Two classic albums with Dare is a Darkside and Muddy Waters but his first album plus Red Gone Wild are certified bangers. not including the two Red and Meth Albums, Reggie got a solid discography

Whut? Thee Album is a undebatable classic.

Dude was my favorite MC back then. His first two albums have always been better than Muddy Waters, to me. As a day one fan, I felt by '96, he started getting a little comedic and less raw, like he was on the first two joints. Erick Sermon said the same. He said if Red stayed more hardcore, he feels he would be in more Top 5 talks. Muddy Waters is his last real classic.

Red Gone Wild was horrible, by Redman standards. Literally his last project I paid money for.

It ain't no debate.

That jeru record is Untouchable on that soundtrack.




:salute:

I played this damn record so much spring '95. This was back when Premier and Jeru couldn't miss! Stretch and Bobbito had the record before it dropped, and Stretch would play this literally every week! Had us trying to find this sh*t in the stores!

He was great technically. I'm talking about the bars. Treach just wasn't the guy who made you hit rewind or had crazy lines quotables. Red is known for stand out lines and he's no slouch technically. Red best verses still hold up today. Treach's don't.
Everything you said about Treach is big time cap. It's like you wasn't even around in that era or just never heard a naught tape before

I could never take Red music serious. He was never my cup of tea. The only song ever I sought from him was the Em collaboration on Nutty Professor 2 soundtrack. Other than that I wasn’t interested



Sohh ypu were not cognitive.

When tonite's tha nite rocked.

Red has 4-5 top tier projects to his name that he was apart of at very least. Im not a huge fan of dare iz or muddy. Docs da name wasnt bad, the singles were his best yet imo. And meth and red he killed as well. Never really checked el nino not a keith murray fan.

Dare iz is most overrated imo. I love dark albums of its time, tried to love it but cant. Its just not catchy at all minus the 2-3 big tracks

Muddy… idk. To me the production is not all that. Its good… but pales imo in comparison to rza/hav albums or even one off classics from lesser artists

I think Muddy Waters is a classic, his best album overall IMO.

I agree with breh. And I say that as someone who still gives Poverty’s Paradise regular spins. Treach got away with a LOT of average/borderline weak bars because his voice and flow was hall of fame level. The funny thing is my boy put me up on this back then, and I wasn’t hearing that shyt at all. It took me years to understand what he was schooling me to.

Im not including the first album; he was snapping on that. But a lot of the shyt he was saying that SOUNDED crazy wasn’t really crazy at all. It was the flow.
