Words By Trackstar The DJ
I love well-done parodies.
Especially well-done, hilarious parodies of my favorite movies. Redman’s “I’ll Bee Dat” video goes in on every scene, including great mockings of The Blues Brothers and Wayne’s World (two of the greatest comedic productions to hit the big screen), and for 1998 week, I watched it with my Queen.
Some thoughts:
–Dude straight used a BROOM to get rid of the skinny women…
–If you love the original Blues Brothers movie, you GOTTA love Meth’s smile during the little intro…that shit is PERFECT.
–Check out the FUBU JERSEY!!!
–Is that a net in the back window of the car ol’ girl topples over?
–What song is that playing during that scene anyway? Someone help me out…
–Who wouldn’t actually watch Cabbie starring Reggie Noble??
I know I would.

thats such a good album.
Redman is top 10.
If I’m not mistaken, the name of that song is “No Way In, No Way Out” from the Belly soundtrack.
I got a link to it, but I can’t seem to upload it.
the cereal scene is classic
That song, video and album are all classics! I still crack up laughing when I watch that one.

I remember borrowing my homie Kyle’s copy of Doc’s Da Name and wilding out in my room. My mom comes up like “are you alright?”
Would Redman have had a career id Keith Murray hadn’t gotten locked up? I still wonder about that to this day.
Redman=Ludacris crazy dirty old uncle.
Redman=ODB’s drankin’ buddy from back in the day.
Red just seems like one of those dudes who never really quite lived up to his potential. He had crazy delivery, could be guttter, had metaphors, but there was just something about him… maybe the work ethic wasn’t there. He just didn’t craft the way he should’ve. Dude should’ve been bigger than ODB. sould’ve really blown bigger than he did.
He could’ve been like Busta Rhymes Lite or something=rowdy pop, funny, but still hood.
i dunno about dude.
Blackout was serious tho. I still listen to that when i can find it.
redman=top 20 all-time
u dont think Red lived up to his potential?
what makes u say that? he has dropped some great music.
funk doc, method man, busta rhymes and odb
are the fourth fantastic. great emcee, special dude & hiphop’s ovnis !! funnicoolasstic dudes (no homo)
a fuckin’ team… legendary emcees, out(/in)siders, or honorable mentions on the top 5 to the 10 list
u see what i mean. not lyricist like rakim, not hiphop like krs one, not illmatic like nas, not shady like em,
street like big l, buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut
plus in generally what’s hiphop has made of better … greumsed.
Red has the funniest videos…damn still crackin’ up…
yeah i agree with wit-e, Redman is top 20 (maybe 10) of all time…he has his off days just like anybody else, but all-in-all dude is a beast…of all his albums, the only wack joint i can think of is the latest, and i never really even gave that shit a chance…shit could still creep up on me
Top 10?
Nah. And Malpractice was pretty wack. He was even apologizing for it.
@TC – you gotta give me 20 tho…and i’ll give you malpractice as wack, i forgot that one…but his first four albums are all classics, 4.5 – 5 cigs each, IMO…then you got Blackout with mef (at least 4.5 cigs) and all his dope-ass guest appearances
he reminds me of devin the dude…or does devin the dude remind me of him?…either way, they got their lane and they stay in it, but they make quality, listenable (word?) music
@ sherm
Top 20 possibly.
I can’t co-sign on any 5 Cig albums from the man however.
4.5? MAYBE Whut… but that’s probably cuz it’s the first joint.
The thing that plagues these ultra-MCs like Red, Em, Luda, Wayne (maybe, not completely sold yet) is that while you can put them in a padded room and get nonstop rhymes about color, a good chunk of the material is nothing but rambling– that sounds good. I’d say Eminem and Luda have more than enough “real songs” to put them in the clear but you mix n’ match songs from the first 3 Redmans and it wouldn’t affect the direction of the albums at all. So while they could out rap someone like Kanye while being blindfolded hanging upside down, he’s a better artist, makes more cohesive songs, and in turn just overall better. That’s why I have trouble ranking the Redmans of the rap world so high.
i guess maybe i value spittin ability over album cohesion to a certain degree…i’d rather hear somebody with bona fide skills spit battle raps or weed raps or whatever kinda raps than hear a sub-par emcee, even if his album has concepts and is well put together from start to finish…obviously beats matter, too…but i don’t think you could argue against def squad beats
I mean skills are definitely important and there are only a select few of rappers who aren’t necessarily the greatest MCs who got high marks for their albums, but lets be real: the standard has been set in every sub-genre of Hip-Hop that if you’re gonna do this type of music, this how it should sound. So when you blend the skills and the concepts, that’s when you know you’re playing with fire.
before “Babies Making Babies”, there was “Kissin’ In The Crates”, a 4 volume set of soulful gems compiled by my homeskillet Apple Jac. these compilations were recorded between 2001 & 2002 and for those of you who may be like “where have i heard the name Apple Jac before?”, i posted a dope mix of his entitled “Obscurely Familiar” around these parts earlier this year.
some of these joints may be familiar to us because they’ve been sampled by some of our faves recently, and some haven’t but all and all, this is good quality music that we can all get down with point blank period.
