i know mello came before pac with this beat, but i've always loved this song because i was listening to pac's music heavily when i learned the message of this song firsthand.
@jbthegrinder THEY SAID HE WAS FULL OF THEM X PILLS & LOST CONTROL OF HIS CAR & IT WRAPPED ALL THE WAY AROUND THE POLE ON THE BRIDGE THAT USED TO TAKE US FROM THE PARKING LOT TO ASTROWORLD!
yeah before pac. but before Mello it was Zapp's actual music mixed with a sample of 'ooh oo child' in the chorus. go watch Zapp and you'll get a real good look at how creativity works. Go listen to Zapp's Computer Love and you'll have a melt down thinking that we've only gone backward since then. That's technically speaking though and art isn't about technical things so much as How You Do It.
Show me any new hollywood movie or rap and Ill take the bs talk away by showing you who they copied.

Fat Pat was shot
DJ Screw--it's not known for sure, but he worked himself to exhaustion and drank and drugs might have had an affect
HAWK was murdered in a drive-by
