fa sho! I'm swooping it. These niggaz need to recognize EIHT still doing gangsta sh!t. EIHT AIN'T NEVER SWITCHED HIS STYLE. These new jacks be dissing and saying he 'old school' or 'washed up' need to recognize that them new niggaz that they listening to stole they style from niggaz like EIHT, CMW, NWA, SCC, etc...
Yeah he a tight artist to me but the only thing is Eiht will never be as popular as he once was before. Because many younger cats I know don't feel him no more they said he stuck in the 90's, they also said the same about Spice, and the rest.
The problem is the younger generation don't know how diverse this music shit really is. There isn't a main sound like they think. Muthafuckas just go by the sound on the radio and think thats what rap music is but they fell to realize artist like Eiht and etc is spitting on what is reality in the streets. Life isn't all about clubbin and getting crunk and getting head, and how much jewels you got on your wrist. they fell to realize there is still murder, hustling, Police Brutality and banging in the streets. I got to really agree with Eiht in his interview. I remember when east coast rap was just about metaphors, long words and rhyme schemes now its about gangsta shit. on some real shit Gansta rap and gang banging was a art in the West. Example I'm a Camron fan but the truth is he did bite off the west because I remember he had songs about chasing hoes , Horses and carriages now he has songs like Killa Cam, Bust Ur Guns, and Dead Motherfuckas.
A Major change don't yall agree?
