Speaking of delayed albums (see today’s feature from Ski Beatz). We featured Coc Back, the first record off Redman’s upcoming album, way back in October of ’09, and since then the project’s seen more changes than Heidi Montag’s face. Why the delay? I have no idea, but if the Brick City emcee’s new single Fly is any indication, Red’s on the hunt for a radio hit. Unlike the relentlessly grimy fare Red’s usually known for, Fly is, shockingly, not a reference to how high the man is, but rather his swaggerish appearance. Producer !llmind, who’s also usually known for far less polished fare like Speakers on Blast, provides the synth-centered beat, and Red responds with verses that are far more money hungry, and yes, auto-tuned, than long time fans are used to hearing from a man who once showed off his frat-house-dirty house on the greatest episode of Cribs ever. But maybe it’s just me; does Redman have a hit on his hands DJBooth members? Regardless, hopefully his forthcoming album Reggie will finally see the light of day on December 7.

Fly? Shouldh've been called "Why?". Not that great, but not unbearable.

This isn’t great but it isn’t as bad as other members make out.

I don't want to pigeonhole Red, or not let him take a shot at a radio hit, but this just isn't who he is and it sounds forced. Leave the swag at home next time Doc .

..... This song hurts.
Its not bad- (or rather it wouldn't be)if this wasn't Redman. The only saving grace it has is that Red hasn't come out with anything much lately, so you don't have anything to compare it to. Go listen to Redman and Meth, or Red and busta on busta's "the coming" album. (Flipmde meets Def Squad) That redman would have beat this redman's ass for the autotune alone.. |

OHHH MY STARRSSSS people change.. I been a Redman fan since i was like 14, im 26 now, and this song goes so hard. it doesn't sound forced. it sounds like Redman has done what any artist or HUMAN is suppose do, HE CHANGED. if people wanted to hear old redman, go play muddy waters. he is like 30+ or 40 years old, is he suppose to be talking about getting head and weed like he did in the 90s? I'll wait? thats called be redundant
