Overview Edit

Doc's da Name 2000 is the fourth studio album by American rapper Redman. It was a top seller, shipping platinum in sales and exceeding his previous record of gold. It peaked at #11 on The Billboard 200 and had three songs ("I'll Bee Dat", "Da Goodness", "Let Da Monkey Out") that charted.

New Jersey rapper Tame One is credited for the song "Close Ya Doorz", but the former Artifacts member is not on the song. As Tame One explained in an interview, there was a different version of the song featuring additional verses by him and Rah Digga, but the song didn't make it on the album. The second verse of the song, which is usually attributed to Tame, is in fact sung by Double O. The voice of Nastee Nadj, the reocuuring Redman radio personality is back again doing the skits along with her sister Tanisha Green and friend Anitra Edmond. Nastee Nadj's real name is Nadja Green Parker.

5 stars Fun
Redman just released a fun, funny album. That is good to listen to all the time, any time. "I'll Bee Dat" was one of the funniest songs I've ever heard. "Da Goodness" w/Busta Rhymes has one of the best beats on a song ever. I'm not lying. Redmans flow is just cool as hell. I love the way he raps, it captures you. Everyone needs to buy this album just to feel how good it really is. Best songs:I'll Bee Dat, Da Goodness, I Got A Seecret, Let Da Monkey Out, Jersey Yo!, Well All Rite Cha, Brick City …

3 stars Not his best, but not his worst
You can't blame Redman for wanting to stick with Erick Sermon. The Green-Eyed Bandit is responsible for a unique style of East-Coast production. But lately (well, actually dating back to circa 1998 when this album came out) it's been a little slack.

This is plenty noticeable in many of the tracks on "Doc's Da Name 2000." The same bassline is used on three or four tracks, sometimes in a row. The production is crisp, and leaves plenty of room for Redman to get down, but is somewhat of a letdown.
