Recorded at Mirror Image Studios West & Sountrack Studios, New York, New York; Mirror Image Studios East, Dix Hills, New York; The Enterprise Recording Studios, Los Angeles, California. True to his mischievous, somewhat outrageous rep, Redman made sure that DOC'S THE NAME was a non-stop party throughout. Not too heavy on serious subject matter, the album is filled with skits, from the mystery of "Who Took The Satellite Van?" to the very politically incorrect "Million Chickenhead March," the tone is manic and the fun is endless. As enjoyable as the skits are, this album is about beats 'n' rhymes, as only Redman can deliver them, along with such inspired musical touches as the funky bassline of "I Don't Kare." Continuing on the party motif, plenty of friends drop by to lend their skills to the effort--"Da Goodness" features the maniacal Busta Rhymes, wild as ever, and labelmate Method Man checks in for "Well All Rite Cha," a dynamic, no-holds-barred team effort.
