| - Rucka's music is world famous for its message of unequal rights. Rucka himself is known to have an addiction to crack, among other drugs love of social justice and racial inequality. Rucka has spent time in North Korea and formed a special bond with the people there. Upon returning to the States after his 16 year hiatus in the DPRK, Rucka released his first song, "Ima Korean" spreading awareness of the North Korean immigrants' struggle for inequality in modern America. Rucka released several more Asian Rights songs before touring the Soviet Union. It was there that he found inspiration for his next song. Inspired by the struggle for LGBT rights in the Soviet Union, upon his return to America Rucka released the song "Russia is Gay". This song's release inadvertently brought devastation. Vladimir Makarov, upon hearing the song unleashed devastation in a Russian airport and in effect caused the Modern Warfare 2 (MWII) in which thousands of gay people lost their lives. The devastation continued for Rucka after he discovered that YouTube was pulling his songs off of their website because YouTube had no interest in social justice and instead just wanted videos of dancing cats, laughing babies, or sneezing pandas. Rucka's next several songs addressed his issue with YouTube and he released an entire album titled "Me No Rikey YouTube" featuring prominant Asian celebrities such as Hu Jintao, Jackie Chan, Pikachu, and Carrot Top. The album was met with critical acclaim and rocketed to number one on the top Lebanese pop charts. More recently, Rucka has responded to the Tsunami in Japan by releasing a hit single performed along side bitchin' super star from Mars, Charlie Sheen. Although the single was met with very negative but some postivie reviews, Charlie still assured Rucka that he was winning and suggested he drink some tiger blood as well as banging 7 gram rocks.
