Best news I’ve heard all day.
Congrats Ricky D! Maybe he’ll make a new record now…or least get on some records! 43 is old for a rap star, but damn I’d love to hear him as much as a new Rakim record!
All hail Rick the Ruler!!
This was bound to happen at some point, great news!
good to see you rapping at hip hop in the park j soul that was more exciting than a slick rick record. Did you retire and come back?
Rick The Ruler is my favorite rapper of all time.
awesome!
