He said Ludacris is a dope rapper...he was on a song with Tio Cruz thats pop and he sold out, Just cause Kanye is a popular artist doesn't mean that hes all "Pop" he does everything non commercial and changes his style and the way rappers rap every time he comes out with an album this R.A. guy is retarded
ummmm.... Im a black doode and i listen to RA Rugged Man haha
This just shows you how uneducated the interviewer is. So you mean that because Lil Wayne sells records that means hes the best in the game?
The doode can barely bust a Freestyle... Mc Hammer can barely bust Free Style...
I always thought Kanye West was more of a pop artist. I still bump his shit from time to time. But I always play his older shit first. He was pretty raw back then... But of course money changes us all...
Aside from Rude Jude, RA was pretty much the joke of the convo. He was trying to make a point on whether Jude was a "real head" or not cause he didn't grow up in the streets in the '80s, but if RA's music reps "the real heads in the streets", who on any street has actually bumped his shit?
I think its always good to listen to the new shit thats out. You definetly want to keep an open mind. RA is right though man! Its not about record sells. Its about doing what you love man. And most of the shit i hear on the radio is garbage. Nobody really puts their heart into man. I mean have you seen Bow Wow??? haha the doode is a joke man! ITs pathetic that these people are considered talented. How you gonna compare Jedi Mind Tricks to Emcee Hammer??? Thats ridiculous!!!! hahaha
dj premier, pete rock, marley marl, large professor, j dilla, madlib even Dr Dre, all shit on Kanye west. and saying that hammer is hip hop, oh boy... right there, you lose all credibility jude.you best to just shut the fuck up.
@PopularityTroll i actually liked his first 3 albums. but as soon as you are featuring with mainstream pop acts like kate perry, 30 second to mars, fall out boy etc... you just cease to be purely hip-hop and become hip-pop. no matter how good you rappin skills are. you wont see kool g rap doing featuring with gwen stefani.
I disagree with how R.A. feels about Pop Rap and Kanye West, but how the fuck is anyone actually capable of defending MC Hammer and calling him a Hardcore emcee? I mean, god damn. Rude Jude is a fucking faggot.
@WestCoastG57 Denying Kanye as an exemplary Hip Hop producer is foolish. He's an ostentatious prick, but his attitude shouldn't change the fact that he's a top producer today, and only few producers in the history of the genre have matched his production. Also, nice insult that was completely unnecessary.
@beezaxe kanye is a good producer but he's not one of the top producers today, that's stupid, he might be one of the highest paid producers today, but as far as talent? there are MANY MANY MANY producers that far surpass kanye in production.
@beezaxe chase moore, sapient, stoupe the enemy of mankind, rjd2, skammadix, necro, ill bill, marco polo, 7L, celph titled, shuko, vanderslice, eom, equalibrum, the alchemist, evidence, khrysis, twiz the beat pro, dj babu, dj premier, pete rock, large professor, dj muggs. do you really want me to go on?
@havellhavelldt I've got respect for Pete Rock, The Alchemist, Muggs, Necro and Ill Bill, but none of the others really come off as great or good to me. The Alchemist has gotten smarmy as fuck lately with that bullshit he's been putting out with Blu. I'm surprised that you didn't mention Blockhead or El-P. What about Buckwild? The 2nd LP from Organized Konfusion bumps harder than almost anything.
@beezaxe you don't have respect for stoupe? or premier? clearly you need to re-evaluate who you respect as a producer, all of those producers i've named shit on kanye. also yeah, so i left out blockhead el-p and buckwild, but i also left out a TON of other producers that shit on kanye. kanye is an overrated rapper and producer.
@havellhavelldt I couldn't care less for Jedi, and Gang Starr got smarmy as hell after Daily Operation. I mean, overrated/underrated is a pretty subjective thing. College Dropout is a great album, even if there is a bit of commercial appropriation on some songs on the album.
@iLLanLeGiT Tronic and Popular Demand are pretty solid records, but I don't think that he's really that great outside of his own records that he puts out. Didn't really care for Album of the Year.
Kanye west isn't a great rapper but he is great artist. R.A could destroy kanye west in a rap battle in 10 seconds BUT kanye's music is much more creative than rugged man's. As well, kanye puts a lot of passion and emotion into his music and I find it a lot easier to relate to Kanye's lyrics than i can with rugged man's lyrics.
I dont listen to Kanye but i think through the wire was sick but for the douche bag from jenny jones "rude jude" to try and play ball with rugged is ignorant.. RA spits the truth
i'm portuguese and in portugal there are a LOT of r.a's fans, as a matter of fact, we judge him as one of the best rappers ever, so what he was saying is true..
btw that jude dude is a fuckin ignorant joke! mc hammer is hard? man you have to have the musical taste of a 11 year old teen girl to say that, geez -.-'
this Jude guys a twat, he has NO idea about hip hop..hes trying to be argumentative for the sake of it.. Kayne West is POP...and to quote IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE "if your message aint shit fuck the records you sold, cos If you go platinum its got nuttin' to do with luck. it just means that a million people are stupid as fuck." point made
dude spills his beans when he breaks out the "your shit isn't selling argument" r.a's fans are a bunch of white skateboarders? even if that were true who gives a fuck what ethnicity and hobby you have, it's the fact that they know good ass hip hop and clowns like this jude guy are radio fed douchebags
@havellhavelldt R.A. has one real album. One shitty street album as Crustified Dibbs and a collection of other tracks. None of those album are over a 7+/10. College Dropout alone, is probably better. I like RA, but his lack of material is pathetic. Kanye's a great producer. If you deny that, you've never listened to CD, LR or MBDTF or you're just trying to be a "real hip-hop fan" which is total nonsense. Waka Flocka Flame is as much hip-hop as Rakim. Waka sucks, Rakim doesn't.
@XanderBBo Discography and numbers are shit, now take it down to skill level and put Kanye West up to R.A. with one mic, one beat and two minutes and I know R.A. would chew him.
@XanderBBo : you just said kaynes discography shits on R.A's. you're fucking stupid. have you even heard RA spit. He did tracks with Biggie, Mobb Deep, Kool G Rap, Vinnie Paz, etc... Anyone who thinks Kayne is true hip hop needs to get off his dick. for real.
@TheColorfulCube Obvious hipster is obvious. Lyrically, he's slightly above average and his production skills are some of the best in the industry. Just listen to Kanye West - Family Business. No, he's not top 30 or anything like that, but he's far from the standards set by Lil Wayne. His discography takes a nice shit on R.A.'s too.
And before you say I don't know anything;
My Last.FM Library(Shows the music I listen to) - last.fm/user/CageQwelBSBD/library
@XanderBBo Kanye sucks compared to what i listen to. I know plenty of new underground artist that shit on him aswell. And discographies? I never judge discographies, that's stupid to compare because some underground rappers have never released an album or just released their first album and they shit all over most others. I judge purely on skills. Doesnt matter what song or album it is, i judge on skills.
@TheColorfulCube Kanye's 1st album > RA's 1st album. RA is far from the most skilled rapper. As for not judging discography, how can you judge an artists consistency. Also, RA couldn't carry a whole album. Most of his work is feature verses, most of which have no real message or concept (With the exception of a few, Uncommon Valor). Inspectah Deck is another artist who dropped dope, guest verses but can you imagine a whole album of Triumph verses? Shit'd be mad boring.
@XanderBBo lol, Im not a big fan of RA but i know he's way better than Kanye in almost every aspect. Knye is weak technically, his flow is slow and it sucks, he is more pop than hip hop. He makes pop autotuned songs and even tried to sing sometimes. He isnt even good. None of his verses compare to "Uncommon Valor" RA destroys Kanye. badly.
@TheColorfulCube 1 verse, that's it. Kanye's albums have a lot more substance than RA's do. His flow is slow, but he rides the beat well. As for autotune, that was pretty much only for 1 album. There was a small bit on MBDTF. Seriously though, listen to College Dropout, or Common's "Be." One of the most soulful hip-hop producers of our time.
@XanderBBo College drop out is a great album and my favorite Kanye album, but try listening to some songs where The Rugged Man is featuring, .... man Not even on the same level, R.A. is a lyrical genius, even Kanye at his best can't touch R.A., as far as subject matter they're on the same level.
@XanderBBo Revel ins has some decent albums, I doubt you'd go mad listening to those, Ye is average imo, there are some artists out there that make him look average as far as subject matter, and I'm a big Ye fan I have his 1st 3 albums, and constantly tell people to check his 1st 3, unfortunately all 3 fall short from classic, True Classic, cause that word gets thrown around too much. People like different music, like to me Gucci Mane, to Shad, to X-Raided, to Gza i'ts all good.
@TRIPLESIXSICCNESS I own every INS album, none of them live up to the potential we see on group albums and feature verses. Glad to hear you like Shad, he's easily one of my favourite rappers. College Dropout is a classic, IMO. The soulful production is easily worthy of the title and he touched on some deep topics too. Have you heard Qwel? He's one of my favourite rappers and he's from Chicago. Listen to Broken Wing & Fourth Reich of the Rich.
@XanderBBo College Drop out would be classic IF, 2 songs were left out and one of those "work out plan", if that song specially got left out, it would be much closer to classic, but it's there, so I wouldn't put in up there with "Hell On Earth", "Liquid Swords", "OB4CLN", "The Infamous", "Illmatic", NO College drop out in Not classic IMO. It has some classic tracks no doubt.
@XanderBBo R.A. has a few verses that put All of kanye's discography to shame, R.A. has some features where he destroys Ye on every verse of his top 3 albums. R.S. is no joke, but Kanye does have some quality music and songs, but Lyrically R.A. has some ATG material.
@Sludgerap He has one real album. One shitty bootleg one and a compilation album. College Dropout > All of them. Yes, R.A. is a better rapper than Kanye, but Kanye makes better music.
@Sludgerap RA is my favorite rapper and is obviously a better MC than Kanye West, but still: Kanye's discography > RA's one studio album and one complication album. He is pop, though.
this Dj is Garbage ..Mc Hammer is not Hip Hop .. RA Is Prob Insulted Just Sitting With dude who has no idea what hes talking about .. just let RA Talk Sense He Clearly knows the difference between hip hop and pussy ass dance music like Hammer
I like kanye's first 2 albums while I'm into JMT, RA the Rugged man, AOTP, Immortal Technique, Canibus that sort of shit but I can definitely appreciate Kanye's (older) music. I wouldn't know if it's hiphop, it's got hiphop elements that's for sure. But really, who the fuck cares? I must say RA makes this DJ look like a dumb fucking cunt although he doesn't need RA for it since the DJ makes himself look like a dick.
hip hop is pop muisc now. no hes retarded r.a is by far the more intelligent man in this arguement, tht other buddy's dumb if he thinks mc hammer! is hip hop. i laugh
RA is perfectly in tune with every aspect of the current state of hiphop. This radio dude reminds me of some regular clown ive argued with over shit... fucker dont know dick yo... you can tell... how the fuck do clowns like that get radio jobs????
dude are you fucing kidding me?! MC HAMMER?! WTF! mc hammer is a fucken joke. that shit was bummble gum shit. i definatley made me tap my foot. but he was not a top of the line emcee
@ImaazeDa3th I feel you, but I must say I like a lot of kanye's song but I don't think how much an album sold determines if it's hiphop or not. I think biggie was hiphop 100% and he sold a lot of records.
Jude needs to go bite a pillow. I'm willing to bet this tard spins with two discmans and some airplane headphones. RA is damn hip-hop legend! It's common knowledge that some of the best unsigned rappers come from all sorts of backgrounds and locations. Even the French kill microphones. I hope Jude makes like David Carradine, gets some rope, and finds a small closet to end it all.
this Jude guy is TRYING to just be argumentative he comes across as a total douche here. Rugged knows his shit, he has an encyclopaedic knowledge of hiphop
I don't care what Jude says about lyrical rappers not selling, I purchased just about 300 CD's over the past 8 months & the only people that I purchased are lyrical artists. I purchased both of RA's albums, Legendary Classics Volume 1 & Die Rugged Man Die! I support good artists & I could care less about bad artists & refuse to put any money is a shitty artist's hands.
mc hammer is hip hop?? thats like saying george bush was a real president ha ha, mad respect to RA for being the dopest underrated emcee alive, and kanye u know ur a fuckin homo i just wish these other clones would see it too
That radio host was retarded also. You can't have an argument when both people are yellin' at each other. MC Hammer was ALWAYS WHACK though. Kanye West is a talented individual and made one of the best produced Hip Hop albums of all-time, "Late Registration". I'm an old school head also and Kanye has become an acquired taste of mine.
Honestly i'm a huge fan of r.a the rugged man and kanye west. I agree that kanye is pop music but he's still very still talented. Rugged man is the best rapper alive though.
to quote KRS-One one of the foremost authority on hip hop "an MC is a representative of hip hop. A rapper is the respresentative of corporate interest. A MC can be a rapper but a rapper will never be a mc" & u should read the book 'Art of Emceeing' by Dead Prez to quote "a rapper is to a MC what an average street fighter is to a trained martial artist. both are fighters but the degree and depth of skill is very different"
Very unbalanced interview.. some scrub trying to talk about hip hop with RA is like knowing shit about cars trying to argue with a car mechanic on why it won't run..
RA is fucking hilarious, Jude sounds like such a dumb whining fucking bitch. Who the fuck is he to talk about hip-hop on radio show? some loser from the old Jenny Jones show, canceled 10 years ago, wow. Rugged Man never showed any biased for only NY hip-hop, so i don't get why Rudy Judy kept saying that over and over.
"so was Hammer ya dumb fuck" lmao
"you grew up on 'Ice Baby'" LOL
"ah ah i had my Hammer it's hard, hard, Hammer hard" ROFL.
This is mad funny, lol. But they weren't clear about their points and this wasn't a good debate. I mean, a bad rapper is still a rapper and that's probably what Jude was going for, while R.A. was saying that a mainstream rapper is a bad rapper. So they're both right. They also didn't make clear what they mean by Hip-Hop. Did they mean the culture or as a synonym for rap music? Cause one person can't be a culture, culture is an abstract thing.
@MakRapLifestyle But given the culture of Hip-Hop, you can represent one (or more) elements, so by being an MC Kanye is Hip-Hop. And to make it clear, I don't care if an MC is mainstream or not. There is only good and bad music/MC. Therefore, Kanye, Em, Jay-Z and others Are dope to me. But as I said, both RA and Jude are right, it's just that they didn't come off in a clear way.
@MakRapLifestyle I think what RA was saying is Kanye isn't an Emcee but rather he's a rapper and there's a difference between the two. All emcees can rap but not all who rap are emcees like Diddy & Kanye & Timbaland they're producers who rap. The Emcee is an art form. just cause you rap doesn't make it hip hop. not all rap is hip hop
i agree with jude most of the time....but rugged was speaking the truth on this one...

@TheColorfulCube Obvious hipster is obvious. Lyrically, he's slightly above average and his production skills are some of the best in the industry. Just listen to Kanye West - Family Business. No, he's not top 30 or anything like that, but he's far from the standards set by Lil Wayne. His discography takes a nice shit on R.A.'s too.
And before you say I don't know anything;

@XanderBBo Kanye sucks compared to what i listen to. I know plenty of new underground artist that shit on him aswell. And discographies? I never judge discographies, that's stupid to compare because some underground rappers have never released an album or just released their first album and they shit all over most others. I judge purely on skills. Doesnt matter what song or album it is, i judge on skills.
TheColorfulCube 4 months ago
@TheColorfulCube Kanye's 1st album > RA's 1st album. RA is far from the most skilled rapper. As for not judging discography, how can you judge an artists consistency. Also, RA couldn't carry a whole album. Most of his work is feature verses, most of which have no real message or concept (With the exception of a few, Uncommon Valor). Inspectah Deck is another artist who dropped dope, guest verses but can you imagine a whole album of Triumph verses? Shit'd be mad boring.

@XanderBBo lol, Im not a big fan of RA but i know he's way better than Kanye in almost every aspect. Knye is weak technically, his flow is slow and it sucks, he is more pop than hip hop. He makes pop autotuned songs and even tried to sing sometimes. He isnt even good. None of his verses compare to "Uncommon Valor" RA destroys Kanye. badly.
TheColorfulCube 4 months ago
@TheColorfulCube 1 verse, that's it. Kanye's albums have a lot more substance than RA's do. His flow is slow, but he rides the beat well. As for autotune, that was pretty much only for 1 album. There was a small bit on MBDTF. Seriously though, listen to College Dropout, or Common's "Be." One of the most soulful hip-hop producers of our time.
XanderBBo 4 months ago
@XanderBBo College drop out is a great album and my favorite Kanye album, but try listening to some songs where The Rugged Man is featuring, .... man Not even on the same level, R.A. is a lyrical genius, even Kanye at his best can't touch R.A., as far as subject matter they're on the same level.

@XanderBBo Revel ins has some decent albums, I doubt you'd go mad listening to those, Ye is average imo, there are some artists out there that make him look average as far as subject matter, and I'm a big Ye fan I have his 1st 3 albums, and constantly tell people to check his 1st 3, unfortunately all 3 fall short from classic, True Classic, cause that word gets thrown around too much. People like different music, like to me Gucci Mane, to Shad, to X-Raided, to Gza i'ts all good.
TRIPLESIXSICCNESS 3 months ago
@TRIPLESIXSICCNESS I own every INS album, none of them live up to the potential we see on group albums and feature verses. Glad to hear you like Shad, he's easily one of my favourite rappers. College Dropout is a classic, IMO. The soulful production is easily worthy of the title and he touched on some deep topics too. Have you heard Qwel? He's one of my favourite rappers and he's from Chicago. Listen to Broken Wing & Fourth Reich of the Rich.
XanderBBo 3 months ago
@XanderBBo College Drop out would be classic IF, 2 songs were left out and one of those "work out plan", if that song specially got left out, it would be much closer to classic, but it's there, so I wouldn't put in up there with "Hell On Earth", "Liquid Swords", "OB4CLN", "The Infamous", "Illmatic", NO College drop out in Not classic IMO. It has some classic tracks no doubt.
TRIPLESIXSICCNESS 3 months ago
@XanderBBo R.A. has a few verses that put All of kanye's discography to shame, R.A. has some features where he destroys Ye on every verse of his top 3 albums. R.S. is no joke, but Kanye does have some quality music and songs, but Lyrically R.A. has some ATG material.

I wouldn't know if it's hiphop, it's got hiphop elements that's for sure. But really, who the fuck cares? I must say RA makes this DJ look like a dumb fucking cunt although he doesn't need RA for it since the DJ makes himself look like a dick.

Jude needs to go bite a pillow. I'm willing to bet this tard spins with two discmans and some airplane headphones. RA is damn hip-hop legend! It's common knowledge that some of the best unsigned rappers come from all sorts of backgrounds and locations. Even the French kill microphones. I hope Jude makes like David Carradine, gets some rope, and finds a small closet to end it all.

That radio host was retarded also. You can't have an argument when both people are yellin' at each other. MC Hammer was ALWAYS WHACK though. Kanye West is a talented individual and made one of the best produced Hip Hop albums of all-time, "Late Registration". I'm an old school head also and Kanye has become an acquired taste of mine.

This is mad funny, lol. But they weren't clear about their points and this wasn't a good debate. I mean, a bad rapper is still a rapper and that's probably what Jude was going for, while R.A. was saying that a mainstream rapper is a bad rapper. So they're both right. They also didn't make clear what they mean by Hip-Hop. Did they mean the culture or as a synonym for rap music? Cause one person can't be a culture, culture is an abstract thing.
MakRapLifestyle 1 year ago
@MakRapLifestyle But given the culture of Hip-Hop, you can represent one (or more) elements, so by being an MC Kanye is Hip-Hop. And to make it clear, I don't care if an MC is mainstream or not. There is only good and bad music/MC. Therefore, Kanye, Em, Jay-Z and others Are dope to me. But as I said, both RA and Jude are right, it's just that they didn't come off in a clear way.
MakRapLifestyle 1 year ago
@MakRapLifestyle I think what RA was saying is Kanye isn't an Emcee but rather he's a rapper and there's a difference between the two. All emcees can rap but not all who rap are emcees like Diddy & Kanye & Timbaland they're producers who rap. The Emcee is an art form. just cause you rap doesn't make it hip hop. not all rap is hip hop
