Redman's solo career continued throughout the remainder of the decade, with each of his albums selling at least half a million copies. His musical style has remained very consistent, rarely deviating from a combination of Redman's unique braggadocious wit and hard, P-funk-influenced beats. In addition to releasing albums under his own name, he is part of the group Def Squad (along with Keith Murray and Erick Sermon) with whom he released the 1998 album El Nino, and also has formed a close partnership with labelmate Method Man (of the Wu-Tang Clan) with whom he released the 1999 album Blackout!. The long-awaited follow-up, Blackout! 2, apeared in 2009.
He has also collaborated extensively, both with hip-hop artists and with artists from other genres; the long list of artists and groups he has worked with includes Wyclef Jean, Snoop Dogg, Scarface, The Offspring, Christina Aguilera, Eminem, Gorillaz, D'Angelo, Me'shell Ndegeocello, 2Pac, Jodeci, Cypress Hill, De La Soul, KRS One and IAM.
In 2001 Redman co-starred with Method Man in the stoner comedy film How High, which featured the pair playing two marijuana-addled students attempting to survive at Harvard. Method Man and Redman also appear in the Def Jam Vendetta video game series, often as Tag Team partners, and briefly had their own television sitcom, Method & Red, on Fox during the 2004-2005 season.
Redman is also featured on the video game "True Crime: New York City", in which the central character interacts with an undercover street cop based upon the rap star, who also provides the voice for him.

Redman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My brain is high like Newark New Jersey do car thefts
I'm high when I sag my 2 Black Guys
I would be brief but my Karl Kani's didn't dry
I smoke the blunt for all you underground chumps
My smoke bangs like it's freshly picked from the swamps
So nigga how you roll a blunt? Aiyyo how you roll a blunt
Flip the script on some other shit like how you roll a cunt
Then I'll be back for me, I'm Sure, like Al B.
Go Uptown, smoke quarter-pounds at the Dungeon
Keith Murray meets me at the spot with the Bom-Ba
Go back to Jerz and smoke with Diezel Don
Huh, pick up a bag from my block, two-oh's the number
Who can get swift with the microphone mist
Plus I'm crisp like CD's on LP's in 3D
My funk respect it, cosmic injected
That cause me to Set It Off just like that club record
Hit it from the back, stay strapped like two packs of lubricants
It's gonna hurt, no it's not a gat experience
The funk dweller, creeps through your cellar
And if your moms don't know your ass better tell her, like this y'all
There's a million and one blunt spots all over the world
That got good herb for all you boys and girls
Which one do you go to? *many shouts*
Which one do you go to? *many shouts*
I'm packin buddha by the pounds and pull my Phillies from knapsacks
Hey yo I didn't know your nickel bags come that fat
Yo check it, my lyrics strip the track butt-naked
Catch the Local to the A to the buddha to my vocals
And I, set the world on fire
Get a billion people higher, from just one blunt in my cypher
You swore to God you was mixed in bom-ba-zee
The rhymer Bombs Squads and MC's like Hank Shocklee
I spend a knot at all the buddha spots
From fifteen to fifty-fifth I ran all through the blocks
I set it off jock, I light a blunt for my nigga D
That's doin three pack, now where I get the hash at
You can't fuck with my funk cause my funk is kinda abstract
Past that, I'm rough like McGruff on dust
There's a million and one blunt spots in America
Yeah I'm tellin ya
Now just throw your blunts up in the motherfuckin air
Smoked out with niggaz from North Newark to Montclair
I rip the nouns from antonyms to synonyms
'Cause I got soul like James Brown and rock M&M
One of the America's Most Blunted
Smoked out with MC Eiht and Compton Most Wanted
Ninety degrees, smoke with L.O.D. on the Island
Then back to Stat, to smoke more packs with the Shaolin
I showed the women how to roll a blunt stronger
But it didn't work, because they Lee nails got longer
But the weed is good for when you're mackin
And girls can front it off like they don't know shit that happened
I know what happened, I told her, BACK, NICK that motherfucker
So check!
My stamina, your ass couldn't snap with cameras
Leave you on your back like Godzill did Gamera
Props on blocks smokin the choc and what-nots
I might catch a nickel bag sale from bus stops
The lyrics to Redman's "A Million and 1 Buddah Spots" describe his love for marijuana and the different spots he goes to get it. He paints a vivid picture of walking down the streets with his hand on his black tec while his brain is high like a person committing car thefts in Newark, New Jersey. He boasts about smoking blunts that bang like they're freshly picked from the swamps and challenges others to try rolling a blunt like he does. He brags about smoking Maui and hanging out with Keith Murray in the Dungeon before going back to Jerz to smoke with Diezel Don. Redman also shows off his skills as a rapper, finishing off his verse by claiming that his funk is cosmic injected, and when he sets it off, it's like a club record.
The chorus of the song talks about how there are a million and one blunt spots all over the world, each with good herb for boys and girls. Redman asks which spot you go to and proudly claims that he's packing buddha by the pounds, pulling his Phillies from knapsacks. He goes on to talk about how he's smoked with MC Eiht and Compton Most Wanted, and how he's shown women how to roll a blunt stronger, but their long nails typically prevent them from doing it.
Line by Line Meaning
Still walkin down the streets with my hand on my black tec
I'm walking down the streets with my gun in my hand
My brain is high like Newark New Jersey do car thefts
I'm high as a kite
I'm high when I sag my 2 Black Guys
I feel even higher when I wear my pants low
I would be brief but my Karl Kani's didn't dry
I would keep it short, but my pants are wet
I smoke the blunt for all you underground chumps
I'm smoking weed for all the people who love underground rap
My smoke bangs like it's freshly picked from the swamps
My weed smoke is strong and fresh
So nigga how you roll a blunt? Aiyyo how you roll a blunt
Do you know how to roll a blunt?
Flip the script on some other shit like how you roll a cunt
Let's talk about something else, like how you treat women
Now, I smoke the Maui, wow-wee
Now, I'm smoking high-quality weed called Maui Wowwee
Then I'll be back for me, I'm Sure, like Al B.
I'll come back to smoke more weed later, just like Al B. Sure sings 'I'm Sure'
Go Uptown, smoke quarter-pounds at the Dungeon
I go uptown and smoke a lot of weed at the Dungeon
Keith Murray meets me at the spot with the Bom-Ba
Keith Murray brings me some more weed
Go back to Jerz and smoke with Diezel Don
I go back to Jersey and smoke weed with Diezel Don
Huh, pick up a bag from my block, two-oh's the number
I buy weed from my neighborhood, and it costs $20
Who can get swift with the microphone mist
Who can rap really well?
Plus I'm crisp like CD's on LP's in 3D
I'm a great rapper
My funk respect it, cosmic injected
Everyone loves my music, and it's out of this world
That cause me to Set It Off just like that club record
My music is so good that it gets people dancing
Hit it from the back, stay strapped like two packs of lubricants
When having sex, I make sure to use protection
It's gonna hurt, no it's not a gat experience
Having unprotected sex is painful, but not as painful as getting shot
The funk dweller, creeps through your cellar
I'm like a funky ghost, creeping through your house
And if your moms don't know your ass better tell her, like this y'all
If your mother doesn't know what you're up to, you need to tell her
There's a million and one blunt spots all over the world
There are many places to buy weed in the world
That got good herb for all you boys and girls
All the places that sell weed have good quality stuff
Which one do you go to? *many shouts*
Which place do you go to buy weed? [crowd responds]
I'm packin buddha by the pounds and pull my Phillies from knapsacks
I carry a lot of weed with me, and I roll my cigars from my backpack
Hey yo I didn't know your nickel bags come that fat
I didn't know your small bags of weed could be so big
Yo check it, my lyrics strip the track butt-naked
My lyrics are so powerful that they strip the music down to the basics
Catch the Local to the A to the buddha to my vocals
Take the subway to get to my place to smoke weed and listen to my music
And I, set the world on fire
My music and weed get people very excited
Get a billion people higher, from just one blunt in my cypher
I can get a lot of people high with just one joint when we're together
You swore to God you was mixed in bom-ba-zee
You said you were mixed race, but you're not
The rhymer Bombs Squads and MC's like Hank Shocklee
I'm a great rapper, and I'm like Hank Shocklee from the Bomb Squad
I spend a knot at all the buddha spots
I spend a lot of money on weed at all the different spots
From fifteen to fifty-fifth I ran all through the blocks
I traveled through all the blocks to find weed
I set it off jock, I light a blunt for my nigga D
I light a joint for my friend D
That's doin three pack, now where I get the hash at
He's smoking a lot of joints now; I need to find more hash
You can't fuck with my funk cause my funk is kinda abstract
No one can match my unique and creative music style
Past that, I'm rough like McGruff on dust
I'm a tough rapper, like McGruff the Crime Dog on drugs
There's a million and one blunt spots in America
There are many places to buy weed in America
Now just throw your blunts up in the motherfuckin air
Hold your joints high in the air
Smoked out with niggaz from North Newark to Montclair
I'm smoking weed with my friends from all over the area
I rip the nouns from antonyms to synonyms
I can use any kind of words in my rhymes
'Cause I got soul like James Brown and rock M&M
I have the soul of James Brown and the rock of Eminem
One of the America's Most Blunted
One of the most stoned people in America
Smoked out with MC Eiht and Compton Most Wanted
I'm smoking weed with famous rappers MC Eiht and Compton Most Wanted
Ninety degrees, smoke with L.O.D. on the Island
It's hot outside; I'm smoking weed with L.O.D. on the Island
Then back to Stat, to smoke more packs with the Shaolin
I go back to my neighborhood to smoke more joints with my friends from Shaolin (Staten Island)
I showed the women how to roll a blunt stronger
I taught the girls how to roll a joint better
But it didn't work, because their nails got longer
It didn't work because their long nails got in the way
But the weed is good for when you're mackin
Weed is great when you're flirting with someone
And girls can front it off like they don't know shit that happened
Girls can pretend they don't remember what happened
I know what happened, I told her, BACK, NICK that motherfucker
I remember what happened; I told her to back away from a bad situation
So check!
So listen up!
My stamina, your ass couldn't snap with cameras
I have a lot of energy, and you couldn't keep up with me even if you had a camera
Leave you on your back like Godzill did Gamera
I'll leave you lying on your back like Godzilla did to Gamera
Props on blocks smokin the choc and what-nots
I get respect in the neighborhood for smoking good weed
I might catch a nickel bag sale from bus stops
I might buy a cheap bag of weed from someone selling it on the street
