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.

The song "Chicken Head Convention" by Redman describes a gathering of women who are commonly referred to as "chicken heads" due to their superficial and materialistic nature. The lyrics detail an interview-style conversation between Redman and some of these women, where he asks them about their motivation and reasons for being at the convention. The women speak openly about their love for fashion brands and their tendency to indulge in stealing or "boosting" items from stores. The lyrics also mention the presence of men at the convention, who are often disapproving of the women.
The lyrics of the song highlight the issue of materialism and the beauty standards present in society. It shows how these standards often create a toxic and superficial environment, where people value material possessions over relationships and genuine connections. Furthermore, the song is also a critique of the patriarchal society, which sees women who don't fit into traditional beauty standards as lesser.
