Director: Adam F. Arranger: Adam F. He's back again. With help from such luminaries as Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliot, Method Man, and none other than the venerable but no less crazy George Clinton on the Parliament-influenced hip-hop shopping list of "J.U.M.P." Redman takes us all on yet another frantic excursion through steel-rimmed beats, spare backing tracks, and most of all, his irrepressible rhyming sensibilities. Redman's first outing since DOC'S THE NAME is heavier in subject matter than that skit-filled collection. From the cheerful Cockney chappie (!) intro of "Roller Coaster," where the ride betrays a suspicious similarity to a prison lockdown, to the grainy "Real Niggaz," the erstwhile Reggie Noble heads for the hip-hop jugular with a set of hard rhymes guaranteed to move all but the most dyed-in-the-wool hip-hop haters.

Discovered by EPMD's Erick Sermon in the early 1990s, rapper Redman quickly established himself as one of the most original and outrageous personalities in hip-hop. The man born Reggie Noble truly shook up the scene with his '92 debut, WHAT? THEE ALBUM--a torrential out-powering of blunted, schizophrenic party jams that looked to P-funk for grooves and the darkest sectors of the id for lyrical inspiration. A steady string of albums followed, as well as several "high"-profile collaborations on the big screen and in the studio with Method Man as hip-hop's answer to Cheech and Chong. While some critics derided Redman for losing his step in the early '00s, he returned strong on 2007's REDMAN GONE WILD.
