Along with Scarface, I think Redman is another rapper that is not given the proper shine for the trail he blazed. The personality and energy that Reggie has on display on this album has never been matched. I never heard anything like "Time 4 Sum Aksion" before and that record still is one of the best hip-hop singles ever. He was the first rapper that made hardcore rap funny. Ludacris and Eminem both created their own respective lanes, but there's no denying the influence that Redman had on both of their styles. Eric Sermon's production is superb on Whut? as well. And last, but not least, even with Red's outgoing personality- he doesn't compromise lyrical quality. In summary, this album is incredible. A certified hip-hop classic.
