X-Raided

X-Raided, real name Anarae Brown, was born in Sacramento and moved back and forth from Sac to his mothers homtown Waco.TX, and raised primarily in South Sacramento, CA in the Gardens community. He is a notorious gangster rapper who, shortly after releasing his 1992 debut LP Psycho Active, was convicted on murder charges. The album’s violent lyrics were cited as evidence at his trial. While in prison, X-Raided recorded another album entirely over the telephone. These recordings eventually led to 1995’s Xorcist. Unforgiven came four years later and Initiation was released in early 2001. He is serving a 31 year sentence, but he has made 12 new albums so far. A group of inmates stabbed X-Raided several times for not producing and releasing their rap album.
X-Raided has been an active member of the 23th Street Garden Blocc CRIPS since before he recorded his first album Psycho Active.
