For those who don't know, Redman said late last year he would leave DEF JAM now and go over to Shady Records as they're still doing hip-hop...

If you go to around 1.50 in that video you'll hear him speak on it. He also told Em to hit him up for a record. That would be awesome as so far we've only had "Off the Wall".
Has there been any update as far as anybody knows to this situation... I had a look but can't find anything. I don't understand why Em hasn't publicly reached out more... Maybe they've spoke in private I don't know.
But Em is a huge Redman fan, even name-checks him as his #1 in "Till I Collapse" and his influence is obvious throughout Em's music / style. That would be a great move for Shady, Redman would fit right in and they could make some serious hip-hop together before they're both done.
Em signed bums like Ca$his from him sending a demo to their building but doesn't seem too bothered about signing a legend like Red. Odd.
