Jeeeeeeessus this like a modern bully version of guilty conscience. Hits harder when you coulda been that kid but knew deep down the ripple effect of your actions wouldn't be worth the momentary relief. I love you who ever reads this.

The GOAT! Protect this man at all costs!

One of the best rappers ever 🔥

Incredible concept song. RA is one of the most elite story tellers in the hip hop game. Sick beat too! One of my favorite rappers of all time

Another classic R.A. track, ain't nothing but a straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

He's the best storytellers there is.

Unbelievable lyrical feels like I'm witnessing a miracle. RA does it again will real lyrics taking over your brain.

I still bump the album. Its ill man

I always preferred your darker songs over your more lighthearted ones. They just seem to bang a special way.

This is beautiful. Speaks volumes and shows how talented he is. I loved seeing him live in ohio years ago and would do it again ina heart beat. Best night of my life

All my heroes are dead is a classic

The GOD TIER rapper, the last verse is truly mind-blowing and thought-provoking. Bless You Rugged

Pulling zero punches, RA always on top

Wow 😢 such a powerful message this should bring some attention to parents out there who see warning signs in their kids! Much love RA!

Ra the rugged man is the goat 🐐

13000 views?????? Should be millions.... ✌️

Amazing R.a heavvvvvy lyricist you get better an better every time star thank you...for sharing mi warrior ✌🏾🌟🙏🏾🌟🏋🏾‍♂️🥳

Tbh ra the rugged man telling a story that is just like a the massacres that have happened before its crazy and including the story alone gives a message if you ever have problems like the way he explained it ask someone for help there is always time to still be a changed human than a monster

You know that shit's tough in the US when a sleeping god like RA comes to life just to try to open some eyes. Big Up mr. RA!

Powerful track! And a classic album.

Fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Blame everybody but yourself luv it!

I'm just now becoming a fan

hard stuff. hopefully this will make few people think about our sick society. in my opinion it´s important that still rap with real content exists. 🙏respect

Tears rugged man. You got me crying

this one got me shaking literally. a powerful concept track, through and through

_"They blame the gun owners, they blame the bullies, it's a blame game... They blame parents, everybody but me, I'm the one who did it."_ By far my favorite part! You not only analyze the person at the start but society after and it's always the same story, people demand removing rights from people who never did anything wrong, they blame the parents, everything and everyone but the person who did it. They literally give inanimate objects superpowers and talk as if the object did it but they don't ever do that for anything else, whenever someone drives drunk and crashes you don't hear a demand for alcohol or cars to be outlawed because they accept that a person is the one in the wrong, blaming booze and/or cars would just be silly. The DEA asked Pablo Escobar, "how do we get people to stop making and shipping coke north?" He replied, "stop the demand, until that happens someone will always fill it." It's the same idea here, firearms haven't changed much in the last 75 years yet this is a relatively new phenomenon, if it was just a firearms issue, this would have been a problem all the way back in the 60s and 70s but it wasn't. I compare it to illegal substances because those are completely illegal (or only available via prescriptions that tend to be hard to get and are illegal to sell) yet it's all flooding into the country consistently enough for people to develop a physical dependence which takes at least a month of daily use. Laws mean nothing, they're an illusion to make scared housewives feel safe and think something is being done but the reality is that little Johnny can go to the streets and they serve him, sell him a 9 with a switch, whatever he can afford. I had a friend who was from a good home and by 16 he was an IV opioid user with a .38 special, all against the law but he had money so somebody met that demand, it's sadly that simple. Half my graduating class isn't here anymore, I'm the first one who wishes that more laws worked but they don't, laws only impact law abiding citizens. Stop the demand, stop this video from being an option in someone's twisted mind cuz you're not going to stop it through more laws. If that worked, the opioid epidemic would have been over when they took out pill mills. Instead, people just went to the streets for a similar poison in a different package, nothing changed and things actually got more dangerous because they were no longer getting items made in a pharmaceutical grade lab. There's over 400 million firearms in America, if you think more laws are going to get rid of them you're tripping but if they hypothetically did, what makes you think they wouldn't just come in through the border in the same way everything else that's illegal and not made in America does? It's 6am on Christmas Eve and if I wanted dope, all I'd have to do is drive 20 mins into the city and I'd have people stepping over each other to sell to me. Those same people could get me a full auto AK in under an hour, as long as I've got the cash, they've got the product...

Love this.

...RA is just a wonderful human being - no matter how rugged he is.

Respect

It truly is hard to compare EM and RA. They both have different styles and flows that I just can't name a either #1.

This one hits hard but that's the point. 🔥👏

RA never fails to hit me hard inside. This shit hurts.

damn. I'm speechless

With these types of things going on, it seems it would be wise to have some kind of a way to protect yourself and your family. It's a good thing though that a majority of these incidents don't take place with random people. They usually happen to those who are caught up in things that most of us wouldn't be involved with but when they do, it's always a good thing to be prepared.

Danke R. A

Grim. True.

I think there's no one alive on RA's level, fuck it he doesn't need the fame and recognition from a world in which Minaj and Drake are bestselling authors

wtf i was waiting for ittt mannn

Remember to love the little ones in our world, yours and others!

Peace To The Gods!! This track is ill…this present day society is mentally & spiritually 🤒 sick…

Dope

I appreciate the thought, but i think not. def appreciate all the art, ra

Cant wait for the MylesCruz x R.A. the Rugged Man song.
