FAO Snurx / Rap fans
What artists do you listen to?
Ive spent a hilarious morning on AZ lyrics reading rap lyrics, in particular, 50 cent and 2pac.
Such visionary titles as "that aint gangsta" and "you aint a gangsta".
Im not going to download anything you tell me to, but im interested in seeing the subject matter of the rappers / hip hoppers you listen to.

funny thing is that most arent 'gangsta' how they claim to be in their lyric i.e. Eazy-E (his DvD is called A Legacy of a Gangsta)

well, Easy E was a member of NWA...likely the most notorious GANGSTA rap group around....he was portrayed as a gangsta on the albums, so that's probably why it's called 'Legacy of a Gangsta'

De La Soul are goodgoodgood. Inspectah Deck, despite the cool spelling, isn't too bad either.

* This was Big L's first single, released in 1994
Intro w/ Nas samples:
Ayo Showbiz, I had this bugged out dream last night that I
was the Devil's son, B, I was doing some ill ****...
"When I was 12, I went to hell for snuffing Jesus" (Repeat 3x)
"I'm waving automatic guns at nuns"
L's a rebel, on a higher level, go get a shovel
Cause I'm the only son of the mother****ing devil
It's a fact I'm living foul, black
Niggas should have known I was sick from the **** I did a while back
Cause being bad I couldn't stop
When I was in pre-school, I beat a kid to death with a wooden block
Faggot niggas I was back slapping
I realized that every time I got mad something bad happened
A nigga hit me with a can of beer, then he ran in fear
Later they found him hanging from a chandelier
Enemies I be bucking quick
My moms know who I am because she know who she was ****ing with
On my skull the 666, no tricks
When I catch fits, my mom picks up the crucifix
And I kill chumps for the cheapest price
I'm rolling with Satan, not Jesus Christ
Enemies I got several done
Big L straight from hell, the mother****ing Devil's Son
"When I was 12, I went to hell for snuffing Jesus" (Repeat 3x)
"I'm waving automatic guns at nuns"
It's Big L and I'm all about taking funds
I'm a stone villian known for killing and raping nuns
Ayo I even kill handicapped and crippled bitches
Look at my scalp real close and you'll see triple sixes
There's no doubt I'm all about a dollar
I just signed a lifetime contract with the funeral parlor
This kid that owed me dough, I didn't take his life
Instead I tied him up and made him watch me rape his wife
One nigga cold tried to diss me and that **** is risky
The nigga took a swung but he missed me
So I popped off mad chunks not junk
I spit in his mother****ing face and then walked off
Once a hottie shot me with a shottie
I died but then I came back to life in another body
The way I'm living is dead wrong
I'm a devil from Hell without the tail or the red horns
Killing is fun, I'm #1 with a gun
Front and get done, cause you can't run from the Devil's Son
"When I was 12, I went to hell for snuffing Jesus" (Repeat 3x)
"I'm waving automatic guns at nuns"
The Big L is strictly gunplay
I run through church and pistol-whip the priest every Sunday
Once I put out the crazy order
I sent niggas to kill Tone, his mom, and his baby daughter
I'm living up to my extortion image
I be stalking Lennox, catching more bodies than abortion clinics
A kid tried to take L out
Shot me with a tech, I just laughed and spit the shell out
Next I took his gun then he dropped to his knees
With ease I made him freeze, he begged me please not to squeeze
But I ain't the type to bust, I just sniped a bus
Gunclap *bang* Another nigga bites the dust
Shorts I'm taking none
Misbehave and get sent to the grave by the Devil's Son
Word, Big L the mother****ing Devil's Son is definitely in effect
Giving a shout out to all the murderers, thieves, armed robbers
Serial killers, phychos, lunatics, crackheads, mental patients
Mental retards, and a special shoutout to all the niggas with AIDS, peace
"When I was 12, I went to hell for snuffing Jesus" (Repeat 3x)
"I'm waving automatic guns at nuns"

i.e. a very nice hardcore underground rap song ^^

I don't think Snurx is into 'gangster' rap, but I may be mistaken. I don't think the lyrics of Snurx's rappers will be as funny as the '**** ya niggas' stuff.

Deltron 3030
Dilated Peoples
Mobbade Barn Med Automatvapen
Looptroop
Promoe
Some Dead Prez, althougth theire way to "anti-white", at least in their lyrics, and althougth they say they are not, i still don't like it that much.
Krs
Last Emperor
Talib Queli
Mos Def
Casual Brothers
Timbuktu
Chords
Cunninglylinguist (or however that's spelt)
Equiez
Africa Bambaata, Sugarhill Gang, Grandmaster Flash and most other oldskool i can come over.
Saian Supa Crew
Cypress Hill (Some)
Artifacts
Non Phixion
Arsonists
Most of that are not gangster rap, and the little that has those tendencies are not (at least not often) the "im better, **** you niggger bitch yo" type thing, more like a documentary of life on the streets. Also, this is just what fell into my mind this early, so it's not in any way a complete list or anything.
