R.U.G.G.E.D. or Rowdy Unda Ground God Enjecting Dominance is the moniker for this ferocious rhyme spitter originally born in Jordan. This middle-eastern rap beast is known around the world for his vicious punchlines and lion-like presence on the mic. Rugged’s roots in HipHop started in Orlando, FL, where he was part of a pioneer local group called Napalm Federation.
He eventually met TzariZM & Synopse while freestyling in between classes at Seminole Community College. Once they linked, history was made and the Paradox Unit started their dominance in the Central Florida scene. Rugged released a solo EP “The Showdown”, arranged and mostly produced by TzariZM, back in 2002. This continued the buzz he generated at many open mics and battles he conquered in. Rugged was found killing shows and performances constantly on a regular basis hailing back and forth from Orlando to Tampa. Rugged also made a feature on a remarkably humorous jawn called “Drink Specials” that featured Celph Titled of Demigodz fame, Phil The Agony of Strong Arm Steady fame and long-time partner in crime producer/emcee, TzariZM. The track was released on Celph Titled & Apathy’s -”No Place Like Chrome” album released through Antidote Records based in the UK.
After a well needed break to settle and start a family, Rugged returned to the scene being a staple in the now world’s largest Hip Hop. With his battles receiving up to fifty thousand views on Youtube and popular websites the passion is stronger than ever as he proves that he is a contender to be dealt not so easily.
