History
Abstract Rude's talent was first recognized by Fat Jack. He was soon a regular of hip hop workshop at The Good Life Cafe. However, it wasn't until he handed a tape to Mike D at Grand Royal that Abstract Rude started turning heads worldwide. This got him on the 1994 Grand Royal mixtape Mixed Drink with "Torn" and "Strength of A.T.U." In 1995, he was on Mixed Drink 2 with "Ab Dawlin" and again with "Torn" and "Strength of A.T.U."
Abstract Rude is a co-founder of the hip hop collective Project Blowed. He is prominently featured on many of its artists' releases, as well as Project Blowed and Project Blowed 10th Anniversary compilations, The Good Brothers compilation, and Fat Jack's Cater to the DJ series of albums.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“In all history no class has been enfranchised without some selfish motive underlying. If to-day we could prove to Republicans or Democrats that every woman would vote for their party, we should be enfranchised.”
—Carrie Chapman Catt (1859–1947)
“I believe that history might be, and ought to be, taught in a new fashion so as to make the meaning of it as a process of evolution intelligible to the young.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
“The history of his present majesty, is a history of unremitting injuries and usurpations ... all of which have in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world, for the truth of which we pledge a faith yet unsullied by falsehood.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
