They are very close friends, RA even left a comment on video for "Fraudulent Cloth" by Jedi Mind Tricks. I recommend checking it out (both the song and R.A.'s comment)
@Demetrius Evans Yeah, but some may never stumble on his work, or they rule if rapper is dope only because of beats and don't focus on the lyrics. I myself listen and play mostly black/death metal, so it's only good shit for my hears, and R.A. and Vinnie Paz/Jedi Mind Tricks are difinitely at the top of the mountain skillwise. And RA on "Uncommon Valor" was so good that it was just absurd - his verse is like someone shooting you from AK-47 in the face, but they use words instead of amunition.
This was an excellent collab. RA continues to be the most interesting, and for those doubting Vinnie Paz's lyrical capability, listen to his collab with immortal technique.
Iconoclastic Hit the gym on repeat now I'm Tapping my Feet while Eat Sweet mesquite meat on Wheat from Pete on Beef Gristle Street Now my life is complete
vinnie and ra are two of the most underrated artists in all of hip-hop. they deserve to be way bigger than they are. at the same time that soundcloud mumble rappers are making millions, and have a worldwide fan base;boxcutter pazzie and ra don't get recognized by 99% of the population outside of philly and nyc. ridiculous.
+walter norwood no and no the reason why they don't make group is bcuz is what's wanted all said right there an if yall don't know then you don't know hahaha fuck lol
This video shows that Vinnie still has the lyrical capability he did in his earlier years. Lately he's been sticking to his 4x4 format, but hopefully we'll see some innovation from him in the near future! Dope video though, do I even need to say it?
This song and video is fucking dope! RA is one of my favorites and hasn't let me down recently like some of my other long time favorites. RA and he dont stop, keep keepin' on.
Been said from Day 1 R.A. is one of the dopest most underrated emcees to ever pick up a mic! Day 1 dude right here and not just cuz we were BOTH blackballed... REAL KNOWS REAL and if he conservatively ain't in everyone's top 10 then you have NO clue what an emcee and lyricism is.... #Facts
this damn video is by far the best video on youtube ever posted! and also. R.A. is so underrated that u fucks have no clue what he be saying half the time!
I think both are good, but Shady would still chew up R.A. in a contest, Marshall is what Mathers. I expect to see them produce a lot together, it is inevitable, the passing of the torch.
We Have To Go Back Shady wouldn’t even work with Cage due to previous disputes prior to The Slim Shady LP To add that Cage has disputes with RA The Rugged Man as well after a video shoot for Smut Peddlers song El-P, who has seen mainstream success due to Run the Jewels, can be the bridge for an Em and RA track due to him being chill with both MCs
Holy shit. I honestly couldn't imagine a wilder video. Great stuff. On a side note: does Vinnie Paz remind anyone else of Patton Oswald? I guess similar facial structure or something. Anyway, great song, album video, and flow.
Maybe he just wanted to do the hook. Or maybe they heard his voice on the hook when they wrote it. Or maybe one of them laid a few bars on a Sadat song and he owed them. Who the fuck knows it could be anything. You make it sound like the thought never even crossed their minds when I'm sure it did.
