Redman - Put It Down



Reginald "Reggie" Noble (born April 17, 1970), better known by his stage name Redman, is an American MC and actor. He came to fame in the early 1990s as an artist on the Def Jam label.



He is also well known for his collaborations with Method Man, including their starring roles in films and sitcoms including How High.



This track comes off Red's 6th Solo Album, Red Gone Wild...Thee Album. It was released on March 27, 2007 via Def Jam Recordings and is his sixth solo effort to date and his first since 2001's Malpractice.



Red Gone Wild features production from Erick Sermon, Timbaland, Scott Storch, Pete Rock, Rockwilder, DJ Clark Kent, and many others.

The album had been delayed numerous times by Def Jam and Redman himself, with early promotion dating back to Ghostface Killah's 2004 album, The Pretty Toney Album.



"Put It Down" (produced by Timbaland) with additional vocals by DJ Kool was the first single released off the album.



Alongside Posdnous from De la Soul, Redman is regarded by many as one of the most consistent MCs of the past 2 decades, and was named "Rap Artist of the Year" by The Source in 1992.
