i love the "this is real hip hop" comments.... in case people don't realise hip hop in it's purest form was really people like grandmaster flash and afrika bambaata. it's about break beats, rapping, tagging, and breaking... it's about expression and anyone who is expressing themselves in one of the four forms is real hip hop in my opinion
I'd just like to say that all of you are obviously too young to remember what hip hop used to be like. Arguing about Lil Wayne on here is pointless. The game has changed too much to compare them. I love old school hip hop, and grew up listening to people like Warren G, Wu Tang Clan, Cypress Hill, Dr. Dre, Nate Dogg, Jay-Z etc. But I also like newer stuff like Lil Wayne, The Game, Jay Z's new stuff etc. If your a true music fan you will understand that a genre has to evolve.
@MrLovefile He hasn't got any lines in this at all, sounds more like you're trying to cover up that you thought was same person, but you now only just realized.

If it isn't a cover than what is it? It certainly isn't original....deuche bag trying to start youtube beef...get a life you loser
I SHOT THE SHERIFF is quite simply 1 of the greatest songs ever written in the history of the universe, which is Y it's been a hit 4 Bob Marley, Eric Clapton, & via sample, 4 EPMD & Warren G, among others....The song will continue 2 B covered & sampled, & continue 2 B a hit, over & over & over til the end of time.
@Tarantulisimo you seem to be a fan of this song but if your a ture fan would know who did it first i hate fake people im old school and know were most old school rap come from $t@rf!$h!h
@pmkstarfish He never said he was 'old school' he said its a great song and knows who sung it. Maybe u should think before u go aroun calling people fake MAYBE he does know who the person who Did it first.maybe he doesnt either Way he never said he was old School.and just cuz he likes a song doesnt meen he needs to know everything about it
@lilwayneisourlordful have some fuckin respect this guy is one of the greatest rappers and g-funk collaboraters of all time the only reason people havnt heard of him is because the shitty music of today has pushed aside gud rap+hip hop/oldskool for this new school bullshit. that village idiot of rap lil wayne shud be grateful rappers like warren g and nate dogg opened doors for the rap today

Warren G is not about "Gangsta Rap" and never was:
Warren had had about enough with the "gangsta" label, he told People. "Gangsta this. Gangsta that," he said. "They label us animals, but that ain't me. If you gotta label me, then label me Warren Griffin Jr., an all-around cool guy."
