One of the most versatile voices in West Coast hip hop, Ras Kass has collaborated with everyone from Dr. Dre to the Wu Tang Clan.* Currently serving time in California for breaking his probation, it hasn’t stopped Kazzy from releasing Institutionalized Vol. 2.* Like last year’s Insitutionalized, this album is self released, away from Capitol-EMI records, who tried to prevent him from releasing it late last year.* Featuring guest stars like Crooked I and the late Proof (of D12), this is an album any of RLSLOG’s hip hop heads should check out.
A living legend with a cult-like core following, Ras Kass stormed the scene with 1996’s Soul On Ice, garnering massive critical acclaim for his complex lyricism, sharp battle rhymes and witty punchlines.* 1998’s follow-up, Rasassination, featured guest appearances by Dr. Dre, Xzibit, Twista & RZA (of Wu-Tang). In 2000, he formed the Four Horsemen, consisting of Canibus, Killah Priest and Kurupt to massive critical accolades and a fiery commercial reception. Currently serving time, Ras Kass now unveils the highly anticipated Institutionalized Vol. II, a testament to both Ras’ resilience and the raw skill that underlay his longevity within the ever changing hip-hop landscape.
