Fresh off his brand new album All My Heroes Are Dead, R.A. the Rugged Man releases his latest single “Dragon Fire”.
The song features a variety of incredible artists like Ghostface Killah from Wu Tang Clan, Masta Killah, Kool G Rap and Xx3eme. The track’s intro samples iconic dialogue from the classic Kung Fu movie The Mystery of Chessboxing. Throughout the first two verses, Ghostface and Masta make a play on the word ‘killer’ in almost every line of their verses. The fast-paced track includes both obvious and discreet pop references in lines such as “I’ll put you to bed like Mr. Huxtable with a sedative”.
Off the bat, it’s clear R.A. isn’t playing any games on this one, with Shroom’s uptempo vintage production all but inviting a massacre.
