Ras G guides a deep space exploration of music’s ancient history and rich future. Working thru obsolete tools to reach back in time and pluck out the essence of groove, Ras G's music is rich with space-funktified rhythms, fog horns, natty chattin, subterranean bass lines, colossal percussion and glorious highs.
Ras G has been a fixture on the underground hiphop scene in Los Angeles since the early 90s. He is a proud South Central LA resident. Ras along with Black Monk and Ron Stivers are the founders of the Poo-Bah Label.
This is the music that people will be playing in the ghettos of Mars in the year 3014.

Ras G is featured on the cover of L.A. Record for Fall + Winter, issue 105; with an interview inside by Chris Ziegler and photography by Theo Jemison.
Ras_G isn't from this world — he's just passing through, making music that connects to the cosmic righteousness of Lee "Scratch" Perry, Sun Ra and Dilla. His newest album — the double 10" Spacebase is the Place, name after the part of the world where you'll most ofter find him — contains the crushing bass-is-actually-the-place songs any Ras_G fan has been seeking on vinyl for years, and July's Down 2 Earth is a beat tape built on the rhythm of a city bus, with gentle starts and stops that break up the (dirty / beautiful / same thing anyway) scenery. L.A. RECORD welcomes this true citizen of the universe as he settles in for another day at his Spacebase.
Pick up a copy of L.A. RECORD at the Poobah Record Shop for the full interview.
