I hear you Jay and Acidraptor. However, the Sactown Bs and Cs purpose is to bring people together.
Last time I did this, I had some active bangers, and some OGs lookin back at the game. It was about bussin, not dissin. I had a few joint studio sessions and it was coo seein OGs from one side mentor and show love to youngsters on the other.
The focus isnt on the bad feelings the groups have of eachother. The focus is on comin together, having some classic mobb shit in common, and settin an example for the next...
It was on the news, newspaper, etc, gang truce focus.
Also, I give hundreds of these albums to the streets. I worked in the heart of the 29th St community for 4 years, G Parkway for 4 years, and Valley Hi for 5...some of the hardest hoods in Sac (with all due respect to Oak Park). I used to give out the first Bs and Cs album to groups just to start a discussion. Its what I feel I gotta do to do my small part in guiding the streets for the better.
Heres the Amazon shnippets of The first Sac Bs and Cs album...

I needed this thread. Thanks yall. After Shlumpulicious..., maybe it was the moment...so many payin attention to the tewt now... In my opinion (as a DE listener after the work is done),
First Degree The DE "SHLUMPULICIOUS" is DEFINITELY my best album.
It was the pressure of the moment. It has my hardest lyrics Ive ever spit, the most lyrics Ive ever spit on an album, and the best collection of beats. The people that contributed stepped up to the moment also. Im not sure if I can ever top it as a solo. Shlumpulicious is so hard, and took so much outta me, I didnt know where to go after it.
Check out Shlumpulicious shnippets on Amazon...
