I never in a million years thought I would say it, but I actually kind of like this song. Believe me I have no place in my life for Rap music but something about this one just catches me. I have no idea what the lyrics really mean but the music and hook and pretty cool and the whole production is kind of a neat idea. Give it a listen and have an open mind ...

CHANGES

Note - As near as I can tell it contains words like whore, gunz, n*gga's, gangsta's, etc. All the usual stuff. If this offends you don't listen.

I'm not opposed to rap on it's face, mostly though, if you've heard one you've pretty much heard them all...

... sorta like Air Supply and Moody's chords...

So do you suppose they are paying Bruce Hornsby his royalties for ripping off the riff?

Not bad for rap music, but the interesting thing is that in brooklyn, this kind of music is mainstream, while country music and its ilk are counter culture. Weird, never thought I'd be part of the underground.

The song is (or was) by Tupac (I think). Speaking of the rapper, it's just amazing that he continues to have albums and materials released, years after his death(?)

hmmm...
