Legendary rapper R.A. The Rugged Man is back in the director's chair for the rambunctious and hysterical new video "Definition Of A Rap Flow", off his latest album Legends Never Die. Among the Rugged Man's most infectious videos to date, "Definition Of A Rap Flow" features cameos from a host of hip-hop luminaries, from legends like Grandmaster Caz, Sadat X, Chill Rob G, Dinco D, and the Beatnuts to new-school talent like Chris Webby. Combining the style and essence of hip-hop's Golden Era with technically flawless new-school lyricism, "Definition Of A Rap Flow" is yet another reminder of the Rugged Man's undeniable place in the pantheon of all-time great emcees.

by now its physically impossible for r.a to rap without shaking his head uncontrollably.
MrMyth it’s also physical impossible to listen to r.a rap without shaking your head uncontrollably
@@kristinaweagant5421 Damn right! I only noticed that after you said it, but thats what happens every damn time lol
@@kristinaweagant5421 uy
lol lol lol
How else do you expect to get all of that out of his head? He cam only spit so much the rest gets shaken out 😲
2024, gonna keep on jamming this classic.
On the daily.
Till I die 🔥
Your favorite rappers favorite rapper.
tech n9ne?
Jae Es No that's MF DOOM
Lmfao I love all of yall for this comment section
Rakim?
You mean MF Doom?
Wow, I never heard this before, but indeed, Rugged Man's flow fucked my whole head up.
Lol
Hold up, ain’t this A-F-R-OS flow tho
@@Noah_McCurry No, RA held a contest where people had to rap over this beat and the winner would get to meet him in person. This is RA's original song
@@Noah_McCurry A-F-R-O won the contest on this RA track to become RA's apprentice.
➡️Now ask yourself why you’ve never heard it and listen to the truth RA speaks in many of his tracks and you will have your answer. Blackballed from the industry despite the obvious talent far beyond these puppet show minion sellout clown mumble rappers.
The fact this only has 99k views is a disgrace
Reed James Word
scott ford Glad someone agrees!
reego junior Counter must be froze
+Reed James Look up Definition of a rap flow by A-F-R-O
Hugh Arse concurred
Holy 90's. This guy is so fucking bomb
Released 2004
+XenterbandnameXlover 2004??????? isn't this from latest album?
+pensarefare haha yes sry meant 2014
I'm saying the feel is just hella 90's to me
More of an 80s flex
Fuck yeah! Grandmaster Caz does the intro of the video. A real rap legend from the first wave of rap/hip hop coming out of NYC in the 1970s, he was one of the top rappers in the era before hip hop was pressed to vinyl. Every musician should read about Grandmaster Caz's role in the making of Rappers Delight by the Sugarhill Gang,a real cautionary tale about songwriting credit and theft of intellectual property.
yoo thats so cooL!
Thanks for this post, just did my research and it was fascinating
Why this ain't blow up? Beat is super catchy and the flow is sick.
cause most people these days only interested in listening to clown rappers
Shared 🚀
Cause he was black balled out the industry. True story..
Always thought the same. Has a super commercial beat and hook. If it was some new dude with wack lyrics and a lazy flow on it maybe it'd be different.
Because the mainstream fans don't know it exists. And the majority of rap listeners are sadly mainstream fans. 🥱
People who praise Eminem for his fast rapping, rhymes, and flows have probably never even heard of this man before.
@samraiz shoaib lol yea, sure kid 🤣
@@ryensolar4000 tbf idk which would come out ahead, i listen to R.A alot more day-to-day than em, but ive heard most of eminems shit since infinite and there just isnt a clear winner to me
@samraiz shoaib if u think eminem beats R.A and its not even close then R.A's gone over your head.
Give Ocean Wisdom a listen particularly his track 'Eye contact'
Eminem is out flowed by plenty of rapper's who didn't/won't sell out!
Eminem is literally an industry bitch 🤣
Ya'll know rugged is talking about eminem in this song?
Lives in a mall?
Im a white boy ruining what blacks invented
Missing fingertips you crack addict
Im in the guiness book
Doc needs to put me on better medication?
Then the beat is a sped up "foolish pride"
So underrated. One of the best lyricists still in the rap game.
His technical ability is insane
This is one of my favorite joints by RA can’t believe in one month this video will be 10 years old.
"Spit at the cops, I'm resisting arrest" is such a damn good double entendre.
I love this so much. Better than anything you will ever hear on the dumbass radio.
I found this cause I heard it on danish radio everyday at work... Jussayin
***** Hi Bill, how's Monica?
kingdellxValdez I would think that everything on a radio that specifically markets to dumbasses would suck, xD. Sorry, had to get my sarcasm out. GOOD DAY TO YOU SIR!(tips hat)
kingdellxValdez Lol I did hear this on the radio XD
@@lhllfptt thats a dope fucking radio
This is one of the smoothest fucking pieces of hip-hop art, holy shit.
The only rapper that biggie said could out rap him. This is why
biggie said that?
Nathan Heyden he was quoted, "I thought I was the illest" which he was referring to RA but I can't find the source.
***** ha method man can rap but no way he's better than biggie
the what is the most phoned in song of all time. it seems to me like they needed a song, method man was around, and biggie and dude just came up with their most generic rhymes they had on layaway, stashed for an emergency situation. releasing every other song on that cd was that emergency situation, bc the public needed to hear them stat. if big said that it was a joke between the two
@@apoemyouneed2843 Bro Biggie rewrote his verse because of Method Man. You can hear Biggies original verse on the OG version of the what
Just saw him on Bridges Podcast. Funny guy. Never heard of him before. People on Reddit recommended this song. Great find.
Thats what i call a true black metal
Satana Mogila hahaha!!
Basically a copy and paste of Allogoch.
I thought Black Metal was a band called Death?
@@therealrobbdee672 lmao sure
TRVE NEVV YORKIAN BLACK METAL INSPIRED FROM THE RAVV AND PURE FORESTS IN BRVKLYN!!!
Amalia Bruun is definitely a crush after seeing this lol
This deserves so many more views than it has right now. R.A is a lyrical genius
-Long Island, New York
Massapequa in da hizzy! 😉👍🏼
I'm sharing it now lol. NY is the source of all the best rap lol
When you got a Grandmaster Caz Intro and Outro, you definitely made it!
Yep Damm straight caz one illest to hold a mirophone
only just realised who Amalie Bruun is. girls got range
It's an utter disgrace that this video only has 2,4 mil views after 8 years.
Her voice is bangin for this track. 😍
Yeah she’s perfect for this song! She’s gorgeous too!
RA is such a creative director and one of the realest MC out there!
Man his technicality is so awesome that it can't be compared to anything
Big ups to Rap Critic for exposing me to Rugged Man.
same
Vladtv brought me here
This has been a Kmut classic for decades.
The Sylvester Stalone of Rap :ppp
+Arcade FFA fuck that this nigga Is the god damn godfather ain't nothing for discussion
+Arcade FFA He looks like him too..
+Kbholla agree to that
That's what I thought
well that means he's great
Love all those old-school references. And Amalie is such a babe.
Y’all ever heard Myrkur? It’s Amalie Bruun’s Black Metal band. I like that she’s such a diverse artist. She even does like Scandinavian folk music.
She's kling black metal
1:17 Rugged man eating drake, wayne and kendrick
ruggedman liked my comment.... I can now die a happy man
hahaha serious? 1:53 ... night night macklemore!
Not hard. Drake and Wayne are total morons.
That's why he eats them, duh. But they're famous so it's actually 'hard', even though they're morons.
@@db4377 Yes. Duh indeed smh
It's sad he couldn't be apart of the 90s fame. He'd be even bigger today.
from the UK and just discovered this....damn
Holy fuck your missing out on alot lol
How does this only have 2 million views what the actual fuck this is amazing
@Amon Ra Music is a form of art, and people who can appreciate art in any form it may appear are a dying breed indeed my friend.
Getting old sucks but immediately recognizing all the references in this video is nice. Sweep the leg, Macklemore.
How am I just listening to this for the first time?
He raps so fast the words shake the shit outta his whole dome
This is Hip Hop!
I like and respect both AFRO's and R.A. Definitions, but I like R.A. 's more because he seems to have fun with it
@Sideways G dude i discovered jarv a few months ago and tbh hes kinda fell off, like hes nice dont get me wrong, like if u quoted a bar of any of his new shit it'd be undeniable that its not BAD, but its not GOOD either, like A.F.R.O and R.A have BARS but their songs sound good too, feels like jarv has bars but no sound to him if that makes sense.
This comment is hilarious to me because the RA in Ireland is a "terrorist" group and laughing at this comment thinking in that context...funny shit!
He got blackballed so hard cause he's flowing that you can feel his spit through your speakers. Banger song
Can't believe Myrkur is singing in this! Blows my mind! Great song!
Lol. Amilie Bruun is now the lead singer of the black metal Band Myrkur. 8D
DAT FLOW IS FUCKING MAD
Only ra can hold it down like that
R.A is hands down the greatest that there has been and will ever be. Only getting iller with time. To make it worse he's gonna be at the Cabooze in MN on 3.21.15 and my dumbass is back in treatment, so after waiting 13 years waiting to see him, I'm going to miss it. FML!!!!
This video is insane... C64 games and all. incredible flow and skills. This is pure gold.
Greatest music video in years.
I'm here after the Tim Pool thing. I'd never heard of Rugged before.
Dayum! I'm diggin' this song! :)
Great song, one of many of his that are awesome
When dose R.A. the Rugged Man Breath? no won knows.. BREAAATH!
Did he crane kick Macklemore?
ye
I didn't know what you meant, but I just died watching that! Lmao
01:53
A-F-R-O mentions this in his version.
Now he popping tags for real
Classic!!!
one of my favorite tracks by you RA!
Love grandmaster Caz he the greatest of all time, peave to RA for holding it down for hip hop, bless
Vary black metal Amalie.

Extremely underrated rapper

Great to see rugged man releasing some new real hip hop. Unreal flow

Dooooope, R.A. the greatest!

this song literally CHANGED MY LIFE !!!!
THANK YOU RUGGED MAN !!!!
This guy pummelling beats and rapper's combined xx
this vid was classic straight 90's music video.. dope song :)
90's best decade imo.
Seems more 80's and Early 90's sorta Decade, because Hip-Hop started to Evolve more in the 80's.
RA the most underrated emcee in the history of hip hop ..... to super dope
RA's music videos are always on fucking point
I just found him and instantly fell in love with his music.
Remember seeing this guy in the early 90"s. So good
Rugged Man is SO DOPE! I laugh so hard listening to his shit,. He’s a real OG!!
There's an energy in this that I haven't felt in a while. Something monstrous, but not malicious. I like it.
Pure gold!!
love..
if you understood what he was saying, then you would realize that he does make plenty of sense....
Jordan McKnight exactly!👌👍✋💪👊
cause he uses tongue twisters
LMFAO 🔥💯🤣
Absolutely, this is the definition of a rap flow.
"He cant be a good rapper becayse his lyrics went over my head"
😂 lol @ peeps
one of the sickest tunes of all time with ironically the maddest flow...so dope yo!!!
Lyrical genius. Love it!
One of the best music videos ever.
Haaaa thats macklemore getting his ass kicked at 1:54 lmfao............
@Fuck You dude, thank you for making my day 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Fuck You aaahh, shieeetttt 😂🤣 didn't even realise it. Wanna battle rap?
0:43 J-ZONE!
Can't. Stop. Watching this genius
RA is a real one...that Gangstarr sweater makes it official
Rugged Man....Been a fan for over 20 years! Still slaying cats after all this time. Gotta love and respect.
Edit: And here I am half a decade later still having my whole head getting completely f**cked up from Rugged Man's impeccable flow, and insanely complex wordplay. Still one of the best hip-hop artists alive in my humble opinion.
this is sick
+Night Pain if you don't like it why watch it?
this is way better than anything on the radio.. the music on the radio is not even touching this...
Love the creative shout to the biz.
Fantastic oldschool!
Lmao just saw who he kicked while he was the karate kid.
+MMandLFproductions I don't pay attention to 99.9% of music these days. Who is it?
ProudToBe AnAmerican Macklemore
He is basically saying he represents real rap and abhors fake artists who are overrated.
Lyrics:
[Intro]
Albee square mall
My house is the Albee square mall
My house is the Albee square mall
My house is the
[Verse 1]
Yo, let's begin it like this
The definition of a rap flow, I'ma reinvent it like this
Now what's that? Bust first I bust back
Must crush, bust gats, must bust a small time crook
I'm stealing your hubcaps, ain't nothing for discussion
I'm crushing you're dust and you're done in when I'm busting the rough raps
The Biz Mark, Biz Mark
What is it? A blizzard? Is it a limit?
Any crime you could name I committed
I admit it I did it
Lottery, gotta be in it to win it
I'm just a white boy ruining what blacks invented
But I'm the baddest, undefeated
Beat it, believe it, leaving you leaking, losing blood like an anemic
I'm rather conceited
Rappers are comedic, heated leaving you paraplegic
I'm undeniable, diabolical, biological warfare
Rugged that raggedy bastard
His breath stink like he gargling with battery acid
Who would've figured me to be deadly?
They never be ready to bury me
Better be ready, nobody better than me, sing!
[Hook: Amalie Bruun {RA}]
I'm feeling so groovy now
Rugged Man's flow will fuck your whole head up
I'm feeling so groovy now
{Let's begin it like this
The definition of a rap flow, I'ma reinvent it like this}
I'm feeling so groovy now
Rugged Man's flow will fuck your whole head up
I'm feeling so groovy now
{Let's begin it like this
The definition of a rap flow, I'ma reinvent it like this}
[Verse 2]
Rugged Man's flow is uglier than blind dates
My mental is heavy like Heavy D & Chubb Rock combined weights
I love myself, I'm so vain
I'm not just the king of New York, I'm the king of the whole game
Putting rappers in hibernation, they're hiding away
For retirement they're racing, it's funny like a pie in the face
And devastating, made a mistake
And you're waiting, debating, facing your fate
And creating, hating, raping, imitating the great
And break in your place and taking your safe and taking your paper
Paying for faking, this is history in the making, but wait
Spit at the cops, I'm resisting arrest
They wanna see me fry like a chicken wing and a breast
The truth is behind closed doors I’m a bit of a sissy
Singing love ballads to bitches like Lionel Richie
No joking, bragging and boasting, hoping to get close and approach 'em
Poke 'em, perking, and posing, potent poison the potion
Cooking the coke and cutting your throat, any opponent opposing
Leave you float in the ocean
You was Aaliyah rocking the boat and
Leaving ya broken, get Smokey to second that emotion
Explosion of flowing, overdosing, the chosen has spoken, sing!
[Hook: Amalie Bruun {RA}]
I'm feeling so groovy now
Rugged Man's flow will fuck your whole head up
I'm feeling so groovy now
{Let's begin it like this
The definition of a rap flow, I'ma reinvent it like this}
I'm feeling so groovy now
Rugged Man's flow will fuck your whole head up
I'm feeling so groovy now
{Let's begin it like this
The definition of a rap flow, I'ma reinvent it like this}
[Verse 3]
Rat-tat-tat sporadic, attack panic
Laying you down like craftmatic
You dissing missing your fingertips
You crack addict, I've had it
I'm back at it, the mathematic
Bringing the black magic attack
Hold up, let's slow it down with these raps
Let me catch my breath, let my brain relax
I'm so fly I'm basically levitating
I'm in the Guinness book record breaking
Hit you with a chair like the World Wrestling Federation
I got a bad reputation
Doc want to put me on a better medication
Cops hate me, harass me, interrogation
I’m dumb in the head, lack of education
That's enough, wait a minute
I'm finished, I'm done with it
Yo Swan sing it
[Hook: Amalie Bruun {RA}]
I'm feeling so groovy now
Rugged Man's flow will fuck your whole head up
I'm feeling so groovy now
{Let's begin it like this
The definition of a rap flow, I'ma reinvent it like this}
I'm feeling so groovy now
Rugged Man's flow will fuck your whole head up
I'm feeling so groovy now
{Let's begin it like this
The definition of a rap flow, I'ma reinvent it like this}
[Outro]
My house is the Albee square mall (repeated)
Go shopping, go shopping, go shopping
Let's all go shopping
Go shopping, go shopping, go shopping
Let's all go shopping
One of the best songs ever 🔥🔥🔥
Simply superb.
undoubtedly his flow is unbeatable, uncomparable, unreplicable! damn!!! i just wish i knew him before too
A-F-R-O's flow ripped his anus
I agree! I heard RA before AFRO. But still RA is very much underrated
ua-cam.com/video/-c3X91Ld-GU/v-deo.html
That chick is so hot and the song and video and flow and lyrics are all dope
the classic ☝️💣🔥🎤🔝🎙
Thank You for keeping hip hop alive
After seeing Eminem's latest interview I wonder what he thinks of R.A. and this song.
2019? ....♥
Love this mix!!!!
Legend...
