Ras Kass is so underrated with a respectable catalogue. People ask why he didnt blow up but those of us that kno underground hip hop kno and love Ras. Labels sometimes dont do their artists justice and I dont think they knew how to deal with his style and talent at the time. "Soul on ice" is a hip hop classic that many have never gotten a chance to hear. Ras is a true lyricist and fan of hip hop and his approach is pure love and respect for the art form. West coast had so many amazing artists during the golden age of the 90s hip hop scene and Im not talkin bout Coolio. lol. Souls of mischief, Del da funky Homosapien,Evidence,J5 just to name a few. I was fortunate to catch some great live shows and meet many of those artist, Ras was always humble and having the time of his life. Back in 96, I ran into him in old town Pomona after one of his shows and eventhough he had his hand full w two girls,he still took the time to say thanks for showing up to his show. Classy mf!

Coolio helped Ras get his break. Why is it cool to hate on Coolio? Ras said it himself - Ras knew how to rap, Coolio knew how to sell rap records. He'd been rapping since the late '70s and when most would've given up he did not and ended up winning a Grammy. He was an OG who tried to bring all his people up with him and who most reputable artists in the game loved and respected.

I always thought Eminem earlier in his career reminded me of a mix between Chino XL, Masta Ace and Redman Chino's first album "Here to Save You All" is criminally slept on; every track is dope Pac dissing him in Hit Em Up gave Chino better promotion than Def American Recordings could afford As far as Rass Kass, Soul on Ice is a bonafied classic If Rass was from NYC, that jawn would've been considered neck-and-neck with Illmatic It's a shame that east coast publications downplayed the beats when not one song is skippable The track "Ordo Abchao (Order Out Of Chaos)" speaks about what's going on today as far as covid-19 and the pandemic...and that dropped in '95!

Chino XL one of the most underrated MC's of all time.
because he is not versatile enough---too underground. its almost all lyrical underground sounding music and not enough funky rhythmic tracks or 808 hitters
Because Chino is, was, and will always be Wack ass Fucc! LoL 😆
100 percent the best mc alive
His beat selection is terrible
He could've been better. He has lyrical skills but as the other poster mentioned he need versatility. I listened to the debut album and its a bunch of metaphores and too much name checking celebrities.

Salute Rass his energy is dope
Subscribed! The way you allow your guests to speak at length without interruption is impeccable.
The first time I heard Miami life I was life long Kass fan. Kass is legend and should get his flowers
“And despite high schoolin I be high, refusin to listen to what the PTA say, eff a 4.0 G.P.A., I got a 5.0 GTA hittin the chop shop, with an ETA of 3 o’clock, so shake the spot” that shit always blows my mind how smooth it is and how vividly he describes it.
Ras Kass is so underrated with a respectable catalogue. People ask why he didnt blow up but those of us that kno underground hip hop kno and love Ras. Labels sometimes dont do their artists justice and I dont think they knew how to deal with his style and talent at the time. "Soul on ice" is a hip hop classic that many have never gotten a chance to hear. Ras is a true lyricist and fan of hip hop and his approach is pure love and respect for the art form. West coast had so many amazing artists during the golden age of the 90s hip hop scene and Im not talkin bout Coolio. lol. Souls of mischief, Del da funky Homosapien,Evidence,J5 just to name a few. I was fortunate to catch some great live shows and meet many of those artist, Ras was always humble and having the time of his life. Back in 96, I ran into him in old town Pomona after one of his shows and eventhough he had his hand full w two girls,he still took the time to say thanks for showing up to his show. Classy mf!
I knew rass was cold on the lyrics back in the day too..after watching this interview he said he was glad pac didn't diss him....it would have helped his career and he doesn't even seem like he knows that...smh
Marcus K. Salute to you and your statement. You even spoke for me on that one..
Ordo Ab Chao, Soul on Ice and not to mention "Nature of the threat" Those tracks grounded his career. He went far, but didn't fly.
Coolio helped Ras get his break. Why is it cool to hate on Coolio? Ras said it himself - Ras knew how to rap, Coolio knew how to sell rap records. He'd been rapping since the late '70s and when most would've given up he did not and ended up winning a Grammy. He was an OG who tried to bring all his people up with him and who most reputable artists in the game loved and respected.
Rass Kass one of the most gifted spitters of all time!! Its not everybody you turn the bass down to make sure you hear all the words!! 💯
Ras Kass is an icon, i can listen to him 24/7... Amazing interview.... he's a great storyteller
Let's not forgot that Ras was also tight with Saafir. Saafir and Pac were staying together whilst touring with digital underground but eventually fell out. Saafir would later link up with Chino XL and record a few records together
Yup, folk forget Saafir in that Digital Underground fam too - hope all is well with him.

I always thought Eminem earlier in his career reminded me of a mix between Chino XL, Masta Ace and Redman Chino's first album "Here to Save You All" is criminally slept on; every track is dope Pac dissing him in Hit Em Up gave Chino better promotion than Def American Recordings could afford As far as Rass Kass, Soul on Ice is a bonafied classic If Rass was from NYC, that jawn would've been considered neck-and-neck with Illmatic It's a shame that east coast publications downplayed the beats when not one song is skippable The track "Ordo Abchao (Order Out Of Chaos)" speaks about what's going on today as far as covid-19 and the pandemic...and that dropped in '95! The double meanings on that jawn is crazy Dude was clearly ahead of his time 💯
Chino boo boo
Yep. And for those that don't know, Em spent A LOT of time in his early days around NJ artists. The Outsidaz, Chino and Redman are all connected, and Em was around that.

@@gangstamack8397 Thats right, it motherfucking was 👍🏽. A lot of those beats didnt have the standard Death Row typical west coast sound to them, so Id speculate that Death Row didnt really kno what to do with those beats and just dismissed those producers as "wack'.

And only Pac coulda done 'Krazy' 🔥🔥

It's funny that some of the giants of west coast rap are from the east coast. Obviously Tupac is from N.Y., but Chino XL arguably one of the best pure rapper/spitters ever is from East Orange, N.J. Kurupt one of the best rhymers is from Philly. And the FATHER of west coast gangsta rap Ice T is from my hometown of Newark, N.J.
Yea that's crazy, when you say it like that it makes me think who are the best spitters that are really 100% from the west coast? Some who come to mind are Crooked I, Gift of Gab, Aceyalone, Myka 9, Abstract Rude, the rest of freestyle fellowship and hieroglyphics, but I'm not even sure if all of them were born on the west too

That's a diss line bro either way
It was a diss. Hence why ras didn't like the line. That album was ful of name drops and disses so yes it was diss. Chino was a punchline shock rapper and he knew what he was doing.
Pac did get fucked in jail though. That's pretty common knowledge in hip hop circles
tupac one of few artists people love talking about after his death
