  • Dice Raw is a hip-hop artist associated with The Roots, and one of the founding members of musical group Nouveau Riche. In 2000, Dice Raw recorded his solo debut album, Reclaiming the Dead on MCA Records. Despite his young age, Philadelphia MC, song writer, and Raw Life/Black Inc CEO Dice Raw is steeped in hip-hop history. A longtime protégé of Philadelphia group The Roots, he hooked up with the band while still in high school after Kelo, a member of the group's production team, spotted him in a local talent show. The group quickly took the young rapper under their collective wings and decided to bring his talent along slowly. He made his debut in "The Lesson, Pt. 1. " Soon after, he made a name for himself with distinct cameos on "Episodes" and "Adrenaline," where his hard-hitting style complemented the heady rhymes of Roots leader Black Thought. Dice Raw has made several guest appearances on several mixtapes. He made an appearance in fellow band member and beatboxer Scratch's first solo album "Embodiment of Instrumentation". Jenkins recorded vocals for the entrance theme of WWE superstar Kung Fu Naki. The track is titled "Kung Fu San", and samples Carl Douglas's Kung Fu Fighting, and is available on Voices: WWE The Music, Vol. 9. Additionally Jenkins has been in the studio functioning as co writer and producer for The Roots, in addition to working on his own material. In May 2010, Dice released his first solo single in ten years entitled "100" off of his upcoming solo project "The Greatest Rapper Never". The single is a digital release and was made available on iTunes.
