Steve Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 I've heard that too. It makes sense, cos they can't just assume that a name isn't real, right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubba Dutchdj Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Considering all the copyright YouTube infringements the ruck use to pull its hard not think he hasn't pulled the same childish act and snitched to FB about Richie's profile, such a weak immature thing to do (IF he did) As eluded to earlier in the thread, Ruck = narcissism gone mad, he ain't getting the respect or control he craves on his terms so he acts like a self righteous foot stomping child whose seemingly so desperate to prove to the world something we actually are fully aware of already and the inevitable siege mentality rears its ugly head. On the flip side I'd bet the people who he's close to get nothing but peace and love from him. Personally I'd easily put him in my own top 5 most important contributors to the scene, a lot of others would to! Yet he can't handle others getting any credit for stuff he feels he inspired and worse still he can't cope with people praising alternative interpretations of scratchy stuff, only a mental in balance can make someone whose so talented so fucking good at making a twat out of them selfs. Considering how bad he's got it I'd be surprised if he didn't have some form of narcissistic abuse from someone close to him when he was growing up, that shit gets past thru generations of family. None of the above is a good excuse for being a Dic to others, people who beat narcissism are to be respected, others who indulge in it need to be understood, which is pretty much impossible. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 just had a thought, anyone think he might be a PR genius? he's just got a 6 page thread out of this without even trying. i'm not saying anyone is gonna go out and buy his stuff from this, but if his aim is to be talked about, then he's clearly doing things right.

Guest petesasqwax Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Jimmy - are you suggesting that if he was British and on this site his username would be Kuntie Hopkins? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubba Dutchdj Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 The ego massaging exercise of the scratchgod pr release did make me wonder at the time if was all jus promo hype. IMO the ruck is jus being himself, we may be talking about him but ultimately his attitude makes me wanna support his music less not more.

Guest petesasqwax Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 To be completely honest, irrespective of his ego, the main thing preventing me from having any interest in purchasing anything he's putting out these days is that it's shit clearly too next level for my ears[ THIS POST IS BROUGHT TO YOU IN CONJUCTION WITH ((((((((((MINDRAY)))))))))) ENTERPRISES ] 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest petesasqwax Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 What if Rucker was always Ritchie all along and this whole thing has been a cunning ploy to sell t-shirts? I'm pretty sure "Ricci Rucker" and "Ritchie Ruftone" are the same if you spell them in ancient Mayan pictograms or monogrammed handkerchiefs... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, some of that stuff was used by pioneers once... He had both the genius and money to go on eBay and buy all the classic 80s synths and drum machines that everyone else has been using and saying are good for decades. That takes a really unique mind that we could never comprehend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest petesasqwax Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Matt - is there any truth to the rumour that he's currently holed up in a Sacramento studio working hard on a Bruce Haack remix LP (for a French label) which will g out under the nom de plume 'Haack Y Sac'? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iexist Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 I wouldn't want to be called out by the Ruck. This whole beef is quite exciting for the scene though. May be one for the books! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
