Rah Digga walked on the yard at Rikers with a pack of Newports and a DJ. She battled the whole yard until the go back! She was mad cool, but killed anybody who stepped up! No security. She told the guards to lock the gate and leave. Just her and us rapping for the whole rec. #respect
Meeh I disagree, tbh she fall in the papoose category, hard rymes/raps, but can't make those hardcore lyrics into a song, I don't want to be in the club listening to a song try to solve math problems, and the imperial song her biggest hit was mediocre at best. Tbh I think nelly is trash, and will always be trash but in the 2000's he made hits. And I got more respect lyrically for rah digga than nelly anyday of the week.
@@skipfuego6339 Indeed! Mad fuego. It's called Flipmode Squad Meets Def Squad on Busta Rhymes "The Coming" album. I stated elsewhere that Jamal (aka Mally G) and Lord Have Mercy had the best verses on that track- Just my opinion. I was listening to it a couple days ago and replayed both verses over 10x.
Rah Digga was one of the dopest female emcees, still til this day. The Outsidaz was an ill crew, but Flipmode had her in her beastmode. That first Flipmode album was fire AF too. I’ma have to go back and re-listen to it.
You know, its just sad hearing an interview like this. The business and label politics/mergers really got in the way of a talent like Rah Digga from getting a fair shot at a career. A Rah Digga produced album by Dj Premier & Pete Rock in the early 2000s wouldve been crazy. Rah and Lawd Have Mercy are two artists who really couldve went further in the right label situations.
His album was ready to drop, I still get vex until this day that never came out 😏 he got done dirty on the Imperial album too, leaving him out of bangin tracks like “ Settin it off “ I got cha back “

If you managed to have Limewire prior to the federal government shutting that site down, then you downloaded her second album. I damn sure did. 😁😁😁 That High Speed chasing track she has with Mobb Deep is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
You don't rap the best possible off the head , you mean you don't . For others such as myself it's natural for me to freestlye off the top and people think I wrote it. Not everybody has that gift it's allot of rappers who can't freestlye but sick with the pen. I'm sick wit both and I prefer to come off the top in any battle I don't care if it's agasint writtens that's how confident and skilled I am at freestlying. I'm a master of my craft.... cus my craft has been mastered but I feel rah digga definitely a lyricist and legend of hip hop.
Great To See Rah Digga, I'm Still Rocking "Dirty Harriet", TIL THIS DAY, Besides I Did Promotions For The Whole Flipmode Squad And Everything They Put Out Back In The Day In Chicago..!!👍🏾✊🏾👍🏾✊🏾
There should be a law where if a company shelves an album. After so many years the artist should be able to buy said album back. Why wouldnt these timeless masterpieces be released. FlipMode was a problem. The word thot was used by Rah before it became slang.
Damn we really got robbed of a classic album that could have catapulted all of them in the game. I remember I bought Dirty Harriet and Rah Digga has some solid joints on that album. Salute to you Jersey Queen.
Wait…. we not about to just breeze past her saying Nas and Slick Rick would’ve been on a song together remaking Hey Young World had that flip mode album came out on J Records 😳🤯
Salute to roc marci from going from flipmode to his own stuff and carving out a lane. I am surprised we did get solos from some flipmode artists. I knew a kid in high school who was a spliff stan and swore he had next.
RAH DIGGA looks VERY GOOD!!! Like many natural female rappers from the 90s and early 2000s. She literally looks exactly the same from when she first came out!! 🤩
I remember Rah Digga did an interview a few years back. And she said some songs that were supposed to be for a Flipmode album. Ended up being a Busta Rhymes song. One of those songs she said was Pass the Courvoisier.
Digga is just too legit! First heard her on that De La Soul album when she did the “ghost weed” skit and started rhyming off the Slick Rick ish So dope she is! Love her 🥰
Rahs been keeping it tight since the 90$. That’s all I listened too in 98 was Flipmode The Imperial and I remember coping Dirty Harriet from my man selling cassette tapes in front of the Magic Wok on Market Street.
Shout out Rah. E Davis from RPM Flipmode promo driver. It was an honor to rep the squad and your Dirty Harriet album. Good times on those tours. All the best in whatever you do🙏🙏🙏🙏!!
i hope she talks about tame one, he recently passed and he is a brick city legend, despite his troubles he went through during his later life. RIP Tame1

He passed away? This is my first time hearing that news, fam😲! Back in the day, I was definitely a big Artifacts fan. I still have their first album to this day. I actually purchased the CD twice because my first copy began to skip on the intro beat. Two albums that I'll always repeatedly listen to are the Artifacts album, plus the first Killarmy album. Tame was definitely nice with the graffiti, too😵!
This is one of the best interviews. I’ve seen on here. Just allowing her to speak. Tell her story. Plus I’m biased. Because Rod digger is probably my top 10 favorites.

The way how Digga and L-Boogie go back and forth on that is dope AF 🔥🔥
I always wanted a Diggah, Lauryn, Latifah album. The Ladies of NJ
Agreed
Yeah I still listen to that joint once or twice per month
My girl Rah!
I’m glad she’s being recognized.
She doesn’t get enough credit.
The energy in her voice is like a force that pulls you in and grabs your attention.
See this is what Drink Champs should be doing! Letting our legends even our semi or forgotten legends get their shit off!
They don't need to cause math is doin it
Twu..😁
@@GoatedCulturePodcast no. They gonna be talking over Mr cheeks with shitty acoustics not letting nobody finish. DC is ass now lol
Lord Have Mercy dropped some hard bars on When Disaster Strikes.

My mom brought that album when it came out. I loved rah and Eve at that time
The Flipmode Squad album a classic in my opinion. Bought the album more than once.

Facts 💯 All this music industry shenanigans is snake like
That's true talk.... Lord Have Mercy was the nicest in Flipmode besides Rah Digga. Busta, then them. It's too bad they couldn't co-exist
All facts.
Definitely. I always wanted to see Digga blow. Digga ain’t ugly but she wasn’t pushing sex appeal
They did Lord Have Mercy dirty !!!!! As at that time he was spitting fire🔥🔥🔥💯
Lord was different
Lord was the dopest in the crew to me. His voice, delivery, and wordplay was just 🔥
His album was ready to drop, I still get vex until this day that never came out 😏 he got done dirty on the Imperial album too, leaving him out of bangin tracks like “ Settin it off “ I got cha back “
He was nasty🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ehhhhh... Nah
"We make moves in stage coaches
Rah digga lights the roaches
If anyone approaches
We be like noches, buenos
And I compose a poem for the many gun-slingers
R&b singers, perpetrating guns with two fingers
My style is perhaps one of the foulest
I inhale large clouds of smoke through my chalice
(Buckin' at stars) and write rhymes for hours
The ghetto missy, drinkin' whiskey sours
Bust this scenario, can't no other n*ggas in the barrio
(From newark to Ontario), bust us when we in stereo
Cause me and rashida rock the battles
It's apparent, your no talent, cause your blazin' in your saddle
Watch these rap b*tches get all up in your pockets
Then bounce with accountants that give me good stock tips
Cause props is up, digga's through the roof
Burnin' n*ggas like I'm 90 proof
And for all you head beaters
The lead eaters, the cheaters soon to be retreaters
While mamasitas carry real heaters
I rock the dooby and

Lord Have was heavily underrated. They should put out an album now
01:38 I noticed how she mentioned everybody name in flipmode except for the Lord have mercy there was definitely tension between them

Dirty Harriet.

I still have this Queen on my rotation, so many bars. Thx for everything. ✌🏿✌🏿
Been in my top 5 greatest female mcs for decades, still waiting for Rah to get the proper respect and acknowledgment
Lord Have Mercy was super nice. One of the illest voices.
First!!!! Rah Diggs always been the illest

I like how you guys let the guest talk and don’t talk all over them like some people do
Still listen to Lord Have Mercy to this day. The illest underrated
Sad about that 2nd album not happening. I'm a Rah fan and was so happy to see Flipmode when Busta did Busta and friends a few years ago.
Rah is up there up there. She can rap rap 💯🫡.
One of the Illest voices and deliveries in the game period
Sista still looks amazing. Gosh, I freaking love my people, nuff Respect. APTTMH
We need Roc Marciano on here
Digga blazed everything she touched. Listen to "Call the Ambulance" remix with Busta, Digga and MOP. FIREEEEEE
Rah Digga is a beast she better than a lot of niggas I hope she drop again
Rah digga was a true spitter she blended in well with flipmode.
I was looking forward to that Rah Digga second album! Party and Bull was great single and was getting some traction on 106 and Park
Look up rah digga everything's a story. That's her 2nd album...20 songs
Love you Rah digga ❤️
I waited patiently for that Rulership album from Flipmode, that LordHaveMercy album and that Harriet Thugman album 🤟🏾😤🤏🏾
Always loved digging, super talented I wanted see her succeed.
I fw the track she had on 13 Ghosts. “Mirror mirror on the wall
Who gone survive? Who be next to fall?” 🎶 😂
