i was the first muthafucka to write about sham on this board. I jeard his demo tape in the barbershop. THAT is the best tape i've hear dinyears and I only heard five or six tracks.
I just finished postin onanother thread about gangsta rap or somethin. somebody was askin who is the most gangst or somethinlike that. I haven't heard anything that REALLY impressed me since Pac dropped my Ambitionz. I thought I was just out of it. Dont get me wrong, I heard some cool rappers that got the bay area style, but something is always missing. Well, I wish I woulda had saw this message first because I swear to god that i think you are talkin about the people i heard in the barbershop that day.
I remember two songs the most
One song was about "I put that on my momma, I put that on my son, I put that on my cousin, Nigga, I put that on my gun." Man, whoever that nigga was is riDIC ulous. Potna at the top said he did a review. who was that song "I Put That On" It was the best song I heard. That shit was so simple. Niggas say it all the time, to make a song on it and make it bump... damn
The other song was about some real gangsta shit.
Dude was sayin"I give a FUCK bout you niggas, betta find some duck bout you niggas, when I bust by you niggas, aint no love by you niggas!" Man.... it's hard to explain, that shit made me squirm. Made niggas itchy,hella uncomfortable. Anyway, like Isaid, I dont usually by shitm, but I will be the first to slide that. Where can you get it.
I am no profesional critic, so fuck what yall talkin about. That shit is in the trunk. the one song about the "freeway siccness" had somuch BASS in it..it sounded like that old way tooshort used to stack his songs like in dope fiend beat. but it was just pounding back to back. boom,boom,boom,boom,boom,boom! BOOM! BOOM! Man, that shit made me want to cry. people ask why the bay fell off why niggas dont sell. Its because of weak ass music. niggas like me who used tobuy shit 10 years ago dont buy a muthafuckin thang. WHy? Cuz i got standards. is sham onthis board. if so, I wrote you a post talkin about my little homie at Richmond High.I wrote a letter on the website and never heard back. Man, i'm tellin you if you put his shit out you will make some money. He can do one of them beats justice. Fuck with him. let me know what to do. whats the email or address to sham.
lastthing I got to say. there is this one ling about "Sombody eplain to me about shit I aint got"
Dude says: I dont smoke crack and I dont fuck wit hop...
somethin simthin.
Then he says the line that had niggas in there talkin. Matter of fact when I was inthere today different fools was still talkin about it and tried to get him to sell the demo. Anyway, dude said the line of the year. I remember it becuase niggas was talkin about it today as being the realest line we have ever head in a rap song. Dude said," I can't stand my baby momma, fuck rap songs nigga dats real, bitch can't stand on her own two feet, broke as fuck all in my grill. " next verse he sayd"Left a bad bitch wit a FAT job -for my baby momma - thats a mistake because you know the ho aint nuthin but drama my family hate her cuz she start SHIT... can't get a check witout the DA takin half of IT"
(damn I remember this shit. that says something rigt there)
I guess it was what he was sayin with the WAY he was spittin it. Today we decided that it was sham on that last song, but niggas really dont know. The big thing is that it is FINALLY somebody from the bay that i will give uo 20 dolalrs for. Call me sting, but besides 40, i dont even THINK about buyin shit. The cds that ARE good only have 3 good songs onem. Niggas think you stupid. three muthafuckin songs....
last thing is this. I am not a hater. I am just saying that whoever gave those promos to the barbershop was a mistake. Niggas is tryin to get it and they is fina bootleg the FUCK out that record. Even though it's only about 8 somgs (thats what D-Boy was sayin) it is still hella tight and niggas will flip it for 5 dollars a clip. Man I was in there and they was serious as fuck. I guess you gotta give demos, but thats some risky shit. He wasn't sellin it, but niggas was gonna break him off for it. Howlong will that last. Niggas is niggas and that cd is as good as burnt. I been knowin him since we was little kids. He's a good cat. He said the reason he hasn't sold it is because word got around the town (the rich) because hella artists I guess is from richmond. and he is gettin people in there tolisten to the shit. so he think it is helping his business b/c people want to hear it but he wont let em stay in unless they are a customer. But that is gonna play out soon. I dont think bootleggin a cd is what's killin a industry. i just dont understand giving a promo to a shop in ghetto ass NorthRichmond where you know niggas is shiesty. SHit wont be new forever. WHen do it actually come out.
