R.A. the Rugged Man on Grammys Choosing "Non-Thuggish" Artists

[@Thugwaffle36]

This man is smart. He thinks so clearly and gets his point across easily.

[@leonthethird7494]

he purposeful lowers his vocab tho

[@thecavedweller616]

Yes, he is lucid.

[@KingChamp91]

he does lower his vocab but you have to give the man props he did his research and tried to figure out Vlads audience and he hit it on the head.

[@KingNez89]

Alexis Valenzuela I love ra the rugged man and his music he is a real ass dude man and incredible lyricist should check out his music

[@darthaddictus1591]

[@Jayskiallthewayski]

I love how R.A. goes in on Vlad every time.

[@Jon-pj7pu]

Yup 😂😂😂

[@BiggieSmalls946]

Cuz vlad just soaks up mainstream bs

[@finchisneat]

Word, I feel like he goes in on whoever needs to get it...

[@walmartian422]

Vlad is just like the people that RA talked about in this interview stuck in their own small world. Vlad just lives in a mainstream media pop hiphop bubble.

[@RosettisRevenge]

Vlad you ain't outrunning nobody. Your ass ain't moved from that chair in over 2 years.

[@kiddosflip7854]

NON NEGOTIABLE LOL

[@doodiemac100]

Vlad, make RA your second main stay alongside Jamar. Matter of fact, put both of them in one interview. These niggas keep it real all the time. Shouts to RA, huge fan.

[@Paris__Michael]

doodiemac100 I would both cry tears of joy, and die laughing from what the two of them would be saying amongst each other!

[@MrDendevil]

The grammys are garbage. At this point who even cares anymore? The album that makes the most money will win like always. There are tons of classic rap albums that haven't won anything.

[@EnduroDreaming]

NWO Chance won rap album of the year and his album didn't come close to Drake's in sales. The way to win is to kiss the Grammy Committee's ass and actually show up to the Grammy's.

[@Powerule23]

If it was about rap talent, Scarface would have about three by now.

[@Paris__Michael]

Powerule Ohh shiiiit! what you said was so real, it's the only reason I dropped this comment in the first place! we all know that nigga Brad is 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 on the 🎤!

Grammy is all about pop shit. It has no comprehension for true talent and it's fucked up to see how that fuckin Award has been the exmplification of greatness. It's all there to brainwash us.

[@chancey1979]

Please Vlad, Keep interviews with R.A. coming. Jamar is the main reason i come back to this channel on the regular. R.A. would be another

Personally I like Cole better than Kendrick just cuz 1. I can relate more to coles rhymes and 2. I think Cole's flow is better but to say Cole's clear cut better than Kendrick is ridiculous

[@mauricerowland7059]

[@MadEastern]

That's why Chance won. They love that soft, clean cut, non threatening shit.

[@fawkkyutuu8851]

@That Guy Wow somebody finally said the cold hard truth. It's these culture vulture privileged White girls.

[@JosephS-dj9os]

And?😂

[@SeriousBeats]

They're both wrong about Kendrick, if j cole and Kendrick ever do the rumored collab album you'll see clearly they're both top mcs of our time and Kendrick isn't behind j cole as far as lyrics go. J coles songs are easier to comprehend Kendrick might say some shit you won't be able to figure out right away because of the complexity and technicality. Both are definitely top 5 lyricists of our time right now.

[@BlackGodKing-oi2gr]

SeriousBeats Kendrick is clearly better lyrically and that's just being objective

[@imadoctor1951]

SeriousBeats theyre both great but J Cole is by far the superior artist

[@chaseanderson1689]

jcole flow is so monotonous fym

[@charlesholtjr1439]

Imperial stats exactly

[@MrThekidisback]

"Just because you can't understand him doesn't mean that he's nice." Not saying that Kendrick isn't nice but a lot of you think just because a rapper makes lyrics that are hard to understand it makes them better than other artist or it makes them more "lyrical" and it doesn't.

[@MarkanVaran7]

0:32 he said "Adrian" 😂 he forgot to add "Yo" 😂😂😂😭 hahahaha

[@DiverseLA]

Who even takes the Grammys seriously when it comes to Hip Hop, especially after they gave Macklemore the award over Kendrick, and after they gave Puffy the award over Wu-Tang Forever. You can tell the "judges" aren't really fans or experts on Hip Hop. They basically look at which albums had singles that topped the Billboard charts for the longest, and then vote based on that. And yeah they go for more accessible mainstream albums rather than darker albums, or grimier albums, or deeper albums.

[@walmartian422]

Thats how these awards have always been its a circlejerk of people in the industry patting themselves on the back there is no merit to these awards

[@deancameron3740]

Especially puff over wu, riduculous

[@Paris__Michael]

ever since I first heard of R.A. and heard him speak, in my eyes, he's always been an honorary black man!

[@lozano-jd2ku]

HES NOT BLACK?!?

[@Legitpenguins99]

The way he talks and his his mannerisms suggest he probably grew up mostly with black people so that seems fair

[@benjaminjeanes998]

He should prove to you hiphop isnt a matter of race. Do you get honorary white status for posting your insignificant opinion on social media so well. Or would It would it prove no race exclusively speaks for social media. People prove themselves worthy as hiphop artists. They arent proving to be black.. This honorary black bllshtt has to end. It should only matter who represents the poor not just the black. And almost anyman given this status is successful and no longer is poor or one of us. They may speak for us, to a degree, but they arent us. Black white red. Doesnt matter if you own a car worth more than anything i will ever own. Which is the main reason DRUG DEALERS , pimps, and gangbangers dont really represent the streets. They like rappers, profit off the struggle. They dont represent it normally

[@benjaminjeanes998]

Explain to me how it is not racist to speak for all black people? Explain to me how others arent speaking for you by you repeating this cultural bs? Yes. I am saying you are being racist and a sheep, that isnt speaking for yourself. You have to think for yourself for that to happen. And ive heard this bs many places. You did not come up with it. And you are not only one who speaks for their whole race.. Honestly you share a greater bond with those of like experiences, not skin color. Which is why you connect with this man, not because he should be the color you are. That is dumb

[@benjaminjeanes998]

Would i not be racist for saying same thing? Or opposite, like, Colin Powell or Darius Rucker are honorary white men. That is racist crap.

[@darkvalue505]

[@hassis6206]

R.A a real hiphop dude, he's music is some real shit

[@andyward8430]

I always liked rugged's music but hes more entertaining in interviews. I think he speaks for a lot of older hip hop fans, and young ones that really respect the culture and the art form.

[@hylasgeist1568]

great interviewee but his bars a DEF more entertaining. all through his career from 'smithhaven mall' to now. that's kind of a wild comment

[@jackybars9343]

I never understood why the Chance the Rappers or Kanye or Kendricks of the world always win. But dudes like YG or Game can't even get a nomination. Hell even Tip in his prime never won rap album of the year. Fugees won over Pac in 97, Outkast won over 50 in '04 rap album of the year is a joke bruh.

[@jackybars9343]

[@cooleojordan50]

Jacky Bars: Fuck Yo Feelings but Kendrick loved in the ghetto and was poor. Chance and Kanye grew up middle class and was pretty wealthy.

[@pedrosontavo]

What's wrong with Fugees and Outcast?

[@jackybars9343]

cooleojordan50 Kendrick isn't a gangsta rapper and there is nothing wrong with it. Just because you from the hood don't make you a thug.

[@assboyzent.2941]

That's all opinionated, IMO Cole has yet to release an album close to the caliber of GKMC, nonetheless TPAB one of the greatest albums of the decade. Kendrick reminds me of 3 stacks in the aspect that they tell great stories well and tell it from multiple perspectives and the stories are usually parables to teach people a lesson about the hood and how to avoid it.

[@kwakudreaming1680]

[@hoops_c.r.u]

Vlad doesn't even think about his questions, bro the irony of recording 'HipHop is dead' with the same sample of 'Thieves theme' is iconic! You gotta understand a poetic mindset, but hey, Vlad co-signs Yachti soooo there you go, you know nothing about art Vlad!

[@dominicakadc]

Kendrick is way better than Cole. Out of the Black Friday Tracks Kendricks was the best. It isn't criminal J Cole didn't win a grammy because his album was second best compared to kendricks. You don't get participation awards. And I love how RA is trying to act Like Kendrick had this free flowing flowery album and that's why the grammys picked it. Kendricks was more aggressive than Cole's album. I swear yall are trippin. And Cole's new album was boring, and you're talking about he's a better songwriter than Kendrick. GTFOH. J Cole doesn't have one album better than kendrick. I swear this guy seems like a hater, and just because people consider Kendrick such a good rapper too, like why are you mad at him for being good I don't understand.

[@laflame4469]

I like Cole but he's soft compared to Kendrick. The Cole Alright remix was garbage

[@Powerule23]

When I first played Cole's new album, I thought I finally found relief for my insomnia. Then I played it again, and a few days later, went back to a hear a particular song, and the next thing I knew, I was banging it everyday. I'm not a Cole fan, but, at least for my taste, it's a solid album. Probably his best. No. He's not a better artist than KDot, but you can only have but so many kings.

[@stan7444]

I like both of them, but I agree Kendrick is a better artist. His concepts are great with songs like "How much a dollar Cost" and "These Walls" dude is a beast. Cole is more traditional I guess you could say with his style which is fine but I think RA and Vlad are kinda hating on K Dot. He has dropped 2 classic albums since his breakthrough in the music biz.

[@nikimitchell2146]

willemdee j.cole is better lyrically but kendrick is more leftfield and unique

[@ARCADE_EXE]

Lost Ones. That's what R.A. was talking about. Gives Me chills each time...

[@Protocity]

Kendrick is a true artist. Yeah he did a throwaway verse for TS but we'd all agree he probably didn't consider TS when making GKMD and especially TPAB and UTUM. He paints pictures, he story tells, he tries to best convey emotions when he's making HIS music. Kendrick probably isn't a top 5 lyricist but from changing his voice, to the production and lyrical content makes his much more interesting and creative than those people who can only rap well. Music is subjective but saying Kendrick isn't a true artist is a bit ridiculous.

kendrick is superly overrated... j cole def a better song writer better word play.. just my opinion!

[@assboyzent.2941]

I don't think Kendrick is a word play rapper nor is he trying to be one. His purpose is to tell stories and steer people away from the evils of the world by telling stories about people that have fallen to those evils, sometimes even himself. I don't think Cole is a better song writer, Kendrick has yet to release a bad album, 4yeo as a whole was definitely a bad if not average album at the best. The songs themselves were decent, but for it to be a concept album the album wasn't cohesive.

[@frost2722]

I've always been a fan of RA. Bought his CD's and been to a few of his shows. But Damn, Every chance he gets to take a Jab at Eminem he takes. Everything Nick Cannon did after Em released the Warning just made him look insecure and desperate. That little stand up joke he made was pathetic. And honestly calling Eminem out to fight? Who gives a fuck? Who in their right mind thought Eminem in his mid late 40's would find it necessary to throw punches and roll around on the ground with Nick Cannon? Who wouldn't expect Eminem to just sit back and laugh at the whole thing? He was probably laughing when he recorded the fucking song. And challenging Em to a rap battle? Nick Cannon? C'mon man. That song put him and his wife on blast for awhile and there's nothing anyone could have done. Would have had way more respect if he just accepted it. Em got you. Count your money and move on. Having Nick Cannons back on the matter is just stupid.

[@spellbinder7036]

r.a is the definition of logic when hes talking about this stuff

[@YourPalHDee]

Couldn't agree more regarding Kendrick Vs Cole. Cole is INFINITELY better. Kendrick is great, he's not one of the greatest, he can't rap as good as Cole, he can't write songs as good as Cole, and he can't produce like Cole. It's insane that Cole gets robbed on awards so often. Greatest of all time in my opinion.

[@StacksSats]

i thought artists submit their album for the awards? Grammy's doesnt look for artists music to listen to...

[@masterarash7]

I only started listening to j.cole like 2 or 3 years ago but he quickly became my fav artist along with Eminem who has been my fav since like 2009.

R.A. is Vlad's best guest on so many levels

[@romant142]

He didn't pronounce Zimmerman right. He goes on to talk about Nick Cannon about he's mature an about his business then gives an example how he's ignorant by asking to fight Eminem doing the exact same stuff as Chris Brown and Soulja boy are doing who he was trying to contrast them with doesn't make much sense there. Ra has it out for Em. Lets be honest Nick Cannon is quite corny there's no way around it. I think Diddy in the video admitted that he played a part in what he was condemning which is clear he was part of the silliness.

I wish I would have someone in my life that knows more about hip hop than me but has other opinions on some shit I think. I mean I know a bit but I was born in 1994 so the fact that I mostly listen to 90's underground shit has a completely other effect on me and my knowledge about it thatn someone who came from that time.But my goal is to know more and more good shit, know the lyrics and understand them because Hip Hop is life and it's the only kind of religion I exeprienced in mine. To hear the lifestorys of other people who have other opinions than you, who went threw other shit than you and to get a look in thier minds is so fascinating to me and it tells yourself who you are and builds your character in a way. Sorry if some of this shit is spelled wrong the thing is that I'm from germany and I have far less practice with the english language than I wish I have. But in my opnion german rap is a shitshow compaired to the original. Here 90% of the rappers aren't real or play a role or bite each other and trap is getting bigger and bigger day by day like in america. The difference to America is that you have tons and tons of stuff from the past and the present that is worth listening to everyday you can find something knew that blows your mind. My problem with trap is that people still look at it like it is Hip Hop but for me it is a whole knew music genre. When everyone would look at it like that everything would be much easier and the real Hip Hop artists who are killing it, who noone knows would have the chance to get heard more often or could get the credit they deserve.
