Doc's Da Name 2000 (Def Jam, 1998) by Redman

Redman's fourth album brought him to the mainstream as part of Def Jam's big end of the century push with Method Man, Jay-Z, and DMX.  Although not as solid as his first and third albums, Doc's Da Name does deliver some great material.  "I'll Bee Dat!" is a great single, with outstanding production by Rockwilder, and Busta Rhymes and Redman deliver a solid collaboration with "Da Goodness."  My favorite cut on the project though is Redman's cover of Ice Cube's "Once Upon a Time in the Projects" called "Jersey Yo."
