Redman Talks 'Muddy Waters Too' | LPtv

Yeah, you know I roll out. I'm like this [ __ ] got it. So we are here at Licorice Pizza. We have hip hop Nobility in the house. Reggie Noble Red Man. You were at the Hollywood Bowl last night, right? And now you're at another almost equally iconic LA location, Licorice Pizza. How was the bowl last night? Uh the Hollywood Bowl performing at the Roots uh picnic school of 95 was lit. It was

uh got to see some old friends. Um got the vibe. Uh my sister live out here so she brought some of the family, some friends. So I was able to have fun on stage. Uh body the mic in the audience with my brother Method Man and then hang with my family. So it was a an amazing vi in in the '9s and early 2000s. Remember how California was in the '9s and early 2000? It it was fun. Now it's more a little political, a little bit, but it was it had that early 90s vibe last night. So would you consider uh the '9s the golden age of hip hop a lot of people did. Actually, one of the songs on Muddy Waters 2, which you're here signing today, Don't You Miss, is kind of all about like how the '9s was such a great time, right? You know your [ __ ] huh? She know her [ __ ] Great record.

People been waiting for this record for a while, right? Uh yes, I would I would definitely compare it to that. Um the nostalgic of it, uh the fabric of that

song, if you will. Uh Don't You Miss Matter of fact, the whole album is, you know, 90s feel, '90s blanket, if you will, far as the beats, the rhymes, the uh sequence as well. Um, yes, I can compare it to Last Night because, you know, Roots is from the 90s, Little Kim, you know, uh, uh, Bone Thugs and Harmony. Uh, my brother Raycoan. Um, uh,

am I missing someone up there? Uh, it was pretty stock, Bill. Yeah, it was. It was. It was. And people enjoyed it. You could tell that '9s was one of the most, and I say this on stage, too, is one of the most pivotal eras for hip-hop. like 80s was dope. Um, even 70s at the end of the 70s was was dope with Grandmaster Flash. Um, uh, bringing in Run DMC in the top of the 80s, but 90s kind of elevated it and made it more universal

language. It's kind of the era where people stopped, not that I ever thought this, but a lot of people thought rapping, hip-hop was a fad. It wasn't real music. And 90s is kind of when people realized, actually, no, this is like the dominant pop culture. Absolutely. Absolutely. And it and it started it actually started where they didn't think rap was a fat when Rock Kim and Big Daddy Kane and Bis Marky and Salt and Pepper and EPMD and when they came out they was like, "Okay, this is serious. This is a culture. This is a element. This is is a real genre of music now. A cornerstone of music. So when we came out, it was we more like elevated and made it more universal for people to understand each other culture-wise. Like for example, I say it in the sense of if I go to Asia, like especially in the ' 90s, if you went to Asia, they didn't know the words. They just knew certain words, but they understood the body language and the motion and the feeling of it. So that's why they were so attraed to it. They couldn't actually sing word for word, but they felt the emotion and the body language of it. So, yeah, I'm glad to be a part of the '9s era. And we're glad to have you. Um, the album, as I mentioned, Muddy Waters 2, which you were signing today, right? It wasn't quite the '9s, but you were promising this record like around 2013, I think, is when people like it was people have been waiting like 15 years for this record or something. Actually, earlier than that.

Okay. I've been starting been talking about uh Muddy Waters 2 since like 20087

and and believe me uh I had the record done but I was just going through so much uh personal things with myself uh that I wasn't ready like if I would have released this album back at the time I said and pronounced I was dropping the album, it wouldn't have had this much effect of me dropping it now. Like some of the songs on that album is 10 years old. I mean, there's one song, What's Hot, where you say you're almost 50, I believe you say. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. I'm 50. Yeah. I actually turned 55 in April. So, yeah. So, thank you. Um, Aries in the house. Aries.

Aries. Um, yeah, I actually did that song right before I turned 50, like 48, 48 years old. and songs like Pop the Trunk, like that song I did like in 2005, something like that. But I'm I'm the kind of guy that uh it's it's a process to my madness, if you will. And that goes from how I uh do the record, how I

put lyrics on the beat, how I EQ the record, also how I sequence the record, which is very important uh for artists to know. um young or old. Uh you can have a gang of dope songs, but if you don't know how to sequ sequence them right, for an album, they just get lost and people will say, "Ah, that album was all right." So, I know how to sequence. And the madness to that is actually having songs that you can pull up like, "Yo, I'm using this song that I did seven years ago. It still uh stands the test of time." So, that's what this album is about. I mean, it's it's ambitious and it's a lost art. The sequencing when we're talking, you know, we're talking about the 90s and stuff now. Uh, to put a record, I think it's 88 minutes long. It's an hour and a half long. It's 32 tracks and we live in this streaming era. Obviously, this is a double LP for pressed on Licorice Pizza vinyl. Uh, but a lot of people don't listen to whole albums, especially long albums like that. So you had to obviously I mean it's a testament to your talent that like this people are listening to the whole thing and wanting to buy it on double vinyl but like what are your thoughts about the fact that people don't really listen to albums the way they used to. They don't uh they don't listen to out because of the streaming platforms the uh outlets that we have now you know back in our day we had like just you know physical copies.

Um, now you get you you get get an opportunity to choose. Like I can skip from one and go to 32 if I want. Just like that, right? And you could do that on a CD too, but uh it's more in tune

with you on your phone and that's where all the music is mostly played from your phone. Um, I thought about doing I like, believe me, I wanted to make the album like no more than 19 songs. But speaking to my boy Rockwaller and watching uh

what's what's the pop chick name? Uh, no, no, it was her, too. I forgot her name. Sorry. But Chris Brown as well. He had like 40 songs on one of his albums and I was like, damn it. Same about Taylor Swift with her. Yes, Taylor Swift with the tortured poets department. She work. Yo, she works. She does. She works. Like, she would make an album and then make another album of the same songs remixed. Like, she works. I admire her team. I admire Chris Brown and this team for doing all these songs. And I was like, can I do that in hip-hop? and my boy Rockwaller. Shout out to my boy Rockwaller who is uh uh one of the like

main producers of the album. He produced most of the joints on there, but he's also like an ANR on it as well. And he said, "Yo, bro, we in the streaming age. You can put how many songs you want. Don't be afraid." So, he pushed me to that. And after watching Tella Swift work and Chris Brown work, like them them two right there gave me that confidence to uh put that many songs in there and it was able to work because of how I sequenced it. What I got a lot on Muddy uh the the the comments I got on Muddy Waters 2, not only was it a dope album, dope beats, dope rhymes and [ __ ] but a lot of people said in my comments like, "Yo, I can't believe that the album is an hour and so what maybe what 20 minutes or 15 minutes or whatever. I can't believe it's that long and when you play it, it don't feel like it. It's that's because of the sequence. That's how important sequencing is." So Muddy Waters, the first one came out going back to the '90s. Came out in 96, I believe. Yeah, 9697. Was it always a plan to do a sequel? Maybe it wouldn't be this much late, you know, this much this much time would elapse, but was there always two parts in your mind? No, that's a good question. She's [ __ ] good. She's very [ __ ] good. She's [ __ ] very good. Clip the part. Oh, I'm sorry. No, no. Clip it like to have is like Oh, okay. Cool. She is. Yeah, she's very [ __ ] good. Um, no.

Actually, no. It wasn't a plan to do it. After I did uh Doc's the Name, I I was like, I'm doing a Muddy Waters, too, because after Doc's the Name, the the music and the fab the fabric of the music started changing. And then I dropped uh Malpractice, the album, which which still went I had dope songs, a hot single on there as well, but I was doing How the movie around that time. time I got into movies. So, my focus wasn't really too much on music like it was before the previous albums. So, after Docs the Name, I was like, I got to do a Muddy Waters 2. And then when the music like completely switched around far as the sound and the style of it, I was like, I got to do a Muddy Waters 2 to bring that 90s feel back. And what better time? Like, I dropped the album before Christmas. Christmas Eve, I think, right? It's like a present to your fans. That's but that's unheard of.

We all know that if you're in the music industry, we all know there are four quarters in the music industry. Uh there's like from January to uh maybe

March and then it's from March to like maybe August then and then August to like maybe October then October to December or something like that. The end of what they call Q4, right? And um we consider the industry shut down around December 18th or 19th. That's when all the record execs go on vacation, spend do the family time, and they don't open back up to January 8th. Uh so my team

was like because I'm independent and I dropped it on my own label, Gillah House Records. Shout out to Gillah House, my team. Uh shout out to Riverton Entertainment. Um shout out to Groundwork that distributed it. Um we we had to make a decision like yo listen if we drop this album um after December 18th if something goes wrong on something we don't like we can't call people to go back to the plant repress or you know to to set it up for for streaming. So we just I had to make sure I dot my eyes crossed my tees and we dropped the album on December 24th. That is unheard of. But now I think I opened the door. I think I cracked a coal. Like, hey, why not drop it when people are at their homes and with with the family and holidays and stuff. You probably did mess up a lot of critics year end list. They'd already turned them in, you know, best albums of 2024 and they're like, damn it, I got to put Muddy Waters 2 on there now. You know what? That is a good question. I mean, I never thought about that. Only thing I was thinking about was I want that independent Grammy. Like I've been praying for it and I'm going to get it. I'm saying it here on Licorice Pizza. I'm going to get an independent Grammy. I've been praying on it and I got faith more than the mustard seed about big as a mustard seed. They say that in the Bible. You got faith big as a mustard seed. You can make things happen. Um I'm going to get an independent Grammy. I was thinking I can get it for this year, but it with the Grammy works, it's the year after. So, it's from like September to September, right? September to September and then a No, it's after October. So, now I I'll be in 2025 or 26 where where they

introduced to 25. Have you ever won a Grammy before? Like, absolutely not. No. No. I've been nominated. What were you nominated for? Uh I I was nominated for the Beanie's uh Beanie Man album, Me and Rockaller. And

the song Aguilera song. I don't think it was nominated. Even though that song still brings me money and checks. I was about to say. Yes, it still bring me checks like a [ __ ] Um it was iconic. You're in the video as well. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Christina is the best. We just performed in Vegas, too. Um um it was for De Lasso. Um the song um they

did a song. So that got nominated for a Grammy. So yeah, but I'm going to win that independent Grammy. That would be awesome. So yeah, I think I could see that. That's going to happen. Me too. Yeah, why not? Like what the [ __ ] Yeah. Hell yeah. So, you mentioned that this record, you know, took so long that Muddy Waters took took a while to come out because you were going through some stuff and it seems like you've made a lot of positive changes in your life. You've talked about it like with your health and stuff. Can you tell tell me a little bit about Okay. um the changes in my life like first of all um I had to three words I abide by and I say this a lot to people and in the interviews too and I say it in a lot of my interviews because I want people to really get the picture and start uh learning about self love and selfawareness and self-healing it is the best thing that we can do as an individual um I always say you you want to help change the world, but you have to change yourself first to help change the world.

And like during that time I mentioned uh like I'm dropping the album Muddy Waters 2 back in the day, I wasn't ready. And I was meaning I was loose. I was running all over the place. I was in [ __ ] relationships. I was giving energy to things I shouldn't have done. And it and it wasn't until I went celibate for a couple of years and a half and stopped smoking uh for a couple of years and a half. And I call it cutting out the distraction for a better reception. Um,

and it wasn't until then where I started to notice, hey, I have to be accountable. I have to be transparent and I have to be vulnerable. I say these three words in every interview because I want everyone to get the picture. Like, learn these words. Abide by it. Add them in your add it in your arsenal of life. walking with accountability, vulnerability, and transparency. Um, now

like the way I move, I don't even I'm not even going back to smoking. It's been like two years and a half. Then I went back smoking like last year and and

I was smoking little pin joints, four hitter quitters. But even now, even then, I was just like, I don't even need it if I'm only doing two hit of quitter. So, I stopped in January again and I'm not going back. that played a major role of who I am now is besides the mind and body. Strong mind, strong body, strong body, strong mind. Um it

the biggest thing that we're missing today with people of all culture, no matter if you're white, black, brown, green, alien green, there's a lot of accountability missing with people uh actually saying,

you know what, that was my fault. Or even saying, I don't know how. And you can't blame a lot of people because of the social media and what it teaches you and it teaches you uh self-love. They like the social media is teaching you self-love the wrong way. And it's not until I realized that and said I have to see someone. I have to see a shadow worker. Anybody might know what that is. You know, do your knowledge. Go do your research on what a shadow worker is. But it wasn't until I started seeing my shadow work arose and you know actually working with myself and and and stopped doing this. I stopped doing this and I started doing this.

That's what the world is right now. This this nah you this. You this. And it wasn't until I started doing this I was like [ __ ] And I started doing this and

more this. It's I see the world different now. And it plays a part in your music. It plays a part of how you living. It plays a part of how you communicating with your spouse, with your loved ones, with your kids, with your friends. It really do justice to those areas. So, I'm not going to stretch it cuz I could go on all day about it and rules and regulations and [ __ ] I've learned. But just learn those three words: vulnerability, transparency, and accountability. Look them up if you don't know it and then when you do add them to your arsenal. How did that affect the lyrics on Muddy Waters 2?

Anything that you've written relatively recently? Right. And put it this way. I'm I'm 55 years old, right? Um I can't talk about [ __ ] I did in, you know, 97 and talk about young dumb [ __ ] I had to have something to feed the people. Like we're at this age, you're feeding. Like back then you was feeding to people, but you was feeding at a level of I'm young. I'm I'm fragrant. I'm vibrant. I'm having fun. I'm smoking. I got [ __ ] I I got blood all around. I got the hot cars. It's levels to this [ __ ] Once you get older, you find out that you have more responsibility. And my responsibility is to not just feed myself but I had to feed I have to feed my people and I have to feed their soul in their spirit and I had to share my journey because there's no uh testimony without a test. You got to have a test to have a testimony. And we all know I like I always say and other people say it as well. There's healing in communion. There's healing in conversation. We are put on this earth to conversate with each other to help heal each other from our journeys and what we go through and what we went through. So, uh yeah, I just couldn't talk [ __ ] on this album. I had to share my journey, which is self-healing, but in a cool way where it's not preachy like you should do this and you should do that. I I'll be the first one to say, you know what? Yeah, I was a big [ __ ] up. Yeah, I was [ __ ] everything. I was I was whing. I was drinking. Yeah, I was. Yeah, but look at me now. And sometimes we need to go through that storm to see the better person than us.

Are there specific tracks on Muddy Waters too that you want to mention that are like especially deep into what you're saying? Uh yeah, like the song uh like the song uh like

one of my favorite songs of uh uh off the Muddy Waters 2 album is Ghetto Motivation. And I and I start off like haters hoping I flop, losing all of my guap, my money. Um,

understand that I'm a lion. I'm supposed to take what you got. And then you say to your ops, "I'm a big dog, [ __ ] Watch." You talk dirty. Then the janitors start sliding in with the mop. Um, pedestrians looking like, "Wow, like the rock." I raised my eyebrow. Chicks ain't [ __ ] with me when I was broke. So, oh no, don't look now. Warrior the way I riff. It feels like I feel like everybody hate Chris surgical with my freedom of speech. You um you listening, you might get a faceelift. Look, I'm an example of what trapping earned undert money tax return. Cut the cake and split it with the wolves. Jealous [ __ ] they collapse and burn. Selfish with it, you become the fool. Vulnerable now women love the dude. One of the greatest writers like I'm yay. You feeling different? Who the [ __ ] are you? Carbon fiber on a whip. This a movie baby get a clip. This new world order ain't [ __ ] And I'm not implanted with a chip. See, I'm I'm I'm talking now. I'm I'm talking in a cool firm. I'm talking in a cool mode where I'm rapping, but I don't sound like I'm preaching. I'm just giving off the knowledge that I know.

That was awesome, by the way. Right. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. This is kind of un relatively uncharted territory because like the rappers that came up in the 80s and the 90s and the fans that came up with them. I mean, are you feeling like agism in hip-hop is less of a thing? Yeah. I used to feel like there was a lot of agism in hip-hop. Like if a rapper was like 30, people thought that was old. Yeah. Well, then here's the thing. Rock and roll don't have an age limit. Rock and roll. Rock and roll. And I say that in a sense where rock and rollers that came out even in the 80s, they're still on tour rocking in the 60s.

Rolling Stones. Yes. Still on tour. They're not considered old school. They considered legends. Um, why can't we? You know, we're considered legends. We're not old school. Um, now in today's music, it does has a a age limit, especially with AI. Like, if you ain't came out with an album before AI started, a lot of new artists are doomed. like cuz producers are creating their own artists on AI, not even dealing with the attitude and the the the uh emotions of a real person. Um

like for example like new music like new music that came out between 2015 and now

like after after seven or eight years they calling you a OG. They're calling you. Look at your OG. What's good? What's good with the OG? Like he's been And the music too. Like I heard what song was that? It was a while ago. I heard a song that just came out two years ago

or a year. Yeah, two years ago. The tops. And I heard it on the radio. They said, "Yeah, we're going to take it back old school to this." And it was a new song that just came out a year and a half ago, too. And I was like, "Are you serious? They're labeling y'all that quick as old school." So, yeah, it's it's bad in a sense, but that's the new wave. But do you think it's changing now that like, you know, you and your peers are, you know, still making music that isn't that's still so valid and holds up with the the classic disography. I feel like it's changing. I mean, look, I bet there was a huge turnout at the bowl last night. It wasn't just people who were Gen X age or whatever. It was lit.

She's [ __ ] good. She's [ __ ] good. Here's the thing. When we came out in the '9s, was people complaining about '90s artists? Yes. They complain. Couple of couple of old u old legends, if you will, artists was like, "Who are these guys that coming out in the '90s smoking blunts with their hair all while sagging their pants and this and that?" Yeah, we got it. But what we did for the culture of hip hop, we elevated that [ __ ] to we gained fans. Some of the new era, now don't get me wrong, there is a lot of young guys out the new era that is doing great music, great music like Kendrick, uh JCole, I can name them, uh Gold Link. They're doing great music. They're doing good music that stand the test of time. But it's not in the masses like we were.

Feel me? So when people when the when the new when the new era is not in the masses of putting out that quality music, it it gets kind of stamped as uh okay, they're not they're not putting out the music that we want to hear. And it's a lot of older cats that say it. But then again, I got a lot of younger cats that come up to me that say, "Yo, Redmond." I'll be like, I'll be like, "How old are you?" He'd be like, "I'm 22 years old." I'll be like, "You know me?" They'd be like, "What?" They'd be like, "Yo, that's only people you guys is the only ones we listen to." I'd be excuse me. And I'll be like, "I would expect you guys to be tuned into the new music." They'd be like, "Yeah, a couple of people, but most of that young that most of them see most of these young artists is for real young teeny boppers.

Like, we don't listen to all that young, you know, murderous [ __ ] Like, we [ __ ] with y'all." In other words, so it's I I

say that to say to refer back to the question is like our era, we elevated it, right? And because of the newer era wasn't in the masses of being listened to and and and considered elevating it to the next plateau, it left us jobs. It left the a whole lane open because in the earlier 2000s it was kind of, oh [ __ ] all right, [ __ ] slowed down for us. Now, oh, we're running [ __ ] We back

to running [ __ ] Big facts. We are back to running [ __ ] We know the new era got their lane, but we we opened up our lane again. We opened up the floodgates again. We're packing shows. We're packing stadiums. We're back to on our job. Like it's almost like the '9s because of some of the error not elevating it in the masses, if you will. If it if I may understood, I understand. You know, BET said it I read an article. They said that 2025 was the year of Redman. I don't know if you saw that. Right. I heard of that. I The year's about half over. What else do you have planned for uh 2025? We'll see you at the Grammys next year, right? February.

See y'all at the Grammy. I'm getting that independent Grammy. Uh you know what it's um the for this year and I appreciate BET for saying that. Um,

I think it's just more growth with me. Like I want to do different things. Like I want to direct um I'm working on a new album as well. And after that I'm going into another genre of music. Like I want to do electronic music like clubish electronic music and just I want to take a break from rap and just do some other things. Um but I guess what I could say um besides business of

Redman trying to grow it as well. I think more growth of myself is what is

what going to is what going to stamp me as the year of the red man. My growth of myself. I'm trying to get myself in the more presence of peace. Um, I pray I ask God for what I want. Um,

and most of the time when we ask our higher power, whoever you believe in, what we want, we don't get it, but God

puts us in a place where we at peace about it, not getting it. Feel me? Like, I used to worry about, yo, I I want to make sure I got uh generational wealth. I want to make like a hundred million dollars and, you know, make sure my kids and I'm like, you know what? I'm right where I'm supposed to be financially, mentally, uh, physically. I I I don't need this to stamp me as generational wealth. I want to help break the generational ignorance of the world. And I think that's going to be more of my job of breaking that generational ignorance of some things that I'm still thinking because I'm still working on myself. Uh because your reward for overcoming adversity and an obstacle is another obstacle. And adversity, it don't stop. You're never going to get to a place where you're just fully healed and like, "All right, I did it. We're going to have a birthday party." So, I think the year of the red man will be more growth and me doing more speaking engagements and sharing my testimony. I mean, yeah, do that. Yeah.

And and and helping people. And the only way you could do that is totally being transparent with yourself. Awesome. Well, I appreciate you being so transparent with me. I would end it on that note, but can I ask you two completely like random questions? [ __ ] yeah. [ __ ] you. So, Method Man was on the mass singer as Stud Muffin. Okay. Did you know that he was going to be on the show? Oh, absolutely not. I recognized his voice right away, as did all the judges. Yeah, absolutely not. Um, would you ever go on the massing? I'm obsessed with that show. Um, I would if it have I I only seen a couple of episodes. He was Stud Muffin. That was his That was his character. Stud Muffin.

He was like a kind of like buff, right? Pastry. Okay. Um, I would go in there um

because I got I definitely I I I'm definitely a character. Uh, a lot of people even he told me, "Bro, like, why don't you get back into acting?" And a lot of people say, "I should act. I should act because I bring a fabric of realness and actually being funny without trying to be funny, if you will." Um, and I want to be behind the camera more, but I will act. But honestly, it's like

I don't want to be in that world of learning lines all day, being on a set. I like skydiving. I I'm in a skydive community. I like doing things outside of work and me and my girl building on things and like I I just don't want to give my time all to work. Yes, the money will be great. Yes, it will help out more financially, but like I said, I'm fine where I'm at. But I'll think about it. And if they ever ask me, I'm going on just cuz you said it as well. We got quite a few. I mean, Buster Rimes did it, Flavor Flave did it. Uh, Whiz Khalifa did it. They've had some, you know, hip-hop icth did it. I tell you what, I tell you what show I do want to go on and I want to go on the show. Is that cake? Is it Cake?

Is it Cake? Yes. Y'all hear me right now? I love that show. I got to go on Is It Cake? They be having They be having stars on there. Sorry, my phone. They're calling you right now. They're like, "Hello, can you be on Is this cake? Can you come to the set?" Shut the It's No worries. Hello. Is it cake? Yo, I've been just talking about you [ __ ] No. Um,

no. Uh, is it cake? I will go on that show. That's my type of flavor. That is. And then the last cheesy question I have to ask. I'd be remiss if I didn't ask about the Cribs episode. I'm sure you've talked about it forever. It's the most iconic Cribs episode ever. Anyone who talks about Cribs will talk about your episode. And if you could just in a nutshell explain how that came about. It's the best cribs episode of all time. As it should because uh here's the thing. At the time they were renting out houses for everyone. And I used to wonder how in the [ __ ] uh uh everyone house was the same. Clean, refrigerated clean, uh you know, no no anything. It

wasn't it wasn't in character. Um, and when they asked me, first thing they said, okay, you're going to do the show? Yeah, we got a house for you. And I was like, yeah, we got a house.
