Review
Rising shows some musical growth from Pigwalk, although Stuck Mojo still lose their musical focus on several occasions over the course of the album. Bonz's raps still seem a bit high and whiny to have the same crushing impact as his band's music, and he wisely varies his approach, trying different vocal styles. Initial pressings of the CD included a CD-R copy of the video for the title track featuring several WCW wrestling stars. ~ Steve Huey, Rovi| Rising (1976 Album by Rainbow) | |

Rising is the third album by Atlanta rap metal group Stuck Mojo. Unlike the previous two, this album found considerable mainstream success, most likely due to the music video for the song "Rising", which featured members of WCW Diamond Dallas Page, Raven and The Flock. This video received considerable airplay as well as being played on WCW Monday Nitro. The WCW United States Championship belt is pictured on the cover.
Rising sold over 3 million copies, becoming Century Media's highest selling album until 2004, when Lacuna Coil's album Comalies broke that record. This album features a slightly larger lean towards hip hop, a notable exception after the aggressive Pigwalk album.
