R.A. The Rugged Man: Limited Colored Vinyl + New Video


When R.A. The Rugged Man dropped his first album, it seemed like he’d been around for years…and, well, he had. The Rugged Man’s storied background includes early 90s collaborations with legends like Mobb Deep and The Notorious B.I.G., plus a few epic appearances on the seminal Soundbombing compilations.  Finally, in 2004 R.A. blessed us with Die, Rugged Man, Die, a defiant masterpiece that kick-started his journey from industry outcast to independent hip-hop icon.  Featuring the classic single “Chains”,”Die, Rugged Man, Die” proved R.A. could deliver on a full-length album, and remains an impressive body of work.

Now, the previously out-of-print collection is available on limited-edition red galaxy colored vinyl, complete with new updated artwork.  Despite the efforts of doubters, R.A. The Rugged Man lives.
