Redman has been hailed by many as one of the most lyrical rappers of all-time. Despite being a member of Def Squad, he rose to fame through his partnership with Method Man. The two are respected as one of the top hip hop duos of all-time.

Rap music has been on a rapid decline, according to critics, over the past few years. Many rappers have voiced their opinion on the state of the industry. While he has held his tongue for years, Redman has finally given his opinion.

In the past, many rap songs sampled older music. But, many fans of older music and the people who created it said hip hop was unoriginal. As a result of the criticism, hip hop has focused more on original beats over the past few years.

Redman said hip hop has become anal since they stopped sampling music. He blames the ending of the sampling on the overexposure of hip hop. For years, hip hop has been in the shadows of music, but with the internet revolution, it has risen to the forefront.

For years, Redman has associated himself with Method Man. While they made a legendary duo, Redman was a part of the Def Squad and Method Man was a part of the Wu Tang Clan. Despite two crews being involved, everyone accepted the partnership. The Def Squad has been closely affiliated with the Wu Tang Clan for years.

Recently, however, Def Squad has accepted Method Man as an official member of the crew. In return, Redman confirmed he was now an official member of the Wu Tang Clan. But, after Redman made his confirmation, several online reports denied his claims. Because of the close affiliation, Red said the Wu made things official.

However, Redman has hit back and has called the websites who denied his membership a bunch of haters. Not only is Redman saying he is in the Wu Tang Clan, but Redman said he has been a part of the Wu now for five years. Years before, he was a close associate, wearing the Wu Gear and promoting them when he did his solo projects, but he has been on for years and now plans to push things more heavily.
