amazing, creative, heart-felt, passionate, enraged album that only could have come out this crazy if the abuse was real.
Tomica Wright, the current owner of Ruthless, signed Hopsin over 3 years ago and the experience has been painful to watch. Here is just a sample of the madness:
- Hopsin’s 2nd project has been shelved
- Ruthless does not promote any of Hopsin’s work
- Hopsin creates all of his music, videos, and graphic design, and doesn’t get compensated in any way
- Hopsin has developed health issues from not having the money to eat a proper diet
- It has been communicated to Hopsin that he is just a “tax write-off”
We understand that this happens to many artists, but Hopsin is fed up. He is the most talented artist that I have ever met, and now he has channeled all his rage and frustration into “RAW”. The first “RAW” promo was released today. Click here:

We understand that there could be legal ramifications for Hopsin essentially going rogue, but he feels like he has to do this, not only for himself, but for other artists in the same position. No matter what happens, Hopsin will be heard…because he is an amazing talent…and is pissed off. Hip hop needs him in the game.
If you can help in any way feel free to hit him up. Also, please share the promo with any and everyone.
Turn it up!
