"Ruff & Tuff" (C-Walkers Mix) was the first of three versions released by Leon Danger & The C-Walkers, serving as a bold, no-holds-barred response to their ongoing rivalry with Tha Ricky Dawson Phonk Band, particularly aimed at Ricky Dawson’s boastful track "Tha King." The C-Walkers decided to craft individual versions of "Ruff & Tuff," allowing members to express their own musical taunts. The C-Walkers Mix hit the streets of Los Angeles with explosive energy, quickly gaining national traction due to the rawness and intensity of the feud.

The track kicks off with an infectious funky guitar riff from Steve Sailor, followed by Bobby "Boogieman" Brown’s smooth yet brash rap-style vocals, boasting about the group’s strength and the toughness of their Crip street ties. Meanwhile, frontman Leon Danger fuels the intensity with energetic ad-libs and fiery interjections. Bobby’s verses unapologetically antagonize their rivals with cutting disrespect, adding to the personal nature of the feud.

The song's groove reaches new heights with soulful horns from Jerome "Brass Boss" Brown and Kenny "Horn Hammer" Hill and ends with masterful guitar solos from Steve, keeping the musicianship top-tier despite the track’s confrontational tone. The funky rhythms, combined with the biting lyrics and infectious energy, made the track an instant hit across Los Angeles and beyond.

While intended as a direct message to Tha Ricky Dawson Phonk Band, "Ruff & Tuff" became more than a diss track—it evolved into an anthem for the streets, resonating deeply with those entrenched in the street lifestyle of the late '70s. With its explosive energy, relentless groove, and unapologetic swagger, the song cemented Leon Danger & The C-Walkers as both musical powerhouses and street legends.
