Keith Murray sat down for an interview where he revealed that Redman tried to advise him not to work with Canibus.
But he didn’t listen
“Canibus just made it so difficult at the end of the day,” Redman said of the pair’s In Gods We Trust: Crush Microphones to Dust album. The “I was just like, ‘ugh!’ We had the opportunity to make it, and I was working on an album. So, when you see those tracks that say, ‘Produced by Erick Sermon,’ they were originally going to go to [me], but I gave them up.”
Murray soon realized he should have listened to his friend.
Redman continued, “But then, the album suffered. It was my brainchild. My baby. But then Canibus…not talking bad about him…but he didn’t follow through with promoting the album properly. And then he was getting into it with the publicist. It was a classic album, but we didn’t do no shows for this. No promotion. I was like, ‘Oh my god.’ And then Redman…that n-gga was like, ‘Be careful,’ and I didn’t know what he was talking about then, damn.”
