RA evaluates his tumultuous youth with pride now that he’s survived it. “Getting past the madness,” he says, makes him feel accomplished. He once viewed his past as shameful, but now recognizes that he was simply doing what was best for him at the time. He feels fortunate that he’s still here, still creating, still striving. His bucket list includes collaborations with legends like Big Daddy Kane and LL Cool J, directing a modest film, and widening his artistic reach — goals he believes are still within reach.
