This albums incredible, but don't count out Westside Gunn, Benny, and Conway yo, them Griselda boys have already dropped a few projects this year already with even more to come as well
The entire thing is so dope. RA is proof (same with Jon Connor, who signed by Aftermath/Dre and never released a studio album) that you need to sell your soul and sign in blood if you want that mainstream shine and popularity and to "hit it big".
@@BlyGuy Never knew he was signed to Aftermath, Jon Connor is fucking insane though. Thanks for the lil backstory. Can definitely tell he's not the type to sellout for sales, I'm surprised he didn't release anything that didn't get promoted at least though? I mean what was the sense in signing him then not releasing his work? Aren't they losing money? I figured when you don't obey your label masters they'd just shelf you and drop any promo or buzz around your name. Didn't realize they would just flat out not let you release shit. That's nuts. *It's like being paid NOT to make music.*
@@Phearsum I am dying for Jon Connor to give us the full story on his time with Dre and Aftermath. Rise Up by Connor ft. Talib Kweli is one of my all time favorites.
@@jagemc For sure! Dropped today, so keen. Just commenting about how the absolute mad man dropped 15 songs off of said album on a public platform for free listening and just trusts his fans to buy it to support him. Thats why RA is the Overlord of the Underground 👍
@Vincent H. haha good point dude😅 maybe isolation is getting to me. Probably come out of this like: "we wept to be so alone... And we forgot the taste of bread... the sound of trees... the softness of the wind. We even forgot our own name. My Precious." 😂
Its cause he's sober as hell, no smokes, no drinks, nothing. I remember going to a show with this chick that would always buy a drink for the performer, 99% took it, the only guy I saw not do it was Rugged man... straight up said, he dont touch that shit... I wonder what he'd be like if he was on drugs.
Who else knows all the reaction channels are going to blow up when they finally get on this album. They'll be a couple of decades late, but I'm looking forward to it.
the production, especially the scratches, are really top grade on this album. RA sounds fresh and hungry/sharp as ever, much credit to him putting together another quality ass album.
Yep, the scratchin' is similar to the track: "Portrait of the Artist as a Hood" by DJ Daddy Rich, of 3rd Bass, going crazy on the-one-and-twos off the album ; Derelicts of Dialect
This album is pure fire. Seriously its been years since i heard such a lyrically insane album, the beats are fire the flow is immaculate, this is a fucking classic
For sure, it reminds me of all those classic albums from the mid-90s. Where every track on the album was fire and you listened to *ALBUMS* not just picking and choosing tracks. You never wanted to skip a song because you didn't need to.
Fucking amazing!!! Sad thing is, people won't actually LISTEN to music nowadays. Everything is superficial. R.A. and Deca are both amazing and I've shown their shit to dozens of people and nobody is blown away. I don't get it
I still can't decide what song is the best on this album .. ffs I have never been more musicaly confused . I hope this 22 absolute bangers album will get HUGGGGEEEE recognition in the hip hop community ! .. this is pure insanity ! thanks R.A The Rugged man for bringing me tears of joy while listening to your stuff ! bless you man !
This is the kind of rap that should be in the mainstream that cheap trap shit with annoying voice changers needs to go already. Hip hop and rap needs a revolution immediately
RA has an issue with Em, he just thinks he's a corny white boy. I haven't heard Em utter a word about RA so they probably don't think a whole lot of each other
I mean I'd assume only because he's talked about him in a neutral way and clowned him and his crew on some video or somthing joking about how they jumped him. I'd atleast expect them both to say how each other is dope ya know especially how they were on the same mixtape, rawkus records
Definitely his masterpiece, this album. Always had mad respect for him but this speaks volumes. Total flex on the fake ass artists out there buying their songs.
Here, just accept the award for album of the year now because nothing's gonna come close to this. Classic shit.
Amen brother!
Amazing album - too bad they'll award a bunch of talentless r and b crap and fake garbage because most people can't handle music this dope.
This albums incredible, but don't count out Westside Gunn, Benny, and Conway yo, them Griselda boys have already dropped a few projects this year already with even more to come as well
*KöhömMusicToBeMurderedByKöhöm*
But nevertheless it's a great album! :)
A lot of other tracks in this album are getting more attention but this track goes hard
I agree man it's that slightly swung old school feel beat
It’s the best track on the album
MD?
Im headbanging so hard my head is hitting the floor and the ceiling
elbowed myself in the head and don't even know how it happened
LMAO
Lol same god dam it 😂
6 songs in,best album I've heard in years
Too bad I can only give you one like
Probably the best rhymer of all time. He pulls off these long ass rhyme chains with ease.

15 new RA songs at once? Oh yeah, its all coming together.
Thom M album

Oh 💯 Solid As He Is
best thing in 2020

I'd be interested in comparing the volume of RA's lungs to an average, not rugged, man.
I remember seeing him spit the Uncommon Valor verse live and thinking, this guy has the lung capacity of a Navy SEAL.
Its cause he's sober as hell, no smokes, no drinks, nothing. I remember going to a show with this chick that would always buy a drink for the performer, 99% took it, the only guy I saw not do it was Rugged man... straight up said, he dont touch that shit...

lol
breath control!
Who else knows all the reaction channels are going to blow up when they finally get on this album. They'll be a couple of decades late, but I'm looking forward to it.
breath control, lyricism, hunger, skill, history
14 people that dislike this just mad because these bars hit harder than their dads
RA is the most underrated mc in the history of hiphop.....................................................period.
That PH reference made my whole day. May peace be upon his soul. Thank you R.A.
All systems flow
the production, especially the scratches, are really top grade on this album. RA sounds fresh and hungry/sharp as ever, much credit to him putting together another quality ass album.

its DJ kwestion the dj from Jedi Mind. he's dope.
Legends never die was seriously good too! Hes unreal
Word UP, bro!
This album might be his best work.
Definitely Green, Mister!
I feel like I'm the only one that appreciates scratching on hip hop records
Lit. Your album is a Savior. You are a legend
Beat, Chorus, Flow, Scratches 🔥.
This album is pure fire. Seriously its been years since i heard such a lyrically insane album, the beats are fire the flow is immaculate, this is a fucking classic

@@KuntaKinteToby those were the days. Nowadays its just auto tuned wackness.
That is some high quality rapity doo diddley right there young man. Set my toes a tippitty tapping!
For real though, always wicked.
This comment had me dieing🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh yes I love the tippity tapping of the hippity hoppity.
Oh shit... this is the fucking jam of the album.
Literally the first rapper I've ever heard shout out Snowden. As usual, infinite respect, R.A.
And called out the Saudis over Yemen on the track with technique
Normally listening or watching stuff I'm stone faced. This whole album has put such a big smile on my face. It's so good it's crazy
nice
This needs to get album of the year..... fact
This whole album is dope and worth listening to more than once.
Damn it, RA ! I was ready but not that much, killing flow, i have to take a break, i'll be back, wow...
The whole album is flawless, what a legend
That's a master of flow in his prime.
Fucking amazing!!! Sad thing is, people won't actually LISTEN to music nowadays. Everything is superficial. R.A. and Deca are both amazing and I've shown their shit to dozens of people and nobody is blown away. I don't get it
Impressive flow...

Next level. Album of the year
“The man from the cave” got bars!!!! He is live!!!!!!!!!! He Marshall on Steroids!!!!
RA has an issue with Em, he just thinks he's a corny white boy. I haven't heard Em utter a word about RA so they probably don't think a whole lot of each other
I mean I'd assume only because he's talked about him in a neutral way and clowned him and his crew on some video or somthing joking about how they jumped him.
I'd atleast expect them both to say how each other is dope ya know especially how they were on the same mixtape, rawkus records
He’s pre Marshall. Em wishes he was as ill as RA
Definitely his masterpiece, this album. Always had mad respect for him but this speaks volumes. Total flex on the fake ass artists out there buying their songs.
Best beat on album
