Two of Long Island's most celebrated emcees, the god Rakim and the legendary R.A. The Rugged Man, spent yesterday at Manhattan's No Mystery Studio working on new music together. In this clip, the pair chop it up about Rakim's contentious history with Big Daddy Kane, including the fateful phone call that prevented the feud from escalating. R.A. and Ra are working on a song for a movie soundtrack, and will soon be shooting a music video for the track.  More details on the project coming soon.
