An eMusic Guide To Rap-A-Lot Records

Rap-A-lot is not only a bedrock hip-hop hearth, with more than 20 years of incredible, innovative music to their name, but they're also a proudly independent record label with a track record of defiant entrepreneurship. From controversial founder and owner J. Prince to legendary MC Scarface, stoner icon Devin the Dude to UGK members Bun B and the late Pimp C, RAL has always been about vibrant, iconoclastic personalities emanating from the thick, strolling Texas funk-rap that the label specializes in. Here, for the first time on eMusic, is a user's guide to this crucial American label.
