Redman - Money on My Mind
Artist: Redman
Producer: Chris "Max" Pinset [for Death House Prod.]
Album: Reggie
Label: Gillahouse/Def Jam
I just got done name-dropping Pink Floyd in my review of J The S’ Wish You Were Here, and now I find Redman sampling the stoner favorites’ Money in his latest single – could it be a message from the divine? Uh, probably not. In any case, the Dark Side of the Moon classic’s iconic sound-effects are a perfect fit for Money on My Mind, the latest single off the Def Squad alum’s seventh solo album. Backed by Chris “Max” Pinset‘s bass-heavy, slow-rolling boardwork, Red expresses his affection for the Almighty Dollar, beautiful women and huge rims (in that order). Though the themes are as old as time itself, Red’s allusive rhymes don’t disappoint – here, the veteran emcee works everyone from Sade to Michael Jai White into his blunted verses. Red’s Reggie LP (formerly known as Reggie Noble “0” 9 ½) has been pushed back from March 30 to a yet-unannounced date this summer, but those disappointed can take comfort in the fact that the emcee will be contributing to our exclusive freestyle series before spring’s end – as always, keep it locked!

Fact: 9 out of 10 emcees submitting a record with the title "Money on My Mind" would be turned away from DJBooth with a "hell no" response. Only Redman would take a boring/stale topic and turn it into a dope record with a Pink Floyd sample (credit to Max for the flip).
The only weak link here is the marginal hook. Otherwise this is dope. "I'm on Tour, n*gga / You're on Facebook." Haha |

Lyrically this is stupendously brilliant. The hook is weak, and the production doesn't grab my attention. This would make a great freestyle.

The 149th might have a point, this does have more of a freestyle feel than an album single feel. Still, I don't think I've ever not enjoyed Redman, he's the definition of entertaining.
"Call my chain Tupac, all eyes on it." Come on, that's hilarious. Respect. |

It seems the album is gonna be just decent. And I’m trying best not to judge release on the leaks that are preceding it, but this new material has all been pretty average-ish. Rotation-Stuff.

The lyrics seem like a freestyle but that's just Redman.
This song is laced with the dopelines...ya the chorus is ok. Rating it a 4 to bring up the ranking so people will at listen to it. "I'm like Kentucky, I can show you how to treat a chicken" |

This is all that we need another song about money. Redman’s flow is nice dropping some clean punch lines, however I wish he would have came up with a better theme.
