ive been foloowin ra for awhile so maybe i could shed some light.......ra's like old school but hes asserting himself back into new school.......hes ar rap legend or icon if u will but at the same time hes making more noise bout anybody droppin thier album than anyone in the hip-hop industry than anyones.........i would say most of the aftermath artists are kinda on that gangsta tip yah know......and ra raps a certain way in terms of bein the most lyrical rapper ever, so he needs somethin of lyrical content on his level........em n ra r 2 totoally diff rappers but i give em a great deal of respect of lyrical content, along wit xzibit......and dre wit ra........i mean i would like to see ra make oh my god as close to a perfect hip-hop record than make guest appearences.......but i do think we will b seein ra a lot more now that his album is almost complete and he had that feat wit truth hurts........hollllllllllllllllla
peace

Nice l'il conclusion brick

I think you've about summed it up, & i'd much rather hear a full album from him first than see him popping up here & there on other peoples records. I think Truth's record suited him well, 'cos as brick said he's not really on that gangsta tip, he's more of a serious & classy lyracist.
