Description
San Francisco legend Baldhead Rick tells Dregs One about his experience in the Bay Area rap scene after seeing his brother Cougnut rise to fame and his friend Cellski selling tapes in Lakeview, the neighborhood they all grew up in. Baldhead's very first song was with his group UNLV on Master P's classic compilation, West Coast Bad Boyz. From there, Baldhead was featured on hundreds of songs, albums and compilations, including 17 Reasons on Goldtoes' Black-N-Brown Entertainment. Along the way, Baldhead shares stores about encountering E-40, B-Legit, RBL Posse, and Totally Insane. Since Cougnut's passing in 2001, Baldhead has worked to keep his brother's legacy alive.
