[Wonderbread8909]

i made 43 accounts and disliked this video with all of them, just because i'm a menace

[MrCommenterguy]

"I see EPMD break up/ I seen my little brother max fall asleep and he aint never wake up". That lyric always strikes me.

[YouKnowThatYouDont]

RA #1

[soljaboyisabitch]

[Jeromepower4ever]

hahahahah he totally killed 50

-"Even five years old white girls be rappin' today On the playground like ' go shorty, it's ya birthday go go go"

Commercial rap sucks, lucky we have underground

[rakimkoolgrapwutang]

this isnt that good a lyrical song there rwere much beta one on the album such as die rugged man die dumb chains etc i appreciate this song bcos hes simply sayin wat the music bis is like but its not that good a rap song rugged mans just tryin 2 show his emmotions similar 2 2pacs hit em up wasnt very lyrical he just wanted 2 express his feeling knowimsayin

[tsimisapollo]

@rakimkoolgrapwutang I think RAKIM Kool G Rap and Wu would all disagree with you since he grew up with the last two and has done a number of collabs with them. You clearly don't recognize complicated multisyllabic rhyme schemes.

[rakimkoolgrapwutang]

@tsimisapollo i no rugged mans got ill multis but he only has very few in his song most of it is just him sayin about his life and his story i suppose its quite good for story tellin rap but he had more lyrically complex songs i think this and a star is born is the least lyrical songs ive heard from him im not sayin hes bad at all i no hes got ill mulis just not that many on this song

[rakimkoolgrapwutang]

@rakimkoolgrapwutang and midnight thud wasnt that lyrical either

[tsimisapollo]

@rakimkoolgrapwutang It was meant to be a story. G rap knows R.A. is better than him if that puts you at ease. He was not focusing on the rap scheme as much as his message. But Everything he spits is lyrical regardless you just have a a bad ear for poetry.

[tsimisapollo]

They are stories dumdumb. Even when hes telling stories hes still extremely lyrical. If he isn't better than big hes the closest. 49 wins and 0 losses heavy weights know who the boss is.

[rakimkoolgrapwutang]

@tsimisapollo actually now u say that i think ur rite i was listenin 2 kool g brother on a run and i dont think it was as lyrical as this yeh i suppose i was bein a bit of a dik i guess i was judgin way 2 hard bcos i was thinkin this was no were near as good as his story tellin skills on uncommon valor which was stupid bcos that was just 2 good a song itll b a fukin long time b4 anything gets close 2 that in fact tbh the only story tellin rap that uses more lyrical devices than his is uncommon

[rakimkoolgrapwutang]

@rakimkoolgrapwutang valor and kreep by chino xl and maybe sum nas songs so yeh i admit i was completely wrong

[rakimkoolgrapwutang]

@rakimkoolgrapwutang blowin up in the world by kool g beat these as well

[tsimisapollo]

@rakimkoolgrapwutang Thank You. Uncommon Valor is one of Hip Hops all time greatest lyrical songs.

[tsimisapollo]

@rakimkoolgrapwutang You cant even spell 'Know' right soooo...... there are alot of multis in hear you just dont recognize them. I'm done. BTW change your profile name you disrespect those artist with the stuff you say.

[TwiztidMindDeathRap]

friggin R.A always rippin it one of the best out there

[venomflows1]

LOL sick video sick guy

[itseddyhere]

real as fock

[ballbagjim]

doesn't get more real than this.

[CypherVinz]

this beat is sick!! rugged is.....aaaah is incredible!!!

[JGrecco123]

more like D12 remind you of RA

[UpDa7e]

@JGrecco123

RAs on a whole different level. cant even compair the two..

[DomeBobbin]

reminds me of D12

[minifik]

u r my hero lol

[Tailypoe777]

LEGEND. them some stories, . . . ray. stay dirrty.

[soljaboyisabitch]

@ratheruggedmanfan Why's dublin a shithole lo?

[redcomic619]

R.A. is a king, and he's coming out with a new album this year. But I'd like to see him make a more emotional song rather than being hardcore all the time. So far the closest we have to that is Midnight Thud.

[agent012]

@redcomic619 this song itself talks all the truth about his life. so, just because the beat doesnt sound emotional doesnt mean it isnt.

[303RST]

classic!!!

[odotcom]

cool.

[TheOpiumDistrict]

So glad I've become more aware of non-mainstream promoted rap.

And that girl to the left of the screen at 1:42 is super nice.

[Bobbyhamster]

@TheOpiumDistrict also check out jedi mind tricks, la coka nostra, snowgoons,army of the pharoahs, celph titled, apathy, dutch massive if you are new to this scene bro!

[TheOpiumDistrict]

@Bobbyhamster Thanks for the names! I'll check them out. Names mentioned here, played on Pandora, and online lists have led to a lot of great acts. Thanks.

[Faceofscar]

@Bobbyhamster Spreading the love =D

[noscoper777]

[groalerable]

@Bobbyhamster

[FrankfurtMilad439]

[xxxwilly17xxx]

This is what I wanna gear on the radio not that black and yellow shit

[gta864]

[222NoName]

Most important things in life stay real ! R.A is the best of all time !

[realdude84]

[FedArteUrbano]

What a hard life this man had, my respects....

[MrNarekS]

They say maybe if you had Dr. Dre or Timbaland,

They say: A whiteboy need a blackboy to win

uhh Bubba Sparxxx did it, and so did Slim

[KrazzyKingz]

@MrNarekS lol. slim shady wouldent even be outa the trailer park withour dre and royce. look it up

[dmtformula]

@KrazzyKingz

Lol too bad he was alredde selling mixtapes before Dre nd Royce, u can not say where somebody would be without others because that is not possible. With his talent, he would have probably been recognized somewhere along the line anyway man

[mattyasasas]

[Loadfaster]

2:18 - - Can anyone verify if that is ACTUALLY SADAT X?!

Seriously if that I got to give props cause I just thought R.A. just got his sample.. To have Sadat in the video as well shows CLASS....

Even R.A. drops the brand nubian...

[SF311]

@Loadfaster Yeah that's really Sadat. And, dunno if you're aware, that sample comes from RA's track 50.000 Heads (feat. Sadat X)

[DjTheDon614]

i like some his songs this song is garbage he thinks hes bigger then he is

[TreeManTM]

Just found this guy today, this is maaaaaad gritty. Too sick. Mad Props.

[dvdjchvz]

Young cats are sneaking shovels into the club now. It's an epidemic. I blame RA the Rugged Man.

[JointManipulation]

i love rap so much i got hip hop junky tatted on my arm ... props to nice and smooth.

R.A is deffinately one of the best... real heads stand up

[HitzR1]

How can you know who RA is without knowing about Kool G Rap?

[soljaboyisabitch]

@HitzR1 Motherfuckin Jedi mind tricks.

[HitzR1]

@soljaboyisabitch We all gotta start somewhere I guess...

[soljaboyisabitch]

@HitzR1 .....yea

[0thevirus0]

Fuckin' Good Stuff!

[JokerAkaAntihero]

You all turn pussy once you get that green

[DjDafader]

[Slicknificent]

@420HighRyder lol yup

[StopRacism4]

R.A..... finally I found a REAL rap-genius in the 21st century.

[lutontowntvgang]

41 people dont know who g rap is

[Hosanna1Love]

rah did these blk souljas copy ra from us irish ira/inla lot or vice versa. who gives a fuck unless u a chosen believer lol cos is alol from same source of all creation inni

[soljaboyisabitch]

I didnt know G rap till necro shouted him out.

[paddyblaze1]

@soljaboyisabitch G Rap was ahead of his time in terms of skill and subject matter, and it was because he was kind of frightening to the mainstream that he never really got the push from his label that he should have. He definitely should have had a lot more commercial success and national exposure than he did. Having said that, I'm sure he did all right. Check out Marley Marl's "The Symphony."

[evilrobotbitches]

who is alchemist?

[PrezPoet]

@evilrobotbitches

Producer & Eminem's current DJ.

[CypherVinz]

adoro Rugged Man!

Catania manda rispetto!
