Synopsis

Redman fronts a high-energy performance video built around the loose, irreverent spirit of "Da Goodness." He delivers his verses straight to camera while the clip moves through lively group scenes, dance-focused moments, and fast-cut visual punctuation. The presentation emphasizes Redman's animated personality and playful bravado rather than following a detailed narrative, matching the track's party-minded hook and hard-hitting late-1990s hip-hop production.

Factoids & Trivia

  • "Da Goodness" was released as the second single from Redman's fourth album, "Doc's da Name 2000," on January 12, 1999.
  • The song is generally credited as Redman featuring Busta Rhymes, not Method Man. Busta appears on the album version, while his verse was omitted from the radio edit and the music video.
  • Redman produced the track and built its musical foundation around an interpolation of "Caravan," written by Duke Ellington, Juan Tizol, and Irving Mills.
  • The single reached No. 9 on the US Hot Rap Songs chart and No. 5 on both the UK Dance Singles Chart and the UK Hip Hop/R&B Singles Chart.
  • The video is shorter than the 4:09 album version, reflecting the edited presentation prepared for music television.
  • The song later lent its name to a Barbadian soca riddim, released as the "Redman/Da Goodness Riddim" in 1999.

Lyrics

[Redman]
Yo, bless the steel, step out dressed to kill
Spark the L, "Whattup Doc?" What the deal?
Clock the squeal, the MC overkill
Certified cylinders 35 mil'
Jumpin out planes, Doc's Da Name
Cock the flame, back to delete the pain
Hater, IKSRFO, don't Piscapo
Hit the safe for cake, shoulda switched to coal
Nigga, sneak a pound through custom drug hounds
Bound to rob your neighborhood Walbaums
Me and my man jumpin out Sedans
Tappin your jaw, like Sugar Ray did Duran
