R.A. The Rugged Man is back with a new episode of The R.A. The Rugged Man Show (aka Ignorant Long Island Guy’s Podcast).  This time, he’s joined by hip-hop legend Masta Ace and young microphone assassin Chris Rivers (the son of dearly departed rap god Big Pun) for a fascinating hip-hop discussion.  The conversation covers the Juice Crew’s impact on the culture, hip-hop’s greatest live performers, what makes a classic album, the importance of storytelling in hip-hop, Big Pun's untimely death, the downfall of Cold Chillin’ Records, and much more.  Also joining the show are famed producer Marco Polo (who supplies beats for a few freestyle sessions) and talented Rhode Island spitter Passionate MC.
