Dragon Blood. Fucking Roaring flame. I don't write a damn thing. I get on my laptop throw apple headphones on & bleed words to the rythmatic tune that is my pulse. Bandit Zee is already legend. 30 freestyles mostly poorly recorded on Apple Headphones, debut album coming soon.

Ras (X) is an Indie Artist, Producer, DJ & Podcast Host born in Manhattan & raised in the Bronx, NY. He started MC'ing & producing because of 2Pac, Nore's "Banned From TV" & Canibus. After hearing 2Pac's All Eyez On Me, he thought, I have to write sum lyrics. He would spend hours writing rhymes & imitating various rappers flows & lyrics. He is a huge fan of the mid '90s-early '00s hip hop sound and his music reflects that era. The moniker "Ras (X)" comes from his middle name Rashid, shortened to just Ras & the (X) is unknown, meaning it could mean anything, such as Ras (X)-Cellent, Ras (X)-Man, Ras (X)-Troadinaire etc. Also, Ras is an acronym, Rebel Against Society/System or Rage Against Society/System, Reformed And Saved, Return As Same & Reel Azz Soldier.

Ras (X) loves the process of making music. It can stem from mood, experience, everyday situations or short notice ideas. In other words, it’s very sporadic. Hearing the finished product & the feedback from listeners is what drives Ras (X).

Ras (X) has released a number of albums, EP's, mixtapes, instrumental & remix project's available online. He has been featured on 3 mixtapes (Most Wanted Volumes 1-3, available on Audiomack) hosted by co-founder of D-Block, J-Hood, published in 2 magazines & songs with massive radio play on various radio shows.

Also, he has produced tracks for various established and up and coming artists that have appeared on albums and mixtapes available online.

The Ras (X) Productionz brand was established in 2002.
