Team RNS strike back with Slick Rick. Its an unmastered
version of his upcoming album. We had to shoot Slick Ricks
manager to get this for you. But u know - we do everything
for your ears. Take care now and enjoy this really early

A few words about the bullshit that went down with our
gay competition today regarding Nas.  About 3 weeks ago, RNS
released what was supposed to be the final retail version of
Nas - I Am.  This was quite a feat, considering that the
doesn't even hit stores until April 6.  It appears that Sony
MAY have cut three of the tracks from the version of the
album that was ripped at that time, and added one track
(which was already ripped back in January and has hence been
circulating on the internet and streets for months).  Now,
today, our competition makes asses out of themselves and
decides to rip what they claim is the truly final retail
version of I Am (which it may very well be).  This sounds
great and all, until you realize that they're trying to
compel the MP3 end-user to download an album which has LESS
songs than the one ripped by RNS weeks ago.  What's wrong
with this picture?  That's great that you were finally able
to get your hands on such a hot release; too bad you have to
dupe RNS three weeks later in order to provide the public
with a song they already had and to deprive them of songs
that Sony may have had to cut for legal (sample clearance)
reasons.  Yay for our typically gay competition.

Now you see why we constantly claim RNS is the best.  We say
it because we are.  BIATCH.

Rabid Neurosis was established in 1995 and since 1996 we have
been dedicated to bringing the highest possible quality to
the mp3 community.  It is rumored that we only rip rap, hip
hop, and r&b, well, this is simply a rumor, granted that
this type of music is the mainstream at the moment, so of
course a lot of this genre is going to get done, but we do
other types of music (rock, ska, punk, techno, bootlegs, pop,
etc) as well.  Currently we are not looking for any members
unless you have some exceptional background in either the mp3
warez or iso scene and/or have something exceptional to offer
to the group (pre-release ripper, t3/linux/30gb+ us/euro Site
Op, or hardware supplier) if you fall into that category drop
by #rns on efnet and talk to one of the seniors about joining
or mail the president Al Capone (Capone@rns.org) note: we are
NOT seeking any artists or couriers period.

[Other News]

Zero Music Inc. is RNS's official couriers (irc/ext ftp). The
reason for doing this is that it was felt by us, that RNS
should be focusing on releasing and not the mass distribution
of our music, they will handle the xdcc's and ftp couriering
to sites outside of RNS to benefit those not within the group
