Some of you may know this guy, Jay Electronica, but this is the essence of rap without any bullshit. And its new and it shows how great rap can be.

I guess this is the rap take on Psycho Killer or Midnight Rambler. Full on nasty old-skool Gangsta with all of the Bullshit. Guaranteed to annoy your parents.

Good grief, it'll be Too Short next..... ;-)

At the time, the Geto Boys were considered a bit "League Division 2" compared to the main playaz (ahem). They never got a UK release for starters......

This track comes from 1993 and apart from a great video, it shows the power of rap music in the lives of the group. With the impassioned line about "I live for the funk", The Lords of the Underground are unsurpassed in my opinion.
