket so deep to spit to. Like Cosmic slop ... that shyt is wild, you can go on and on.

Redman has an introspective song over the "Lost Ones" beat too nobody has mentioned that yet
