- www.vladtv.com - RBX spoke exclusively with VladTV about releasing his track, "A.W.O.L.," a diss aimed at Death Row and its artists, and the friction it caused with then-CEO, Suge Knight. The West Coast emcee explained that he was never signed to Death Row, despite Suge claiming him as an artist, so the label head was none too happy once RBX released his song under Warner. RBX recalled that the song was moving up the charts just about the time that Suge called and allegedly threatened all of higher-ups at the label, which RBX said "put the smash" on the song.
Speaking more about the track, RBX explained dissing Dr. Dre on the track and later becoming friends. He shared a conversation that he had where the famed producer told RBX that he actually thought the song was hard, and RBX said they later came to an understanding.

Facts
Absolutely?
"you better check yo self next time u talk about Eazy!"
Fucking love RBX FILES! Talk bout one of the if not THE most underrated for 90’s West Coast rap. Even the producer Gregski did fucking great on production, yea theirs not really “G-Funk” in it but when it was being recorded in ‘94, a lot of people were doing it so they differentiated themselves from that with more darker tones and beats and really more of a late 90’s kind of sound. They were a good duo, they should do another record together
I like how he straight up said he basically froze "is that how you feel" RBX- "aaaaaaaahhh" and how he also straight up said he had withheld the Suge Diss because he knew the repercussions wouldn't be worth it. Lots of guys be trying to rewrite history he kept it real even when it might make him look weak.
And God knows he is far from weak. Wisdom
@Coke Dogg Suge was not gonna try that piss shit on RBX. NOPE
@@youngmo77 well yeah he's 6'6" and played for UNLV
He old school gangsta. Most of you kids out here don't even know about the golf hats
Yea snoop brought that chitt back an a young kurupt!! Snoop " ibrought tha curl bak an tha golf hat tha black quarter sacks Tha 211s kidnaps an jacks"
black CROAKER sacks. lol
Actually that's not even an original golf hat but I still fucks wit it. The O/G ones have the golf pins facing the same direction. But I do have 2 'Street Level' brand Golf Hats
I'm starting to think Ice Cube got that "DeBo" inspiration from Suge Knight.
+Marcus Franklin In Next Friday Ice Cube calls Debo a fake ass Suge Knight.
Makaveli Soldier lol oh shit i forgot about that
***** lol 😔
+Marcus Franklin cmon son where you been at lol
he based deebo on a big homi from 6 owe ...big U ...
RBX is one of those rappers who was on Death Row Records since the Chronic album that you had to listen too because he had that aggressive voice nobody has ever heard before.
There's a reason he's called The Narrator.
@@orneryokinawan4529 he is a mc not a rapper
I don't know why you but I find RBX very interesting....lol.... His hand gestures and facial expressions and his honesty is priceless!
Ron dew facts
That's a OG. I like his interviews. He teaching this young bloods how it was in the streets of compton and areas in California. Actually any streets in America. Teaching bout the rap game as well.
RBX was like hey we got this album the (chronic) he's like I'm getting mine so suge and prob Dre like this dude got to go he went on to after math to work with Dre and m m
RBX!!! 😄
Besides being straight up, That voice...epic
Finally somebody say the way Dre was treating Warren G! Dre treated Warren G like he was a nobody & I remember in a interview Dre did he said if he had of known that Warren album was going to sale 3 million copies he would've paid more attention to him. If til this day Warren & Dre haven't work together. Sad....
Yeah you're right. It's the irony of the music industry I guess.
" Warren G, close friend of Snoop’s from Long Beach and brother of Dr. Dre was claiming he was robbed of due credit for his part in establishing Death Row Records in the early stages. He insisted to a Source magazine reporter he had “made” Death Row only to phone in a few days later pleading with them not to print the statements. The quote appeared anyway and a story circulated the Death Row offices that Warren was visited by Suge’s Mob Pirus in the middle of the night and threatened with guns in his mouth warning him to watch what he says in future. What was certain was that Warren G was visibly shaken and begun carrying two 9mm pistols at all times." I think Dre didn't help his young brother to make it on DR because he knew that the negative atmosphere and reputation of the label could undermine his way to success. I took this quote from a complete biography of Suge Knight relating with a lot of details how violence and intimidation were for him ordinary methods to do business.
Not true. Dre produced "Looking at you" off the Return of the regulator album.
May be he just didnt want his kid brother embroiled in that Deathrow bullsh*t
The Rob Yeah. And Dre produced “Game Don’t Wait” remix.
And That cd is STILL a MONSTER! I have it!
The X Files was a seriously dope album and AWOL is a genius disstrack. Much love to RBX.
Wasn't he on the original MMLP "Remember Me" - Eminem , ONYX
Yea him em and sticky
check me out tho
Yep Enimem had to bring it cause that went balistic on that track.
Killa Kev not ONYX just STICKY FINGAS
Yeah, but I think that song was originally meant for 2001. There’s early posters promoting the chronic 2001 listing rbx and sticky Fingaz as guests on the album.
A.W.O.L had the best post-release cover of any album in history...it was artwork of RBX ripping off the electrocution cap with one hand while breaking out of the deathrow chair.....
i saw that in a magazine, can't remember which one ...but that cover never made the official released album cover
"I'm not yo fuccin artist nigga!".....😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That gotta hurt Suge😂😂😂
he had the hardest verses on the chronic. "7 Execution style murders. I have no remorse cuz im the f******* murderer,haven't you ever heard of uhh Kila, A drop bombs like hiroshima"~ RBX..the chronic
He's high powered.
Surge-Alvez he drops bombs like hiroshima.
Yes indeedy!
He also has no remorse
AWOL classic album a lot of people slept on it need to listen to it hot as fuck RBX is one of the most underrated rappers ever
word to momma Emma drama dilemma
I agree with what he said about dre. Dre did kind of forget about snoop and the others that help dre.
While that may have been true at the time they made amends quickly after this song dropped as Dre was already by that point laying lower since Suge's ego was really spiraling out of control by the mid 90s.
You can just tell RBX is a sweetheart. A real honest man.
I hope to meet him one day loooove his candor. Love Him.
Righteous brother.
He's 6'6" if that isn't imposing enough lol I'm sure people don't or can't mess with him.
The Narrator
@@orneryokinawan4529 Suge tried though as with everyone on Death Row
Detective Vlad you want alot of negative info on Suge huh?
I want to hear that RBX unreleased Suge Knight diss track.
DOC signing over his services as a writer for gold chain and watch?
Must have been a huge gold chain and watch with diamonds lol.
I think the DOC got screwed over worse at Death Row than at Ruthless.
Doc was a bitch
Facts bro
He even had a 2pac diss when he was on Aftermath in 1996 but it was scrapped after Pac died. The east coast west coast killas is kinda dissing pac
Not many dudes would admit what he did. Respect, RBX👊🏾
7 execution style murders, I have no remorse cause I’m the fckn murderer...
RBX, TREY D, DAZ, BG KNOCC OUT 💪💪💪💪
That ARABIAN PRINCE dude from nwa was a good interview too
An a sober Kurupt! !
Yeah I agree. Kurupt was too jumpy and weird. Lol he was high or something
HE was lol but his a legendary MC one my favorites we all have. Bad day sometimes! Peace
Kurupt is always honest tho. I always compare him to Prodigy from Mobb Deep. They are twin logics
the doc does deserve alot.
Mike Bryant it's a shame he had that accident. he had so much potential.
3:12. AFTER HE SPITS THE VERSE, VLAD LIKE'. "UHHHH, ...WELL IM JUST GOING TO CONTINUE WITH MY QUESTIONS"
Hahaha

Is RBX trying to bring back the golf hat style back from the 80's?
G-Willikers Vlad drop the whole interview already damn.
I'm so going to listen to this song again.
*Eastside Low Bottoms shit !*
"With treachery, my literary form will blast and totally surpass the norm.
Not a storm. Plural. Make it...many storms,
Whn I'm vexed, i fight legs, neck and arms.
In this dimension, I'm the presenter, and the inventor, and the tormentor."
-RBX, 'Stranded On Death Row'
I always see that comment where's Johnny blaze
Vlad always talkin about Suge but he wont call out the culture vultures Dame spoke of. dont fall for it
Preach
You mean Lyor Cohen.
RBX....
West Coast Hip-Hop Legend.....
No matter who Vlad interviews i expect him to say, "Have you seen Slim Jesus"
Absent without leave not a leave
+djvald you should interview some ufc fighters like nick Diaz and Jon Jones
"Everything was hot and bubbly".
His thumbs are long af!!! lol
Killmore502 must have a big pecker lol
datguy there dats gay gtf out of here with dat shit
He a big dude, lol
AWOL was a great diss and it’s heavily underrated as it showed RBX’s lyrical talent and he’s a great rapper too, great that him and Dre fixed their issues
MORE OGS LESS NEW RAPPERS
Vlad getting his facts confused. He signed over publishing for 1 song for a Rolex watch. It wasn't ALL his publishing. That wasn't a rumor they actually had that in the contract. Vlad also didn't ask him about the infamous fight or scuffle he had with Suge over some Fried chicken. Again you can tell he wasn't following this when it happened. let me interview these people you are not asking the right questions.l
+urbanflavorz That chicken scuffle was talked about on one of Vlad's other interviews with RBX. That's why it wasn't mentioned in this clip.
Yes
my nigga Big LongBeach✊✊✊
Nice interview with rapper RBX. Death Row records owner Suge Knight is wrong for trying to block RBX album AWOL from coming out on Warner Brothers records. RBX made me laugh dissing Suge after RBX left Death Row LOL. RBX, Willie D of Geto Boys, Scarface of Geto Boys, MC Ren of NWA, Ice Cube of NWA, Redman, Run DMC, 2Pac Shakur, Tim Dog are my favorite rappers.
he drops bombs like Hiroshima
Noticed that when he said "I'm not your fuckin artist" ... he had a trigger finger as he was explaining that so you must know how that confrontation went down lol :/ smh
GOOD SHIT!!!
People really make Suge seam like a super villain of a comic book
RBX got them nails like he still bagging up nick bags.
Here's the thing....on the song AWOL. is a perdy good song cuz it seem like he stating facts on not over the top like Ice Cube's diss or a Nas ether. but heres the thing...why not diss Suge in the song? Or at Snoop..this fool went at the weakest link lol
Rick Harding Snoop is his little cousin
Is this a serious question? Because Suge is a fckin psychopath. If Suge knows you and still leaves you alone, that's how you want to keep it.
Without Aleve
Best part of listening to RBX whoo whoo whoo.
Remember me was the shit.
That long beach g shit,talking with the hands and fingers I swear a lot of trill one's do that out there I swear yell
he snapped
I was just thinking about the Ice Cube situation. Funny in the movie straight out of Compton Ice cube was asked what his affiliation is with the Nation of Islam (F.O.I). I wanted to hear him answer that one 4 real...
How ya like Me Now...But it ain't Moe Dee its Me THA XXXXXxxxxxxx.....
yo Vlad can we get another curren$y interview
A real OG! #RBX
I think the reason why Suge put pressure on Warner Bros to shortstop RBX is that Suge probably saw Warren G's success and figured "Damn! I didn't have anything to do with it, so I have to do something with the artists that I have under contract now. Otherwise, if this happens again and I don't have anything to do with it, even Jimmy Iovine, as hands off as he is, will end up seeing through it".
Rbx almost ashamed for doing Awol
Vlad had a switch installed in his brain to talk "urban" for the right people
LOL I like RBX with his Double O/G swagger
That pinky
It seems like a lot of these on wax beefs weren't taken that seriously. Makes me wonder if Pac really was dissing BIG for publicity.
he most definitely was, PAC was an actor
He was a 100% brotha hit it on tha nail!! Still luv pac tho!!!
MiC Dizz
Pac's 'get high and ride on my enemies' songs were never my favorite. I never buy music based on how much dirt I think a rapper did.
I'm high powered
Dre played him twice, once on deathrow and then wheb this fool went to aftermath. Smfh a really taleneted one got lost in the shuffle
Rbx spat the truth about dre
Rbx got bars an bars for 36 minutes...
I know it's a lot of people that's glad Shug knight is in jail,He seemed to have bullied everybody,more people know him than some of the old artist,some young people don't know old artist names,but they know of Shug knight
Most of these rappers were playing a character, but Suge was a real gangster. No one was safe when he was free.
I always wonder how Ice-T would did if he was signed to Death Row Records , i mean being an O.G to the game swiming on that environment , i'm pretty sure he would'nt took no sh*t from Suge....
He would probably be dead
@@chesterdonnelly1212 mmmm.... I mean he had his crew and some respect as an O.G in the game , i doubt that , specially with the conections he had
worldstart guves a bad name to sites like this vlad you teachin these kids some music they wouid never know about
the narrator
Rbx one on the hardest rappers in the game. This mofo was taking rap game to another level. People slept on him hard. Big mistake
AWOL was so hard!!! Loved that track!!!!
Hard 🔥🔥🔥 RBX!!!!!
Rbx looks like he got a bag of coke in his hand
I bet most of you don't know he's in a wheelchair vlad is real for not showing it
+ar ramirez for real ? i seen him walking in this other video when he was in the studio with snoop and the d.o.c.
Yea i dont his n a wheelchair cud b wrong doubt it
