I dont know if this shit is true, it is a dope song, but this shit here is real [video=youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfoGISYCXmw[/video] I know cause this is talking about my home town (Gary Indiana)
some other shit too from the 90's and 2012
This song is true, it tells the story of when he was younger trying to get in a gang, he raped and killed the women, soon to realize it was his own mother. 9:50 of pure greatness.
Well, it depends on what you're thinking about. If you're going solely off of what he's rapping about, his content, then he's amazing. If you want to go into lyricism and such, he really isn't anything too special. Definitely not bad, though. My comment saying that this is his only good song was directed towards the fact that Dance with the Devil is the only song of his that I would bother downloading.

I'm not referring to rappers today, I'm referring to rappers in general. While his lyrics may be better in what he's actually talking about (content), the complexity and creativity of his rhymes aren't too great, and at times it seems as if you can already tell what he's going to say because his rhymes are that obvious. What made "old school" rap so great was because, at the time, if you weren't a good, original lyricists, you weren't considered a good rapper. Some of the greatest lyricists were Rakim, Treach, KRS-One, and Melle-Mel, to name a few. Just about any well-known rapper from the 80s and 90s was a skilled lyricist (save for the G-Funk people, they were aiming for something else).
This song isn't true, the only reason he said it was before was so people would absorb the message of the song more. #DontliveTheThugLifeOrYouEndUpFuckinYoMama
