the ruggedn'ess & madd drama




i don't think i have to explain too much about our next group. philly's finest ruggedn'ess & madd drama. this is their debut record i believe. it's from '93 and on kixx records, where one year later redd bull appeared. apparently this also is the first release of kixx records (kixx01).

both tracks are dope! nevertheless, "comin' at 'cha" is my joint!

as extra special delicacy i upped a video of them live on stage performing "me and my squad". to be honest, i can't remember where i have this footage from. the year should be '94/'95 . this is super fucking dope! check it out!

well, this makes things clear, but then most of the songs out as ruggedness madddrama is just ruggedness on the raps.
