In the first part of our huge videointerview with the legendary West Coast lyricist Ras Kass, he talks about how his world view has changed since releasing his classic debut album "Soul On Ice"; why he puts "Soul On Ice" in the same class as "Rasassination"; how important was the author of "Gangsta's Paradise" Coolio for his career and development as a young artist and how he got the placement on the same track with Nas, Lauryn Hill, Organized Konfusion and Saafir in 1994. Razzy also tells us about the time when he wrote verses for Snoop Dogg and Nipsey Hussle, explains what he's learned from Dr. Dre, speaks on the status of the HRSMN group and announces highly detailed plans of re-releasing "Soul On Ice", as well as mentions the star-status guests that we'll hear on his next solo album... And it's still not everything! Enjoy.

In the second part of our videointerview with Ras Kass, the legendary West Coast MC talks about the time when he hung out with Big L in Harlem, reminisces on being in the presence of 2Pac, as well as remembers meeting both Nas & Jay-Z at the height of their beef, the day that "Ether" dropped. California MC also compares working with Dr. Dre & DJ Premier and how their approach to music differs, explains why he never signed to G-Unit Records although 50 Cent was trying to sign him, as well as talks about what shocked him the most in the music industry when he first came in the game. Moreover, Razzy speaks on the possibility we'll ever hear the unreleased Golden State Warriors album he recorded with Xzibit and Saafir, talks about working with David Axelrod; his two sons' rap group Coast Contra and his duo album with Apollo Brown "Blasphemy".

Which hrsm member did he talk about???

Canibus. He had did a track going at Royce 5'9 where he said your rap group against my rap group. Meaning Slaughter House against The Horsemen. Ras has relationships with most if not all members in Slaughter House and Eminem who they are signed to and Dre who Eminem is signed to. He's not trying to get involved and felt it was inappropriate of Canibus to include him in his beef. There's another video of Ras talking about funding the Horsemen album and having control of it. Since he owns it he said he may replace Canibus with Vinnie Paz. He has yet to mention Canibus by name but he's talking about Canibus.
