March 30, 2010 marked the release of “Cocaine Cowboy” -- the single and music video. Shot over a two-day span in the heart of downtown Saskatoon, the video was released to rave reviews and critical acclaim for its heart-wrenching visuals and storyline. Fast-forward to July 20, 2010 and the release of "Hard Labor: The BirthWrite Prequel" -- a polished, 6-song promotional mixtape. Boasting features from Quannum Projects recording artist Pigeon John (Los Angeles, CA -- whose music was recently featured in the TV ad campaign for the all-new 2011 Volkswagon Jetta) and Saskatoon producer Factor (whose production credits include Hollywood actor and former Dr. Dre protégé Xzibit -- host of MTV’s award-winning "Pimp My Ride" reality TV series). To top it off, September of 2010 saw the emcee embark on a 3-week tour through Kigali, Rwanda. Funded by the Saskatchewan Arts Boards "Culture on the Go" pilot program, CTV national news picked up on the artist’s journey, airing a feature story on the tour. Crossing cultures, countries and boundaries with his music was an experience that Rash will never forget.
