The first single from my upcoming solo album on my new label Best Kept Recordings is now streaming on all platforms! I’m super excited about this one! This track is all energy. Three distinct parts that kick off what I consider to be my best work to date. I’ve learned so much making the album. This album is very much my critique of the current state of things. Technology is far more advanced than we are in this current state. We just do our best to keep up. We can’t. All we can do is adapt. We keep falling short. So….. That being said?

My solo album is titled “De Las Maquinas” (of the machines) because everything is. I have my own thoughts on it all, but I’m letting the music say it all for me. Once again, I am thankful for anyone who finds themself along this journey. I appreciate and value you all. Much more to say, but for now, go listen to the single and let me know what you think in the comments. I’m excited to see what you all think/feel. 🖤

"Smoke Detectors" Theory Feat: C-Ray × Playboy the Beast × Killa Capone

"Look What This World Did To Us." The command is rhetorical. You're already aware of the echo, the generational discontent and alienation, the whispered and denied calls for absolution. No need to look around, just check your bank account and sigh-or echo Biggie and scream, "fuck the world." 

Or melt into the couch and absorb Red Pill's debut for Mello Music Group-a novel disguised as an album, a surly hymn from poisoned lungs. It's a confirmation of what John Cage once declared: "all great art is a form of complaint." 

Or maybe the better comparison is Bukowski, memorializing the "broken factory windows of emptiness." That makes more sense in Ferndale, Michigan where Red Pill calls home. After college graduation, "Leonard Letdown" started working at a machine shop. A temporary gig turned into a labor daze. The dream of converting music into rent money seemed more elusive by the day. 

Depression compounded. The empty packs of cigarettes turned into cellophane towers. The whiskey mixed with an absence of hope. This album is a signal flare, an escape route, and catharsis. This isn't just hip-hop, this is an attempt to distill the disillusion and cure the hangover. It's both a brilliant mission statement and a jazzy funeral for what was promised but never delivered. 

This is for those who played by the rules only to discover that the game was rigged. This is a toast for those entering their late 20s and still acting like adolescents. It's an anti-Valentine to marriage and mortgages. It offers empathy for those buried under student loan and credit card debt, but who refuse to sink. Even if the smoke rings appear like nooses, this is an artful rebuttal to the nihilism. 

Your favorite song will be determined by what theme you relate to most. Look What This World Did To Us is in league with the best of early Atmosphere or Open Mike Eagle's Dark Comedy, a modern hustle of machinery and migraines. A commemoration of going a quarter century without a foundation and an acknowledgement of the nerves that accompany a future built atop fault lines. These are the late night conversations you have with your friends. The idle nights and empty bottles, the hard questions that come after you realize the world might not be yours.

Redman and longtime collaborator Mr. Cream team up with acclaimed producer Mr. Green for a fiery new single, “Hip-Hop 2020.” The track is an extended metaphorical piece that reimagines hip-hop as a living and breathing person on life support, with both Cream and the iconic Funk Doc showing their love and appreciation for their fallen brethren. It’s a stirring take on saving the culture while also acknowledging the greats, which includes shout outs to Nas, De La Soul, KRS-One, and other legendary acts. “Hip-Hop 2020” is available now through all major digital retailers and streaming platforms via Cruddyville Ent./4Dfoundation.
