I figured I'd make this thread in hopes of anyone having any more Raggedy Man and, more importantly, Gravitation joints to share. I don't even know if they have any songs but it would make sense for them to have made some demos at least back around when Chino XL's Here To Save You All dropped. I find it strange that they were on that posse cut on that album and they were mentioned by Chino and by Raggedy Man many times, but I don't recall ever hearing any songs by them.

Short-lived rap group that consisted of B Wiz, Duganski, Ragedy Man, Ab-Style & Chino XL.

but then the only ones labeled as members are Chino XL, Raggedy Man, and Dj B Wiz.

Thanks to Aleph and Digital Stimulation.

Great stuff, I only knew him from his appearance on All Men Are Dogs. Can't wait to hear this material.

[Kool Max Power]

Just listened to it twice, great stuff! Another candidate for a dope Chopped Herring, Diggers With Gratitude or No Sleep EP.

While we're on the subject: What happened to DL and No Sleep? In 2011, I heard that NS was supposed to release a Mr. Live/Tony Bones EP. Just rumors?

Wait.

What?

Word, been bumpin this demo for a while. Peace to DigiStim and Verge. Hopefully someone will come out of the woodwork and tell us the history of this demo: when it was recorded, who produced it, etc. My guess is that it was B Wiz from Gravitation. Dude seemed to be the de facto in-house producer for the crew.

Don't get me hyped about a possible Live/Bones record. If they’re not counting official releases then I’d more than love to hear unheard shit from the vaults. Didn’t Tony Bones record a whole album for MCA? Somebody from NS get to work on that…

[Stieflkater]

Yeah - would love to hear a mid 90ies Tony Bones album.

B Wiz gets a lot of shouts on the RM Demo - produced...

Thank You very much! In My Army days in the mid to late ninties one of my homies from Newark used to tell me about Raggedy Man all the time. i wish Gravitation would have done more as a group, could you imagine at least an EP of songs like "Waiting To Exhale" with B-Wiz (R.I.P.) on the beats......that shit woulda been fie as Hell!

[Verge]

Oh damn, I left a comment to B Wiz on youtube just a few weeks ago askin a question, not knowing he checked out.

RIP

[aleph]

^Well, that's the question: did B Wiz check out? The fact that he's been updating his youtube channel makes it seem doubtful.

[Verge]

^oh.. good. from his youtube channel:

I know that info has been floating around, most prominently in discogs.com where they cite Chino XL as saying in a 2003 interview that he died. If the youtube B Wiz is the B Wiz, then thankfully, Chino XL or discogs is not too correct

I've got to cosign this. I was very impressed w/what I heard from Raggedy Man when he was rolling w/Positive K. The same w/Gravitation on Chino's album. Their chemistry was amazing.
