Lets talk Ras Kass prior to his fall from grace ...

[beenz]

I have known he could spit for over 10 years. but I have NEVER been able to get into dude's music.

I thought his downfall all started when he fell out with the alchemist over that beat that eventually jadakiss turned into "we gon make it".

Did you name yourself after that Cru track with Ras Kass? That shyt's 16 years old.

One of my favorite tracks. Time flies.

Soul On Ice is a classic album from start to finish.

It's crazy he was never able to duplicate anything like that again.

IMO...he still has it in him to drop a really dope project if he collabs with someone to push him to spit what's real..something dark and nasty. With sinister production and a nice creative album concept, dude could drop something his fans wanna hear. He needs that inspiration.

He was nice though

Ras in his prime was one of the most advanced lyricist ever. He had wordplay in 1994 that nikkas today can't match

Then he fell alll the way off. Sad to see.

I had a Priority Records sampler tape and this was the first cut on it. The first time I heard this sh1t

This nikka from LA????? Never heard a west coast cat this lyrically gifted to the point where the beats didn't even matter, real spit. When this fool spit, nikkaz listened. The Wake Up Show, features, and SOI you were caught up in everything he was saying. Sh1t was krazy witta k.

Me personally, I couldn't wait for SOI to drop, I remember that sh1t like it was yesterday. C'mon, the first time you heard Nature Of The Threat on that b1tch, as a young black dude listening to some sh1t like that, most cats depending on your age had no idea where a lotta those references were coming from, we just KNEW this nikka was NOT FVCKIN AROUND LYRICALLY ON THIS ALBUM, STRAIGHT UP.

Dude had a east coast diss record that is still hilarious to this day......The first time I heard this fool spit "No ganews is good ganews but ganikkaz is ganot gaknowin about the ganext sh1t I be flowin......"

I musta fell out my muthafuvkin chair
