yeah again I don't know anything about them musically but that just makes intuitive sense - a new generation of punk kids got into rap & were buying Ruthless 12"s & tapes at swap meets when those guys would have been first drinking beer in the garage and teaching themselves to play. really deeply syncretic moment in music out there, cf also Body Count who people don't seem to rep for but it was part of this ~mood~ imo that there were points of contact between scenes/styles/movements
a mood which I'd argue is less likely to get traction now because of the internet & the way growth at a local level, while still possible, is something you have to fetishize & consciously pursue as opposed to a bunch of guys in southern California sifting through the shit that's come across their radar that's interesting to them
