John Austin IV (born September 26, 1973 in Carson, California), better known by his stage name Ras Kass, is an American rapper. He is also a part of supergroup The HRSMN along with: Canibus, Killah Priest, and Kurupt.

Soul on Ice

From a young age, Austin was influenced by hip-hop, inspired by a variety of old-school rappers including Ice Cube, Rakim, Scarface and KRS-One. His first album, Soul on Ice, was released in 1996. Taking its name from a book by Eldridge Cleaver, Ras addressed racial relations in the same manner, most notably with "Ordo Abchao" and "Nature of the Threat," songs dealing in militant Afrocentricity. The album was released on Priority Records, as was his followup, Rasassination, with beats from Easy Mo Bee and appearances by RZA, Twista, Xzibit, Mack 10 and Dr. Dre. Its lead single, "Ghetto Fabulous," featured Dre and Mack 10 and was pushed by a lavish video shoot; the album received generally positive reviews, and shortly the MC announced his third album, Van Gogh.

  • @Marz916 I didnt and still dont sleep on the production? I thought it was a nice album all together. Still one of, if not my favourite Hip-Hop album/s. Along with a few others you know. But definitley in the top 1-10. But would have been sick to hear him on some Primo & Pete Rock beats (:

  • @Qualiamusic . TheNikbagtvZone obviously came here for the Diamond D beat

  • @TheNikbagtvZone You need to medicated and tested for mental retardation. How has any of this not happened? Please explain to me your logic because at this point to me you sound like another slave to the illuminati.

  • @TheNikbagtvZone this green turns electronic, that certainly happened...

  • @TheNikbagtvZone are you living in a fucking cave?... NDAA SOPA ACTA and a new global currency and global government is also brewing... and if you listen to hip hop these days THEY ALL REPRESENT AND PRAISE nwo and illuminati.... so i would say Ras Kass was spot on haha

  • I LOVE THIS JOINT.

  • SHIT WAS DOPE THEN, BUT NOW HE SOUNDS LIKE A BLABBERRING IDIOT...CUZ NONE OF THE SHIT HAPPENED..LOL

  • His Soul On Ice album is one of the greatest written Hip Hop albums I ever heard, it's just unfortunate the production was not up to par, and it never took off. Sometimes I wish his Soul On Ice album was produced by DJ Premier, Pete Rock, and Diamond D.

  • Who was disappointed when they found out that this wasn't on the album? Peace.
