San Diego, CA – September 13, 2018
After serving 26 years in prison for his role in a 1992 gang- related homicide committed when he was a minor, Anerae Brown will be released from Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility on Friday, September 14, 2018.
Brown, recording under the stage name X-Raided, released his debut album Psycho Active in 1992 on Black Market Records. A member of Sacramento’s notorious 24th Street Garden Block Crips, a seventeen year old Brown was charged in 1992 and subsequently convicted of first degree murder in 1996. He was sentenced to 31 years to life.
Brown continued to release music despite his incarceration, becoming the subject of stories in the Sacramento Bee and Los Angeles Times, as well as having articles written about him in publications such as Playboy, The Source, and Vibe. Brown’s project The Unforgiven Vol 1 is considered a classic rap album according music critics. Brown has been described as “one of the most underrated rappers ever” by Genius.
Brown had many ups and downs during his incarceration, including a failed attempt on his life that was captured on camera and posted online.
Brown became a positive force in prison, making donations to charities and supplying music equipment for the music program on Echo Facility at RJDCF. He has also worked with Tender Loving Canines Assistance Dogs’ POOCH program, advancing to the level of mentor, facilitating groups and instructing other prisoners on how to train service animals for wounded warriors and children with autism.
On May 1, 2018, Brown, who qualified as a youth offender under penal code 3051, was found suitable for parole by the Board of Parole Hearings. On September 4, 2018 the BPH was notified that Governor Jerry Brown would take no further action in Mr. Brown’s case.
Brown is currently the subject of a project being filmed by producer Scott Sternberg of Scott Sternberg Productions. Brown will continue to serve as a member of the Offender Administered Rehabilitative Services committee co-founded with Lyle Menendez and others. They are currently working on a variety of restorative justice programs with Professor Allen Mobley of San Diego State University’s Project Rebound.
“I’m looking forward to spending time with my family,” said Anerae Brown. “I have a lot of new material coming. This is a huge blessing. I’m ready to get to work.”

What happened to him in Salinas Valley?
He was set up by the prison guards (green wall), and placed on a yard were his enemies were housed causing a major life threatening situation. He then tranfered to another prison from the hole.
X & Lynch should do a new collab album…?
White Freemasons judges are always taking side dealers to prosecute. He served enough time, let him go!!!
On my second and hopefully last term in prison, i had the pleasure of working with the lifer program in prison. I got to be a part of a mock hearing where I asked questions, checked for accountability, and gave my hones opinion on what I thought. I got to see 27 men who had life sentences, get out of prison. I just want to give a special shout out to X-Raited and congratulate him on his return home. Its crazy thinking about listening to his music at 15 years old, watching the controversy unfold, see him get sentenced to life, supported his unforgiven album, went to Salinas Valley State Prison as he was transferring, i got out, had a family, went back, and now finally he is home. Wow, a lot has changed, and a lot of life happened while he has been away. My words to X-Raided are:” Now its time to live your life. Make memories, don’t forget were you have spent your young adult life, and enjoy yourself my brotha. His bless.
