have produced 2 critically acclaimed albums. His first album 'Freedom/Resurrection'(2005)
was given 4 out of 5 stars by the Tampa music newspaper, Creative Loafing, who described
his production as 'rolling, minimal and engaging'. They praised Rahim's rap style as 'a
clean, gut-driven delivery that lies somewhere between Dr. Dre and Biggie...(it is)...what
really draws the listener in..'. Rahim's 2nd album, 'Travel Properly', produced the mixshow
smash hit 'John Horse', that went to #2 on the college mishow charts Rapnetwork and Rap
Attack Lives. The album was also applauded by critics. It was given an 8 out of ten star
