The rapper and actor Redman was born Reginald Noble in New York in 1970. In addition to his solo career, he is a member of Def Squad and has had successful collaborations with Method Man and Christina Aguilera.
His debut album Whut? Thee Album, a blend of funk and reggae influences, went on to gold sales and earned him The Source magazine's Rap Artist of the Year tag. The follow-up, although well received by critics, failed to sell as well as his debut. He hit form again with Muddy Waters, promoted by "Whateva Man" and "It's Like That (My Big Brother)", and the album achieved gold sales.
Redman is a member of Def Squad, along with Keith Murray, Erick Sermon and Mally G. They released El Niño and Def Squad presents Erick Onasis, of which El Niño was the more successful. Redman collaborated with Wu-Tang Clan member Method Man for the platinum-selling Blackout!. He also worked with Christina Aguilera on her track "Dirrty", and although it was more popular outside the US, it earned them a Grammy nomination for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals.
Redman's acting credits include the stoner comedy How High, in which he and Method Man star. They are said to be working on a sequel.
