"Rated R"?

i don't like the sample as much - it's kind of James Brown shuffle- funk IIRC? - DG has got the tightest beat ever - a single hand- muffled reverbed guitar and kick drum, almost in a dancehall rhythm, like there's two of them in the studio, and then CARAVAN coming in under the chorus, slinky, sly, understated, tight as fuck... and totally irrepressible Redman completely unable to keep it in, unable to live up to this James Bond feel for more than a verse, going "if you feel it in your body shake your stinkin ass!" hahahaha When he goes "ooooooowhee!" he's speaking for you, it's like what you wanted to say right then too

"I'll Be Dat" has the best Redman line EVER, i don't care how popular it got. "my first name must be "fuck you" / cause every time i'm in the hood niggas be like "fuck you!" Let's just change this to YOUR FAVORITE REDMAN LINE EVER

i can't think of a favorite redman line because he's inextricably linked with method man in my mind and i then begin to think about how wonderful meth is

so you listened to Blackout a million times too huh? they're different though, if it was Meth doing "Da Goodness" he'd have kept his cool the whole time and made the piece one complete consistent mood. Redman doesn't know the meaning of restraint so he just freaks out on it. "smoke the fuck out! drink the fuck out! black the fuck out! act the fuck out!" over a CARAVAN sample?? too crayz. Alright if you can't think of any here's one from the same album to kickstartcha:

"Yo I got a back ache, stomach ache, diarrhea, vomiting / Cold feet, runny nose, head ache, insomnia / Cranky, moody, burpin while I'm cursin / Baby chair tied in a Suburban, drinkin' bourbon"
