Their music is filled with spirit. I like many others cannot not get enough of this sound. Let us all sit down, and share some food, then some spiritual food together.
Ive heard this song a hundred times and I still get chills... thats some good music... 1:17, thats the sound that gets me, but the whole song is so moving and so.... so right. yes sir!
Why is there not a "love" button? This singing may be called "wailing" or "howling" but it sounds amazing and the low note at 1:18 is enough to make anybody jealous. I honestly wish I was an old black guy just so I could sing like that :)
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I take a look at my life and realize there's nothing left. 'Cause I've been blasting and laughing so long, that even my momma thinks that my mind has gone. But I ain't never crossed a man that didn't deserve it. Me be treated like a punk, you know that's unheard of.
You betta watch how ya talking, and where ya walking or you and your homies might be lined in chalk.
EHHH no. You're wrong. Accept it. Gangsta's paradise isn't an original in the first place. Like I said..
On top of that, this song, like many have already said, is a folk song from NINETEEN-THIRTY-ONE (1931) If ya can't read.....
Coolio wasn't even born. He was born in 1963.. Go away, cos no one likes you. You don't like the song for whatever reason, or you just like starting fights online, cos you can't do it in real life, go do it on a Justin Bieber video. Take my advice.
you got to go .. to the lownsome valley YOOU OOH GOOOT TO GOO .. THERE BY ...
