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 ↴
Mmhmm that shit look like the bomb huh
Oh yeah let you take a puff of that shit and just blow the fuck up
Hahaha nigga blow up boom
That's why your album like
Ah that shit you be doin'
Where the fuck are you coming from?
Who?
You
You know you know that's the first time you ever seen
Me walkin' that way in like sixteen months
Man you crazy, I always see you walkin' through that way
Man I be on a, I be creepin' through the hood
The opening lyrics of Redman's "Boodah Session" depict a conversation between two people who are engaged in smoking marijuana. They note that the substance being smoked is potent and has the potential to cause an explosive reaction when inhaled. Despite this, they find the experience pleasurable and continue smoking. The lyrics then shift to a discussion about the artist's album and his whereabouts. Someone appears surprised to see him walking from a certain direction after several months of absence, but Redman denies it and insists he is always "creeping through the hood."
