Yeah I'm not really talking about his verses. I think what the OP was complaining about, don't wanna assume, was that he just can't get into Redman's flow. And I agree sometimes, but I feel when he uses better drum beats, his flow shines through. But he has the tendency to just get on weird beats with random drum patterns. I know alot of people like that, but it's just not my thing

Aha. I'm not mad at that opinion. Sadly, i'm no producer ... but, i bet someone could remix redman's entire catalog over primo beats (or just blaze, or whomever), and it would still be dead on.

I have seen legit soulless, socially inept dysfunctional types groove in public hard to the first Redman album. He do be saying some shyt that looks goofy if held up in the light though.
"if rap were Bball i'd have assists like James Worthy"
i mean, James has assists, sure. But Magic had a lot more. And what does having assists in rap even mean?
All in all Red was a huge part of my adolescence and I have love for him. I hope he isn't gay.
Also, Redman's money cuts are REALLY MONEY.

cut the nonsense. Kast was well respected too, but NO ONE was putting them in the pantheon of GOATs. All of that changed in the past decade or so.

He put on and and/orgot shine for half of Def Jam. Hurricane G, Keith... Lady Luck. Gov-matic. Redman was getting dudes chances. Saukratees... Outsidaz. He took Meth under his wing.
He was influential in vouching for both Eminem AND Canibus when people were concerned about whether 'underground' rappers could work or sell.
He vouched for Em to Dre (Em is from Outsidaz who are out of Jersey), and he also knew Canibus way before anyone mainstream did. He co-signed him when LL's A&R wanted to put Bis on 4-3-2-1 and LL didn't even know who he was.
He's also the reason Rah Digga is in the De La Soul vid with DeLa/Redman (she don't even rap in it) they weren't up on her like that, but he knew her and eventually she ended up with Busta on Flipmode but she is originally from Outsidaz in Jersey, same as Eminem. "Outsidaz and we suing the courts... cause we dope as fukk and only get a 2 in the source"
So like you said, Magic has more assists... but Magic gets credit for his passing. James Worthy has mad assists too and gets no credit.
If rap were B-ball... Red has assists like James Worthy
Thats why when you ask Eminem his top ten it goes "Reggie, Jay-Z, Tupac and Biggie, Andrea from Outcast, Jada, Kurrupt, Nas" and then himself... but don't sleep. That Reggie is Reggie Noble aka Redman. #1 on Eminem's list.
Red is your favorite rapper's favorite rapper, literally, for alot of people.

A Jersey nikka who don't like Redman....I seen it all.
I think the main problem is that Redman doesn't usually rap over hard drums. The production he raps over has usually soft drums that are kind of over the place. Couple that with random weird sound samples, and that he's mad animated. The drums he raps over are so random, you don't know when to head nod.
I feel when he's on more tracks with drums with more direction, he murders it. But sadly, we don't see alot of them
This is a perfect example of which tracks Redman should be more on

No doubt. I thought was Meth for a second when I first heard this joint high school. God damn I'm old. I remember rolling with the Daytons with 415's in the trunk bumpin this album all day. Them was the days before Instagram, Facebook, etc. Easy p*ssy for days breh. That blwamp, ba blwamp in the trunk attracted the bytches by the sound waves.
Ummm. I thought he was from wack ass NY. So I think I'm worse than him. lol

Redman has 3 classic/near classic albums. Not sure why some of you are saying he's only got few good jams 
Redman is the first rapper to introduce doctor persona in his skits and first to have double persona in his raps (Reggie/Redman) which later Eminem and Tyler both jacked for their shyt, many of casual fans don't know that. Everyone on some double personality shyt, but Redman birthed that (well along with Kool Keith but that nikka was on some other shyt anyway).
Also one of the best punchline rappers, one of the few acts in music who had first three albums all considered very fukking good. Your favorite rapper doesn't have better discography than Redman based solely on his first three albums. Name me a a rapper/group with all three first projects at Redman's albums level. Only Outkast and KRS-One come to mind. Maybe Cypress Hill as well, they got 4 very good records in a row.
