Uncommon Valor for all who haven't heard it yet:

Great track and agree with previous posters who state it to be one of the best tracks of 2006 (Appeared in The Essence Playlist of the Year 2006).
As for RA The Rugged Man, he's not an artist that I pursued following hearing him on the likes of SoundBombing Volume's 1 & 2 as well as Hell Razah's Renaissance Child.
I like him as an Artist when he guest features, but he's similar to Jedi Mind Tricks for me, I can respect their skills and their albums to a degree, but they'll never be in heavy rotation, I don't have that need for the hardcore lyrics, even if I really enjoy his skills and bounce on the track, but his lyrics are fun when taken in a light way, but taken literally, they're very street, to put it mildly, e.g.
I can't relate in the same way I relate to most Indie Artists...

RA The Rugged Man said:Strictly lust for papers and live life to bust nuts
We're God killers, let's be realistic;
We probably gon' be punished - we fuckin bitches by the 100's
Why me? Wanna fight me? Try me
Why these people don't know me - don't like me
Society, they wanna see me dead I stick out
You see me in the public, I probably pull my dick out
Smack the fuck out of women, see me knock your bitch out
Do somethin tough guy, who the fuck wanna die?
I can't relate in the same way I relate to most Indie Artists...

First listen? I think it was song of the year lyrics wise in '06. The storytelling was compelling and vivid and the way that he described death and a collection of people's in heaven in comparison to earth and the further damage that affected his family post-vietnam was just incredible viewpoint writing and delivery, flows incredibly too.

Rugged Man will suffer from the same as AZ. having one Amazing verse and never being able to top it.
I Heard that Biggie duet a while ago, its good, but for me its not amazing. not touching uncommon valor.
Im suprised its not more mainstream, cause biggie features normally attract listens.

Always good finding tracks that we've missed!
You should check out some of the older downloads in the Essence Essentials stickied thread :tu

Have you checked out some of his albums???

Apparently it's a rare find, so probably unknown to most, similar to the 'unreleased' 2pac tracks...

He did dope on the Celph Titled album with Buckwild. Not his best verse but still great!

Great album :tu I think everyone agrees he's good on features, but nobody has mentioned listening to one of his albums yet...

Lou Cypher;2717836 said:ive had his album Die Rugged Man Die for awhile but never got around to listening to it until recently. Its good, but the songs ive heard him on as a featured artist he definitely shines more than the artist hes collabing with.
Die Rugged Man die. Highlights of the album are Black and White, Lessons, Chains, Midnight Thud. all other songs were alright. not a huge replay value
