Hit Em Up (no link necessary).
Greatest war track ever with no contest (drake v kendrick was a joke).
Probably not a good influence on things on the whole, though.

 

[rutabowa]

this track he did with Alton Ellis is way better than it has any right to be (ok ok they were not in the studio at the same time)

(flip side is some equally unlikely rocksteady/rap bootleg that works surprisingly well but not quite as good as this... I forget the artists, will be on discogs)

Im a strictly east coast man when it comes to US rap.... Dre, Tupac, not for me...Snoop the best of that bunch but theres a lot of dodgy stuff there too

If you haven't already seen this, it's brilliant.

Even my OH liked it and he'd never heard of Tupac (I know, right?).

This is a very disturbing comment.

What is it you like about male rape, in particular?

 

[Shippou-Sensei]

Apparently the bit where "the man's botton is rruined"

Which is a remarkably er.. visceral statement.

I could perhaps understand it if it was a switch up. Raping a rapist kinda thing. Not in real life but in some form of cathartic media. Not exactly healthy but I get someone being keen on that version.

Don't have enough context for his particular statement. (Goes to read some lyrics)

In fairness, only know a couple of his songs - so maybe it's a lyric rather than an ugly statement in favour of such violence...

Dunno was considerably inebriated. I'm actually meek as a lamb when it comes to any form of violence.

There is a particular lyric of his that stoops a bit lower.

Do you reckon it's a good thing to post lyrics like that, if you're not going to give any context?

No I don't. Bit embarrassed.
