Favorite Track From "Soul On Ice"
We recently had a poll at the TROY Forum where we asked people to vote for their favorite track from "Soul On Ice". In my case, it wasn't easy, as I've had at least six different favorites over the years, but as of this moment, my go-to track is probably "The Evil That Men Do".
On Earth As It Is
Anything Goes
Marinatin'
Reelishymn
Nature Of The Threat
Etc.
Sonset
Drama
The Evil That Men Do
If/Then
Miami Life
Soul On Ice
Ordo Abchao
Which one is your favorite? Let us know in the comments section.

I think Anything Goes is probably the best executed track on the album. Production, hook, lyrics, flow.
ReplyDelete"in 96 I suppose anything goes"
there are a lot of good songs on this album so it's hard to decide. i have listened to the whole album again. so my pick is "marinatin" cause it's a good song 2 relax 2.
ReplyDeletefor me its a tie between Anything Goes & Miami Life.
ReplyDeletewhen i seen the vid for Miami Life that was the 1st i seen or heard of ras Kass. i was instant fan after that.
Anything goes is soo laid back and smooth, u just cant front on that Al. B sure sample!
and dont sleep on marinatin!
"Anything Goes".. then its "Miami Life"...then its "if/then"
ReplyDeletei agree..."The Evil That Men Do" is dope, i love the drums
ReplyDeletemy favorite track is in the soul on ice 12"... the diamond d remix. his verse is incredible!!

SOUL ON ICE Diamond D remix sealed the deal for me! Ras kassiano
ReplyDeleteNature Of The Threat...easy!!
ReplyDeletenature of the threat was good but entirely plagarized directly from a book (name of the book slipping my mind right now)... tough question but i gotta go with reelyshmn because its got ill lyrics AND a good beat and a lot of these songs either have one or the other but not both.
ReplyDeleteNature Of The Threat
ReplyDelete"On Earth.." or "Reelishymn" the beats arent groundbreaking but Ras kills it on both.

From what I hear he is a racist dick. Best track was Understandable Smoothness and that's not even here. Could care less about this guy.
ReplyDeleteNature of the threat played on stretch and bobbito was the 1st time I heard of RasKass. this album is a classic and for whoever said the beats were weak, the production on this was ahead of its time. miami life/anything goes were my favorites
ReplyDeleteon a similar vein there was a song i once heard produced by fredwreck by an artist named k-borne.
song called "the Kwest" FOr the life of me this sounded like ras kass. had it on tape. came out mid nineties. anyone ever heard of this? it sampled nas on the hook
Ayo! Just listen to the album last night. Hands down its Miami Life. Close second is Nature of the Threat, Miami Life. The Soul on Ice (Diamond D Remix) is a classic. If that was on the album, then no question. Check it out.
ReplyDeleteThe waterproof MC you ain't wettin' me
You need to stop rappin' and start robbin' banks like Steady B
Cause see no matter how much green you make
You never taste the avocado just another broke Versace model
Tiger Woods ain't even up to par in the game of survival
That's why I'm pissin' in y'all Cristal bottles
Drink Listerine brush my teeth with amphetamine
So I can sound fresh and say dope things in between
You strike to five my average snorter, I want a woman
With the body of a hoochie and a personality like Gloria
Can't even say I didn't know 'cause while we wanna be
NWA they create the NWO
How many years, fo' mo' so fuck them fake John Gotties
Ain't got no Mazzeraties I be at the party sippin' on Todies
My niggas pumpin' areas, out Audies in Saudi
I'm thuggish ruggish to the bone, and I'm gonna dis everybody
