NAS the realest rapper alive and no one does it better! still alive through it all big pac and nas the best ever! fuck what you say nobody stands a chance!
People who take rap serious should be in a damn nuthouse. Rappers make music about the environment they grew up in. Rapping about drugs and violence is nothing new. It isn't their fault the media recently picked up on hardcore rap and made it marketable.
@xL3THALityx It is but just the edited version :( btw they have false advertising when i bought it it said Explicit but when i played it it was edited?
@MetalSasquatch No, I meant the message/song is good, because its discouraging violence. And violent music does have a detrimental effect on children, but only to those who grow up in a bad environment and whose parents aren't there to guide them. I mean a kid living in a happy home suburbs in wisconsin won't be influenced by violent music. But a kid from harlem who has bad parents and lives in crime/poverty will be affected by it negatively. Studies have been done that support my claim
@champ3660 i wonder if they considered that regardless of the music, those kids you described already grow up in a violent setting ergo its not going to matter if the music is violent or not, the point is that they are already in a harsh in environment and that is what is going to cause violence. is it good? no but its reality. the fact of the matter is that a lot of rapppers rap like this because its what they went through before they made it, and its like they reach out to those who still do
shoot emm up just shoot emm up what that goes for cham3660 haha your wak hating on music yo if your really that worried bout your kids then why you even on this n e ways
@blackplaque617 No its not that simple at all. Its a violent cycle that occurs in places all over, and our children suffer for it. Don't tell me its simple. Its music that sends a message of how violent it its and how the outcome of continuing on that path will not just hurt yourself but everyone else around you.
@KaDo92 im not you winnie ass ninja,i had fam dats been through real shit,my cuzzos have been killed by random drive by killings so when i read shit like this from pussy ass faggots like you it reminds me of shit like that you digg
@oldlinedog don't listen to it if you don't like it.This song came out so long ago your young son probably wouldn't have heard it if you hadn't listened to it .
For all who are offended by the lyrical themes present in shoot em up, I must inform you that you have not understood it's true purpose and message. Nas himself has said that this song is an insightful exploration of realities present in inner-city life. The song seeks to illustrate the fact that the code of "kill, kill, kill" is all too tragically followed by those who reside in the ghetto.
I'm tired of all the people bitching about violent lyrics in rap. If someones wants to kill another they're not gonna give a fuck what Nas says about it.
Person 1: Hey that bitch boy down the street is talking shit again, let's get his ass.
Person 2: Wait, I gotta check my iPod to see what Nas says.
@TheKing0fHalo always gotta blame some one you know and most the time don't ask the person who shooting or beating there ass the person who recived it lol
(IN RE) This is what passes for MUSIC? It's like an advert on "how to get to jail". Lyrically juvenile. My young son has a more complex grasp on the "english " language. But you have a point .. The musical bar has been lowered so far down .. that even morons have to stoop to get under it. How about this for rap? My son told me this one .. please pardon me .".HERE I SIT UPON THE CRA**ER FLUSHING DOWN A GANGSTA RAPPER". I told him THAT was inappropriate .. using the word cr*p!!
@oldlinedog You don't let your son use crap? Fuck that shit your too strict, I bet your kid is going to get bullied in school because your to uptight and don't let him be free lady. By the way for the English language part I used perfect English here to prove you a point that people who listen to rap are not under educated.
@2yoyos1 so just becuz the guy is wanting to take care of his kids hes a white over bearing parent?.. probably the dumbest shit ive ever heard in my life..
Thankyou Nas for being a part of a big problem. Now young and old can post this ridiculous song on Facebook, as though it gives them street cred. There must be a lot of space left over in the heads of people who like this..Is it hard to shoot straight with 1/2 a brain? It's difficult enough raising decent children without the likes of you and yours pounding out 'cracked out' lyrics to our impressionable youth. Try READING a book. Signed, A BLACK MOM.
@oldlinedog Agreed, this song is ridiculous. But damn... Nas knows how to write and is telling a hell of am intense story. The chorus is especially just pounding in its "message" with lack of a better word.
I don't get the song, it entices violence, niggas is dead in the hood ya nah mean. This could be the opposite of R kelly I wish, I guess this is what killers listen to when they get together and reminisce on all the lives they took in the past?
I'm a thirteen year old girl that goes to a white school (but im german and spainish) and I listen to screamo, pop, and rap. This is one of my favorite songs. And I dont like this song cause of the beat or how it sounds. I actually know what they're saying and what they mean. this is real rap.
@seemsblue14 im sorry bro, but ur retarted. Drake is raw and that was a stupid example. I'd understand if u said soljah boy or sumthin. Besides back then songs didn't have to have a good beat, all they had were rhymes.
Christmas carrol drive by's?!? lol. I wrote my first real diss track to this beat. Murdered the cats I was battling to. This track go hard as hell you can't go wrong with it.
@realhiphopmusic100 if u have forgotten, those are not in the same classification as hip hop, only white man's view of hip hop as being black and somewhat rhyming, but mostly black people and a nice beat. true hip hop is the shit real hip hop lovers listen to. like your name real hip hop, thats not soulja boy, lil gayne or young money, and many others. don't mention those names. that shits pop music
