I already had alot of respect for this man simply based in what R.A. had to say about him. But when he talked about his kids and said that God gave him his kids in that condition and that God put them in a place where they would be loved, I got a little choked up. That is a man who loves his kids with a perfect love. Wish I could have met this man.
its clear how proud of his family his father is. no wonder ra speaks so highly of him.
RIP original rugged man
HereComesHerpes and yet R.A. is still original and a lyrical killer
4:08
The start to one of the most emotional, meaningful, and lyrically profound songs I'll ever have the pleasure of listening to
e the yellow
Women they wearin pajamas they wanna harm us comment back if ur rocking on !!
Legends never die my G
Halooooo beautiful song
This video brings up good memories. I was there the night this was filmed. It was in Allentown, PA at an underground show hosted by King Magnetic. It was an amazing night. I was right in front of RA during all of that. Got to meet his pops too. Good memories for sure.
his dad is a badass..
Everything about this video is so amazing. I love the way Mr. Thorburn talks so highly of his family and the way he looks back on his life. The shots of Rugged Man hyping up the crowd and having a fun time. Rugged Man and his father are both legends. Peace, Respect, and Love!
I can see where R.A. got his trueness "Making love is a lot harder then making war.. making war is easy"- John A. Thorburn
I peeped that a while ago." Been rich, been poor". I think a lot of the way RA carries himself is due to his father.
R.I.P THORBURN JOHN A STAFF SERGEANT . [101ST SCREAMING EAGLES AIRBORNE DIVISION ]
The way he talked about his kids with disabilities absolutely warmed my heart R.I.P. Mr. Thorburn
Respect and R.I.P to Staff Sgt. Thorburn, and also to all who served in 'nam, my Granddad was Infentry in 'nam and fortunetly he came back fine (excluding normal mental strains that come from war) and is still healthy, my condolences to ra's father and family, i wish they could have been so lucky.
(R.I.P)

1st time ive seen R.As dad . R.I.P Staff Sgt John A Thorburn a true hero.🙏
R.I.P. Staff Sgt. John A. Thorburn he raised one of the best and his story inspired one of the illest verses of all time.
only the single best verse ever in any rap song ever....you need to learn yourself son...
Jedi Mind Tricks - Uncommon Valor ft. RA the Rugged Man
RA spits the sickest verse ive ever heard and its about his father in Uncommon Valor. YOU ARE TOO NICE and props to ur father for going through all that hard time a real american hero
Wow, what an interview! RA rocks! And so does his pops, God bless our troops!
I would be fucking honored to see Rugged Man and the history with his pops.. Fucking mad respect for RA and even more for his pops, dude was a fucking bad ass and handled his shit like a fucking man
REST IN PEACE John A Staff Sgt much respect sir
"Call me Thorburn, John A. Staff, Sargeant, Marksman...." something like that in the very beginning of the song haha
I just realized his dad was the intro for the daddys halo song on the legends never die album..
Dang just noticed, thx
Staff Sgt. Thorburn, John A.
21 gun salute
R.I.P.
If you dislike this, then you're weird. Dude is nice!
Uncommon Valor blew my mind
R.I.P Staff Sgt. Thorburn, John A. Without your contribution there could be no Rugged Man and for that we salute you for bringing us a man who is as real as he is gifted........ If the world was full of more good folks like yourself, our situation wouldn't be as f**ked as it is....... Peace to the gods!
Daddy's Halo gave me chills, amazing shit
rest in peace Sgt Thorburn
hahaha, he is INFAMOUS for that. Lot of ppl hate him for that...
R.A. Gotta love this guy. Intelligent rapper with maaad skills who has principles and stands up for things !
I have so much respect for this dude. He deff is one of the most underrated people in hip-hop, and his dad really was a hero. I never knew uncommon valor was a true story, that blows my mind. Ra, next time u roll thru Ohio, I don't give a fuck where, ill be there. Everyone should witness a real lyricist once, its like a fucking trip to mecca
Renaissance Man - He killed that song
His flow is incredible
Best rap gig i ever been to 🎤
HOW COME I SEE HIM AND UNCLE HOWIE CHILLIN WIT EACHOTHA?
THAT SHIT GAVE THE CHILLS.........
Thank you for your service and sacrifices.🙏
0:12-1:12 is the best flow ive heard in a long time now that's hip hop! he broke three different styles an told a story in the end shits sic hahaha
@MrCartmansmom is the only "source mag" verse of the month that was spit by an unsigned artist. so yea its that good.
Doesn't matter what anyone says, R.A The Rugged Man, you are the best rapper that ever lived, and no one is ever gonna top you. Your reign of supreme is gonna last a 100 years forward.
legends never die and still get through the day almost made me cry...R.A got deep
True dawg no one else can compete
best video on youtube.R.A,you have the absolute best flow I ever heard.I could listen to some vrs.10 times and still be amazed everytime.R.I.P STAFF SGT THORBURN
i have so much respecet for them both. it makes me feel good to watch this............
RIP Sgt. J. Thorburn prayers and respect for poppa RA !!!!
he's the only guy who gets away with saying he's the best without sounding like an asshole and that's because he is the best
I never served but if you served and the "uncommon valor" hits you extra hard or means more than all the better.. I give you props for serving and this shit gives me goosebumps and I've never served in the military but im sure for you it would hit close to home which makes it all the more meaningful.
i would definately say that R.A. did 'night of the bloody apes' on some heavy crack binge but whaddya know hes clean as a whistle ,at least his father says so. respect
@TheEOSproductions it's renaissance 2.0 on legendary classics vol 1
R.A had SO much love for his dad. It was heartbreaking when he announced he'd passed away on stage. Uncommon Valor Is just so unbelievably REAL, the flow, the lines, wow
Word man, and he even saw the face of war, had these 2 children, born with disabilities, etc.
Respect for him.
best of all time
That first verse he spit is ABSOLUTE MURDER!
r.i.p sir, thank you for bringing us the rugged man
I love this video, Its good to see what great people Ra and his father are
Fuck I have mad respect for RA's pops being spit out in Vietnam.. That's a man's man and uncommon valor still gives me goosebumps when RA starts spittin
It really does man, RA did this exclusively for his father, when you deploy and serve you see shit that will stay with you for the remainder of your entire fucking life. I have a small child now after the fact, and it hurts to look at her sometimes and seeing at the same time, all the damaged children littered across the span of 3 tours. All conspiracy shit aside, which we all know is true, John Thorburn, like myself, loved his country. and despite the shit its turning into...I still do.
Rest In Peace ... Happy Birthday
Okay, I get it now. It really is worse than I thought.
Rest in peace
Wow,so he was rappin about his dad in this song,i wondered why he said its a true story in the begginning and what his source was,thats cool!
best show i've ever seen. @ the independent in SF.
Theres a movie under that coming out? Man i've been under a rock...when is it out?
@hotpinkpumps Truer words can't be spoken. If this vid doesn't hit you in some way, no matter who you are...your humanity is lost. Much repsect to father and son. One of the greatest stories told through lyrics of all time.
legend
RA's dad seems so humble. =]
Amazing
.....If you just realized this now, have you never listened to the entire song?
He says that directly.
I dunno whether its just freezing in my house or what but when he started Uncommon Valor I got a shiver down my spine...
i shouldve actually explained alot more, he looks like a clean version of Uncle Howie
Spot on Brotha.
Was uncommon valor a story told through his fathers eyes, cuz it all makes sense. Deep shit tho!
dojo yup
lessons. by him obviously
thanks
Cawshes i agree.
Him and his pops voice very similar they should do a song together
4:30 - if I'm not mistaken in the background you can hear solo from Rolling Stones - Sympathy for the Devil
R.I.P Staff Sgt. Thorburn, John A (R.A's Father)
and so is he
CRAZY ASS LEGEND
4:08 Sampled I think you guys know where that came from! Song was such a tearjerker! It makes me wish I would spend more time with my father.
fucking real life hero.
unbeliveable
Lessons

@aAndersz The song is called "Stanley Kubrick"

@KINGABYSS111 Well never bro cause Uncle Howie has passed away :(.
RA, your father seems to be a nice person, would have liked to meet him, he must have so many things to tell, that's probably why you have these rap skills :).
His dad is so coolios
song is stanley kubrcik @ howudoin820
@hotpinkpumps haha true shit man, not to mention he has one of the best songs of all time written after him, best of all, by his son.
when's "god take, god give" coming?
"I Like This" lol i fughin love this shit!
Ez very very simple.. love!
Aww made me sad when he wuz talkin bout his kids:(
I respect his dad. My uncle was a mole rat in Vietnam. Crazy stuff man.
you are correct, but the song at 2:47 is called uncommon valor. Which is what the question was.
No offense but think before you try and correct someone.
Not even man, his father is my best friends uncle
so im guessing the uncommon valor a Vietnam story is about his father nuff respect to R.A
its parents just dont understand by the fresh prince
@TheEOSproductions its renaissance 2.0 also on legendary classics vol 1
@NewWorldSlaughter048
My bad....heat of the moment.
What's the name of the song RA was singing about Vietnam?
Jeremy Bear uncommon valor
