Ras Kass – “Soul On Ice 2: Instrumentals” (Album)
Okay! Now we got an artist thinking of other artists (and wannabe emcees) in this damned Coronaviral Era in which we find ourselves house-arrested in. From Ras’ house to yours, via the Interwebs, you are blessed with your OWN copy of the instrumentals for his latest album. So, now what?! What’chu gonna do?
As for me… I’m listening and bopping to the beats. Like, now, because how often will we get something this dope at this price (FREE.99)???
Cali legend Ras Kass has decided to release the instrumentals to his newest album “Soul On Ice 2” today. To make things better, he’s giving them away free all week so that people locked down on Covid-19 house arrest have something fresh to write to.
Ras Kass x RJ Payne – “F.L.Y. Remix” (Prod. By Gensu Dean)
‘Out with the old. In with the new’… Okay, Ras Kass, then let’s go ahead and have RJ take his turn riding that track, with some new twists and turns thrown in. Gensu is a beat genius to boot; really touched this jawn up lovely! Dean brought the Payne to this Ras Kass & DJ Green Lantern jawn they dropped last year.
But you know what they say, “F.L.Y.” (F*ck Last Year)… This is the REMIX!
(Full disclosure: Ras dropped this remix right at the end of 2019. So, there’s that. Hahaaa!)

Ras Kass – “Silver Anniversary” (Prod. By Twiz The Beat Pro) [Video]
How you gone be a menace it when ain’t no MEN in it? Oh they WOMENaces…
Yeah. We have been getting 25 years of pure venom like that from Ras Kass!!
It’s been nearly a quarter century since Soul On Ice and they still can’t handle the truth. In fact, the intervening decades since Ras Kass dropped his classic debut have only validated the poisonous and panoramic vision of the waterproof MC, who was immediately hailed as the West Coast’s answer to Nas. And with the Nature Of The Threat growing more real by the minute, there couldn’t be a more necessary time for Soul on Ice 2.

D.Tail – The Cypha 1.5 feat. Joell Ortiz x Awate x Leaf Dog x Ras Kass (Turkish Dcypha Remix)
Emcees of a feather flip birds and words together, right? Well, I’m saying it’s right. And I’m saying that D.Tail is showing some of the same ‘feathers’ that folks like Joell Ortiz & Ras Kass be flashing to the masses…
After a prolific year with his 2018 EP “Disk 2 U Cant Do That” (with Producer Turkish Dcypha) UK Native D.Tail releases his debut LP “Happy Accident.”
A Love Letter to Underground and alternative Hip-Hop. Full to the brim with abstract rhyming, intense wordplay and hyper lyricism across its 40-minute run time with silky smooth soul loops and abstract chops provided by an ensemble of super producers made up of Turkish Dcypha, Marley D, Herda Vim, Klass Klown Karl & Henny Knightz. Includes the single “Is Anyone There? freestyle” and guest appearances from frequent collaborators Britizen Kane & RaggZ not to mention a posse cut which features Joel Ortiz (Slaughterhouse), Awate, Leaf Dog (The Four Owls) & Rass Kass.

Ras Kass – “F.L.Y.” (F*ck Last Year) [Prod. By DJ Green Lantern] (Video)
Timing is everything… Timing is what separates regular people from pedophiles.
What? Like you didn’t know Ras Kass is sick on the mic. Ha! Suck it up, buttercup. Remember, Ras spits that hard! And that “Soul On Ice 2” is due out September 6. Check out “F.L.Y.” off that forthcoming project.

Styles P and Lil Fame, and unveils the release date July 26th for his next LP, Soul on Ice 2. “Guns N Roses†finds Ras wrecking a dusty psychedelic flip with M.O.P. and Styles P.

Ras Kass – “Featuring Myself” (Prod. By Omid G) [Video]
Cleaning out my inbox, I forgot about this scoop-n-score sent to me by my folks over at Bad Magics. Sharing is caring, people, especially when we are talking about Ras Kass music. And since it was dead in the middle of winter at the time, the heat was appreciated. Check out Ras Dolo with “Featuring Myself” above.

eLZhi x Ras Kass x M-Dot x Large Professor – “Reaganomics” (Prod. By B Leafs)
For days we stay in slumber, still pray to tainted alters, kids trained to gain and conquer.
– M-Dot
I remember the “Reaganomics” era. Great time for music, but the White House and major corporations… let’s just say they were not always looking out for us over there in the day. But knowing that, and spreading the word about it, gave rise to some of the best Hip-Hop music ever.
So, is this work worthy in light of what the title implies? Well, seeing the line-up, I’mma go on and say HELL YEAH! But I’m still gonna listen (as should you).
Elzhi, Ras Kass, M-Dot and Large Pro is one of the most legendary line-ups you’re going to see this year. “Reaganomics” is a legacy that’s endured almost four decades and is more relevant now than it was back in the 80’s when the [Anti-Robin Hood] concept was scribbled down on Bonzo’s napkin. For those in the dark about the system, it’s where corporations/wealthy lined their pockets from the taxation of the middle class, creating huge national debt and unredeemable budget deficits which forced future administrations to cut funding for social programs. 4 legends tackle the topic with their 4 unique perspectives, in the 4 unique styles you know and love them for. “Reaganomics” is produced by B Leafs off his upcoming debut album “The Horizon” out Jan 29th.

Ras Kass – “Smoke Break” (Joyner Lucas Diss) [Prod. By Simplex]
Sooooo… do we file this under “keep my name out’cha mouth” or “all love, but barz as f**k!” No matter. There are not many rappers out there that really want it with Ras. And Ras is trying to hold Joyner Lucas up as an example of someone who wants NONE in this rhyme.
Fiyah!

Jamo Gang – “Welcome To The Golden Era” (Video)
Good math right here. Ras Kass + El Gant + J57 = Jamo Gang. And the product? Dope! Straight out the 90s, taking it straight back to the 90s… “Welcome To The Golden Era” (the best)!
Doper still? They got a FREE EP out now!
Rest Well Sean Price, Because Wifey Got You On The Mic (Video)
Gonna let Ras Kass tell you about this Sean Price mini-tribute. I have seen footage of his wife rock with Rock on this Heltah Skeltah track, and it still chokes me up a bit when I see Sean’s wife step in like this. Plus, I think she is getting better.
(Hit the jump for the music video from back in the day.)
This Was Dope. Rockness & Bernadette (Sean Price wife) spitting his verse prod. by E Swift, Tha Alkaholiks show & myself. Mad friends & celebs in the building…

Ras Kass – “Game Of Thrones Season 6 Rap Up” (Video)
Get ready for this lyrical Red Wedding.
I still haven’t watched Game Of Thrones like most people, but Ras Kass’s update is dope.
Note: Sounds pretty in-depth, as in if you mean to watch Season 6 and don’t want to run into any spoilers before you binge… or if you do not want to hear Ras’s predictions for Season 7… don’t watch this yet.
Ras Kass – “Amerikkkan Horror Story” (Video)
Ras Kass’ rhymes kick ass! Not many other ways to say it. The lifted speech clips, the beats, the switch-ups… AND the flows! All packed into a powerful visual. Click play. Enjoy thoroughly.
And THINK! That’s what Ras’ music demands you do. Shout to Bad Magics for getting me the word on this “Amerikkkan Horror Story” video… so I could pass it on to you!
