The songs that were already released were fire (Raise the Dead, Wake Up, OJ, Act Different). But there really isn’t anything else on the album that beats those songs.
Not too many dudes in their mid 40s still dropping heat. Rap (especially gangster rap) is a young dudes game. But yea - everything after EBK4 (including Lynch by Inch) didn’t do anything for me. Be nice if Bleezo and Sav Sicc dropped more material. They ain’t got no talent in the Gardens anymore?
What’s crazy is it looks like there was a lot of funk between the Gardens and all the clicks that were operating out of G-Parkway. But now, you have all the Starz seemingly clicked up with T-Nutty, etc.
Stumbled across this paper which is really detailed on the history of gangs in Sacramento as well as current events/cases.
Looks like it was done by a college student for an assignment or something. But man, it is really detailed! Kind of interesting. Lots of material to read through. It looks...
Who yall got?
Yall think Gavin Newsome is the right guy for the job?
Most people I know (regardless of politics) think SF has gone to utter and complete shit (literally - shit all over the streets from homeless/drug users).
Hard to think that the guy who was in charge of SF and a big reason...
Seems like the entire Bay is now gentrified. Most low income people have gotten pushed to the Central Valley. Which is why places like Stockton and Modesto have gotten worse over the past 10 years.
Does he have any stipulations on his release? Can he not go to certain areas and affiliate with certain kind of people?
Is he planning on working with any of the up and comers from the Gardens?
This is gonna sound selfish but itd be nice if someone caught him coming out those gates on camera. Not even sure if X would want that - but it’d be great footage.
Ill admit the album has grown on me a little more. I find it to be "good" really the whole way through. Just press play.
While I can just press play, I dont find really any of it to be "great". Some albums are great 50-75%, this one is good 100% of the way.
It stays in my rotation - just not...
I really didn’t like it at first - but Redemption has really grown on me.
Still don’t think it tops 90059 tho.
Watching that 3-part series on YouTube really helped grab my attention to the album after just skimming through it.
I know dude got 30 to Life - but is there any unreleased music that is going to be released?
Shit - is there any mp3s available of the Guilty Till Proven Innocent album that is on Youtube?
Those songs are hard as fuck! Dude was definitely the best off up BankedUp. Crazy how he got life just...
