not gonna lie, and please don't hate me for this, this is just an opinion, but he kinda reminds me of tupac. no one could be tupac, but he reminds me alot of him.
will it ever stop with the lil' wayne comparisons??...its not even a secret that most underground cats could stomp out any mainstreamer...this is a whole other level of music were dealing with...wayne gets money..thats his thing..he knows what sells..he's probably sitting on top of a pile of money right now writing a song about haters or lollipops or whatever the fuck..it doesnt matter..he's not Ras,he's not Wu,he's not Black Moon,he's not Mos,he's not KRS...and he doesnt care....pile of money..
@speakphoenix You're pretty much right. It's not about talent, it's about the sells generated by the big companies. Listen to Ras Kass- Behind the Musick, to hear what he has to say about it. A video I made, BTW.
@trooperjoe73 Naww See u got it twisted, ITs YOU, WHO care about record skills, A real Hiphop head, Dont care about what money cars, or what ever ealse u have, Its about the talent u have
Man, I dunno about you guys but ras kass fell off hard, compared to where he was in the mid to late 90's... his lyrics since then have been week as hell compared to his old stuff.
Ras got the back bone and futuristic style that will carry on the battle/struggle rap into the new ages... He's a veteran but still he sounds hungry, that's why he's the greatest!
This is what should have been promoted in the west I was stuck on Nasir Jones, Lin Que, KRS-one, MC Lyte, Poor righteous teachers.........Special Ed; then I recalled the west had Ras Kass it strange how people were on a Snoop tip, 'cause Kass like the fore mentioned is an MC. Some things best left for discovery like the true history of Africa.
this is jus one of MANY songs that makes ras kass one of hiphops greats and a unrecognised world icon.. no fukin ?'s bout it...love from dublin, ireland to carson, cali!
Ras Kass is the lyrical svaiour, Hes what the DOC would have been had he still got his voice, Check out a bit of our own Notts, English Hip Hop we respect the masters
Well, great work! Awesome beat, I checked out your myspace. That transistorfist sound good. Will have to grab it. This is definitely one of my favorite Ras Kass beats/songs!
This is one of Ras' greatest, but I think all his songs are dop :)

Any black man who becomes muslim, but fails to read what the koran says about his own people, dishonours himself
and the whole of the black race, and furthemore helps devalue the pain of 1000 years of Arab slavery that continues to the present day.
Islam is already destroying Africa, and will destroy the west too.
If a black man accepts islam, he does black people an injustice, because his life is based on a fantasy invented by the very people who enslaved us.
We have been well warned.
