they are all very old..


but Rich released an internet-album last yr, Ant Banks disappeared 7-8 yrs ago (he's into real estate).. i think Rick Rock is still around..

dunno, if Celly Cel still rocks the Pippi Longstocking-haircut...

[Shango]

RR appeared on some remixes, Yuks Da Town, & Philthy Rich Feeln like Pac

[KrazySumwhat]

 Iam sure Rick Rock still around? cant think of a recent example though.
 Celly Cell was on DPG's "100 wayz" album. last actually song i remember from him he was rapping and the beat kept changing, switching through old classic beats. I forget teh title or where it was from.
 I only breifly flicked through that Richie Rich mix tape. Production sounded terrible. Didnt liosten proper though, also featured teh scrapped song he did with Snoop for "the blue carpet treatment.
 Rich still features on albums, he been on Yukmouth albums and iam pretty sure he featured on Yukmouths upcoming album.

[Rudki]

Rick Rock had some cuts on E-40's Revenue Retrievin and hasnt he produced something on the new HoodStarz record?

[Blood$]

Rick Rock - was just on multiple cuts from E-40's albums and was on 50's album last year amongst others
Ant Banks - went into real estate like Fab said
Celly Cel - other than his feature on DPG's album I think he does some behind the scenes work with Sic Wid It
Richie Rich - still drops verses here and there on others' albums

[BIGWORM]

Alot of artists went to shit when ANT BANKS quit...

[dameons]

It will never be the same . Rick Rock had it on lock in '02 and '03 .

[GangstaBoogy]

Rick Rock will always be around.

Richie Rich had amazing chemistry with 2Pac. His 2 features on All Eyez On Me are classics. "If you gun bleedin, and you needin, more than 10 stitches you behave like them bitches" lmao! Other than that I never really listened to him.

I never really listened to Celly Cel either other than "Its Going Down". My dad was a huge fan and I used to always hear that song playing at his house so it became a staple in my frequent playlist.


Whats the real story with Ant Banks? I've heard rumors and speculations but did he ever come out and say 'yeah I quit and I sell houses' or 'I got blackballed' or anything?

His last album he did was a couple years back was with some dude name "LD" or someting. He was supposed to drop an album called "Da Town Buisness" but it never came out. I doubt he retired just getting that real-estate cake in ATLANTA. He must be making a grip because he went there around the time it started to boom 96-97....
