Ratarue is more concerned with content than industry driven image, with the goal to provide the listener with the same kind of feeling received when younger. Ratarue emulates what is now considered an old school style, although, always trying to innovate and push the envelope. Raised on the greats like Tribe Called Quest, and all relevant artists in the Conscience Hip Hop movement, Ratarue makes his music because of the lack of conscience present in today’s global music industry.
Ratarue’s debut, full length, 18 song album entitled Odd Augmentation Inc. will be coming out in the Fall of 2009. Odd Augmentation, Inc took 5 years in the making and consists of varying topics ranging from abstract, lyrical, political to issues of love and loss. This album is the artist’s insane gasping for air and screaming out trying to not be seen as just another ant in the colony. His lyrical style is layered with intellectual and creative content which paints pictures and invites the listener to get lost in the songs.
