1 10

Long Beach legend, RBX, has finally released his comeback solo album, Hibernation Shivers, on all digital platforms alongside a limited edition vinyl release.

The new album, produced by Labcabin Records founders, Sccit & Siavash the Grouch, dropped everywhere June 28. 

Hibernation Shivers is spearheaded by RBX’s highly anticipated response to DJ Clark Kent in the albums latest single titled “The Shivers” featuring fellow Long Beach emcee KXNG Crooked & up-and-coming Los Angeles emcee/producer Sccit. 

RBX proclaimed, “when a bear come outa hibernation, the first thing he do is shiver.. then that bring on the heat.. and after the blood start flowin, now it’s time to eat. We had to shiver on some haters one time to let ‘em know we still here, ya dig?”

“The Shivers” single is just one of many joints on the album that contain appearances from hip-hop royalty. RBX recruited some of the very best from the golden era to usher in his Hibernation Shivers album. The long awaited Labcabin Records release contains additional appearances from MC Eiht, Spice 1, Ras Kass, Tha Dogg Pound, Krayzie Bone, Project Pat, Fatlip, Cold 187um, and Butch Cassidy to name a few.

“We aimin for nothin but classix … so when you press play, just let it ride out til the very end. That’s whats missin from the game,” said Sccit. Siavash added, “RBX is the hardest to ever do it. Nobody has a voice like he does. We always wanted to see a RBX album on Death Row Records .. that’s the sound we went for on this one.“

RBX most recently appeared on Tha Dogg Pound’s new single, “Who Da Hardest?” featuring the all-star Death Row Records cast and produced by DJ Premier. “A bit of an appetizer before delivering the full course meal,” insisted RBX

[WATCH] Dr. Dre Warned RBX About Taking Gifts From Suge Knight

Screen Shot 2022 12 29 at 10.35.42 AM

In an exclusive interview with The Art of Dialogue, former Death Row rapper RBX talked about a circumstance in 1995 when he was gifted a brand new 750 BMW by Death Row CEO Suge Knight. While the deep voiced “A.WO.L” rapper initially accepted the luxury gift, his lawyer warned him about accepting gifts from such a precarious boss.

“Everybody thought I was weird for a minute. And the reason they was thinking I was weird was ’cause I be turning down shit,” RBX said. “Somebody called me, boom. [They said] ‘Come get this Beamer, X.’ I said, ‘What?’ They said, ‘Suge bought you a brand new 750!’ Mind you, I had just seen Snoop about a week prior. Snoop had a cold 850. I told Suge I want me a black 750.”

He continued the story, saying, “[My lawyer] say, ‘Where you get a Beamer from?’ I say, ‘Suge.’ He say, ‘Mm-hmm. Did they give you the bill of sale to the Beamer?’ I say no. He say, ‘Do you have registration for the Beamer?’ I say no. He said, ‘What do you have in the muthafuckin’ BMW that says that you have permission to drive it?’ I say, ‘Nothing. I got the key!’”

RBX said that it wasn’t long after that he remembered the wisdom of mentor and Death Row in-house producer Dr. Dre. “Dre was part of the label, and every now and then he’ll give you a jewel,” he said. “You gotta listen to him when he say some shit ’cause he not gon’ keep saying it to you. He gon’ say it once and if you don’t catch it then you probably won’t catch it. He was saying something like, ‘If it ain’t registered in your name, it’s not yours. It belong to somebody else.’ And that just stuck. So kudos to Dre.”

Today in Hip-Hop History: Dr. Dre Dropped His Debut Solo LP ‘The Chronic’ 29 Years Ago

tumblr ce8fba46b8e329f34c5a58eed2872b01 1dc61595 1280

On this date in 1992, Dr. Dre released his debut solo album The Chronic on his own Death Row Records imprint, which was distributed by Priority Records. This album introduced the world to the Death Row experience, G-Funk infused Hip Hop and the one and only Snoop Doggy Dogg.

Recorded in Death Row Studios in L.A., The Chronic album was created under the influence of some of the most powerful marijuana in the United States during that time, hence, the title. It was also fueled by Dre’s relentless passion to show his former crewmates from N.W.A. that he could make it on his own as well as prove to the world that he could do more than just make dope beats.

Timeless tracks where Dre shined on the lyrical side include “Let Me Ride”, “Nuthin’ But A “G” Thang” along with Snoop, and “The Day The Niggaz Took Over”, where Daz, Dre, and RBX went in about racial tensions during the 1992 L.A. riots.

Even with its conceptual perfection and trailblazing sound, which left an open market for artists like The Dogg Pound, 213, and Warren G., The Chronic is still Dre’s second best-selling album behind The Chronic: 2001, which went sextuple platinum.

Salute to everyone at Death Row Records who contributed to this gangsta rap classic! Cali love!!
