REDMAN - Red Gone Wild: Thee Album
| AllHipHop.com | "Redman ready to rock rough rhymes, renegade rapper, rip when it's rhyme time."

As Redman puts it, he’s “Bak in Da Building” and, as he rhymes in “Gimmie One” over the Pete Rock-produced slow grind, he’s “back in business like EPMD” (Get it? EPMD’s albums always had “business” in the title).
