I like this.  I always forget how good of a rapper Redman is.  Even my wife was impressed.  She's mostly country music now.  But she was saying it's nice to hear and old artist staying true to what he does.  He's not trying to do mumble rap or whatever they're doing now lol.

--- Quote ---Redman - Muddy Waters Too | Review



Redman's Muddy Waters Too is a triumphant return for the Brick City legend, dropping nearly three decades after his classic 1996 album Muddy Waters. For many, that original LP remains his magnum opus—a gritty, funk-fueled showcase of charisma, humor, and bars. To see Redman come so close to matching it after almost 30 years is nothing short of remarkable. At 32 tracks and 80 minutes, this project is massive, yet it never drags—a rarity in today's EP-dominated landscape. Redman bucks the trend of brevity and delivers quality and quantity, giving us a proper full-length experience.

From the jump, Funk Doc Spock sounds energized, confident, and in top form. His humor, wordplay, and wit are as sharp as ever, while his flow feels timeless. Whether it's the hard-hitting opener "Da Fuck Goin' On?", the soulful Jersey anthem "Don't You Miss," or the stoner-friendly "Kush" with Snoop Dogg, Redman navigates a range of moods without missing a beat. Tracks like "Lite It Up," an epic posse cut featuring Queen Latifah, Naughty by Nature, Rah Digga, and more, underline his dedication to the culture.

Despite a lineup of producers—Erick Sermon, Rockwilder, Khrysis, Rick Rock, and Redman himself, among others—the album feels surprisingly cohesive. The beats balance classic boom bap with modern touches, creating a gritty yet polished soundscape. Highlights like "Dynomite" with Sheek Louch and "Pop da Trunk" show Red's versatility, shifting between funky, hardcore, and even trap-inspired beats with ease.

Redman's infamous love of skits is present but doesn't interrupt the flow too much, making the album more enjoyable as a whole. This year saw plenty of veterans drop strong projects, but Muddy Waters Too is the standout. Redman proves he can still hang with the best, delivering a long-awaited sequel that's fun, consistent, and deeply rooted in Hip Hop. For those craving an album with personality, humor, and bars galore, this is a must-listen. Props to Reggie Noble for showing us all how it's done.
