i never thought nothin of that line i just assumed he was tryin to let people know where he's really from. Obviously a high murder rate aint nothin to be proud but it is a reality, i dont think people need to be shocked bout ea-ski talkin bout it i think they need to be shock that so many people are gettin killed. People got they prioties fucked up, ea-ski is just making music , but people really are gettin blasted out in oakland , focus on the real problem not some lyric in a potery.
