Redman Talks About His Relationship With Method Man
When one hears the names of Redman and Method Man the first things that probably comes into mind is their 2001 film ‘How High’ or just a variety of Hip Hop classics they created under the bond of brotherhood by shared common interests.
On a recent interview with Take It Personal Radio hosts DJ 360 and Philaflava – Redman spoke about how the partnership and the relationship came about dating back from the 90’s.
“Honestly I gotta commend Def Jam for that move because at that time me and Meth was putting out material, and it was kind of Def Jam saying, ‘You know what, let’s put these guys on the road,'” he said. “‘Let’s put them on the road and make a big promotion, “Month of the Man.'”‘ That was one of the most well-known promotions in hip hop during the ’90s, was the “Month of the Man.” It happened business-wise through Def Jam, but organically it happened with Red and Meth as individuals.”
“It was up to us, organically, to make the Red and Meth brand happen because it could’ve went another way,” he continued. “It could’ve went like, ‘Alright, I ain’t fckin’ with this ngga or I ain’t fckin’ with this ngga,’ and we could’ve just went on about our business after that promo tour. But after that promo tour, I threw them beats on and we literally connected through the music organically, and we came back home like real good friends and ready to say, ‘You know what? Let’s do an album,” said Redman.
