while the majority of Ras' beats were only alright (not terrible by any stretch), dude actually also happened to rapp over some ridiculous beats over course of his career (Diamond D- and Primo-related).
Ras Kass opened up for Rakim a couple of years ago in Houston, his music never sounded so irrelevant. I liked his shit when he first came out snippet tape, etc.), but the album was a disappointment. Soul on Ice Remix is dope. But all and all, he's much better as a posse cut dude.
Jeru at the very least has a classic album under his belt.
Anyone know if the "Won't Catch Me Runnin'" 12" (the non-picture sleeve version with "Remain Anonymous" on the flip) is worth anything? I still love that cut.
It's too perverted, you heard it, so now you get murdered Test the sound system, it throws off your equilibrium Deep concentration can't fracture the meditation Competition is flipped on at random Deviant monks attack the mic is mental pandemonium And then some, you go for your hand gun Psychokinetic[/b] forces proceed to smash in your cerebellum Phonetian with more stamina than a Christian my mind, C3 H5 N3 O9 like Nitroglycerine I bust as Afu Ra crush Clash with us and meet Cerebus
Ras beats can be medicore, Canibus beats have been strait wack. I copped his first LP, and lyrically hes one of the best, but I could only listen to 2 songs off it. His other cds I didnt even buy cus of the same reason..... although his stuff with Stoupe has shown his true potential...lets hope he gets the backing tracks he deserves....
F*ck anyone know when Ras, Kurupt, Killah Priest and Canibus are gonna drop that 4 horsemen shit?
