RA the Rugged Man has been making consistent noise from his most recent release, “Legends Never Die.”
Few artists are ever as controversial as they are influential. New York legend R.A. the Rugged Man has lived up to such a moniker by simultaneously inspiring generations of rappers while being banned from every major record label’s offices and even barred from performing during the late-90s underground explosion. But by combining the authenticity of his undeniably rugged life with his undisputed mic skills and understanding of the genre as a Hip-Hop historian, his music has both survived and thrived off the strength of bootlegs and word of mouth through high profile collaborations and high quality official releases, setting a standard for “Real MCs” that few have ever attempted to match. Frequent collaborator The Notorious B.I.G. was once quoted in reference to R.A. by stating “And I thought I was the illest.”
Prop Anon's newest video, “'False Flag' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QKMUvbqi7c)” has been drawing viewers into his unique brand of investigative hip-hop phenomenology. Prop Anon is on to something big. Catch him if you can.
