As for snoop dog Easy E said he was a fake ass crip......enough said. easy E was that 1 percent of society that didnt go by the law. Easy E truly lived the thug life/ crip. He rapped about how Snoop was never really know in the streets and was all an act like Ice Cube and his four year college degree.
Rap used to be more poppy. There was no gangster rap before Dre, Eazy-E, Ice Cube and all the old ass mother fuckers. You say Eazy-E proved that Dre and Snoop weren't gangster and yet E was in NWA with Dre. Rapping is just talking shit and just because someone says that someone isn't gangster doesn't mean they're not. Either way, I said Wu Tang to begin with. They're the only real gangsters in my point of view.
So getting out of the game and trying to get an education makes you non-gangster? I guess all the real gangsters still live with their mum's if they haven't killed them already
It's funny that the forum's preeminent metal elitist is owning people on hip hop. Dr. Dre was definitely no gangster. I don't know much about Snoop Game blunts are by Garcia Vega and have nothing to do with Game the rapper.
dre is far from a gangster.. kamran what do you think that since they formed a rap group together that all of NWA were 'gangsters' not even close homie eazy E was a crip while he was a teenager but he gave up the life for his career..
I never once said that he was. I'm just saying that someone else saying it in a tune meant to diss the other dude doesn't make it true because they lie in those raps. Getting an education doesn't mean you weren't in the game either. Either way, you'll never know what they've been through unless you were actually with them. You just have to rely on criminal records and even that doesn't mean everything. If they don't have one it could just mean that they're smart. If they do they're stupid or just bad motherfuckers (see Old Dirty Bastard for reference).
no.. all real gangsters have long rap sheets your obviously speaking outta ur ass edit: and talking shit about ODB? your hip hop forum pass should be revoked
Am not even trying. snoop was discredit by easy e's posse which were obviously crips on saying that even his 20st. crip never heard of a snoop. thank you
no not really.....even when sugergang hit it big grandmaster flash kept it true and tolled it how it was hence "white lines" and how it really was on the streets in NY. True but before blowing up Easy E was push dope to start ruthless records and gang banging only later to rap about it. Also Dr.Dre did the beats which any rap fan can tell you his excellent at it! so why wouldn't easy have dr.dre on the track mixer/product? as for ice cube which later on his life we can see what a great actor he is and has a four year college degree that obviously screams intelligent being. Meaning that before joining NWA he was obviously smart enough to do poetry with such great education which could easyly translate to rap. Also you can tell in Ice Cubes lyrics are more about the lifestyle then living it. no not really. am sure theres a few true gangster out there but most raps just rap about the life but not living it.
What about Too Short? He is one of greatest repers out there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izB85LUlygE
i saw some late night show where Jay Z was talking about selling crack. that's kinda gangster. i imagine Biggie Smalls was a decent gangster. and i bet at least one or two of the dawgz from bone thugz are pretty gangster.
I dislike a lot of mainstream gangster rap cause i find the people fake, and try to hard to seem gangster... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6WNnEPY1B8"]YouTube - Wu Tang Clan Ft Isaac Hayes-I Can't Go To Sleep(With Lyrics) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4QMuCEkgLo"]YouTube - Wu-Tang Clan The Heart Gently Weeps GOOD VERSION wow i haven't listened to this in awhile...
