Redman is super proud to announce he’s now a licensed skydiver — revealing he crammed hard to pass his written exam and now has 27 jumps under his belt.
The veteran rap star was out in Houston at an undisclosed film location when he earned his sky stripes … thanking New Jersey-based Skydive Sussex and Skydive Spaceland Houston for the education and experiences.
Several of Red’s hip hop peers — Cam’ron, Busta Rhymes, The LOX’s Sheek Louch, saluted his airtight accomplishment and Ja Rule made a grand revelation that he had 23 jumps to date.
Maybe the two former Def Jam Records collaborators could do face-off in a daredevil Verzuz?!
Apparently, Red’s been at this for a while, too. Someone managed to dig up a magazine shoot from 1997 where he was higher than the birds he was flipping off.

In a separate video, Red spoke on cherishing the little treasures ahead of the bigger rewards and seems to be in good spirits.
His long-awaited “Muddy Waters 2” album is said to be finished and he’s set to headline a “Goats of Cannabis” concert later this month.
In 2022 … staying grounded has new meaning for Redman!
