Richard William Stephen Shaw (December 8, 1966 – June 9, 2019), better known by his stage name Bushwick Bill, was a Jamaican rapper.

Bushwick Bill was born Richard William Stephen Shaw on December 8, 1966, in Kingston, Jamaica.

The album received little attention and negative reviews, which led to Rap-A-Lot dropping all members from the group except for Bill and DJ Ready Red.

Prince recruited Scarface and Willie Dee, two local aspiring artists out of Texas as the second incarnation of the group.

On That Other Level was released in 1989 to much better reception, being considered a classic album and one of the earliest entries into the Horrorcore genre.

His 1998 album No Surrender...No Retreat was dedicated to his friend Gil Epstein, a Fort Bend County prosecutor who was shot dead in Houston, Texas, in 1996.
