Rob R Rock Breaks His Silence
Rob R Rock, the first vegan straight edge rapper whose 1990 song “Cruelty Free” is featured as a hidden track on Vegan Edge Hip Hop Volume II, breaks his silence in the following email.
I don’t know what to say about this except that clearly, this man has lost his fighting spirit. This culture has broken his will to resist. Don’t let it break yours.

“I don’t know you, but guessing from your URL, I think you folks used one of my songs on your vegan rap compilation? I don’t have any problem with your doing that, as I think I said at the time… but that’s not the reason for my writing…
I’m writing to ask you to please remove my mailing address from your mailing list. I’m sure you understand that I have two businesses and a family and I can’t have communications sent to me from folks under investigation from the FBI. Innocent or not, I have a responsibility as a father these days to stay as far away as trouble as humanly possible. Something I was not always wise enough to do in the past, in many different ways… but I digress….
I do wish you the best in your ongoing struggle with this — my best advice (which I’m sure you’ve heard from others) is get a good lawyer!! Being innocent is not enough; good legal representation makes all the difference in the world. Freedom – use it or lose it!
peace out – Rob R”
