Probally not. Redman is an extremely talented MC, although his albums have always been some what of a let down to me. Far too many skits, and not enough quality songs. I dont like the production on alot of his material either. It's a shame, because I do value him highly as an MC.
I'll be getting it for sure. I'm a big fan of Redman. His rhymes are pretty clever and I like how he uses funk beats. A lot of people don't like how he and Method Man have so many skits, but I don't mind. It showcases their great sense of humour.

They can make more movies if they want to showcase their humour, lol.
I don't like the skits either, but its not a big deal, don't put em on the iPod and they basically don't exist to me so it doesn't take away from the album. I didn't even like the first Redman album I head (I think I might need to go back and review that) but this album is probably a 4/5.
I got it and it's alright. As far as his skits go, this one is classic... Jerry: Here we've got Mercedes and her seven year boyfriend Ray-Ray Row-Row. Ray-Ray: It's Ray-Ray mofucka! The way he delivers that "It's Ray-Ray mofucka" line has me dying to this day.

When I'm listening to a full album, they're fine. Otherwise I'd just download individual tracks.
