A meaningless death made me question the meaning of life. Does my body remain at rest like when I'm sleeping at night? Will I burn in eternal hell or will I find paradise. Be rejected or resurrected like the body of Christ..
That's some fucking powerful lyrics. I think Poetic is the most inspirational and well-minded rapper that ever lived.
oh my god...man...wut a song..i cried...RIP Poetic I will pray for your soul..Its strange how gravediggaz rap in the graveyard....they live their...and finally it becomes their final resting place....or I hope..
If you can make it thru this song without tears welling-up in your eyes, then there's something wrong with you. It took REAL courage to take-on and taunt Cancer the way that Too Poetic did.....I pray that somebody finds a cure for cancer.....soon
I cant even hear grym's verse without tearz in my eyez.. He was and alwayz will b tha realist m.c. , tha realiest man, knowledge from da godz son R.I.P 2 THE FALLEN WARRIORS OF HIP HOP!!!!!!!!
@20MOJO20 Well underground to me is real hip-hop, not commercial, and to me Hip-hop isn't going so bad like many people think. Listen to Jedi Mind Tricks, Sean Price, Virtuoso, Freestyle (arsonists) etc and you'll see :).
Great track from Last Emperor and his mates by the way :).
Poetic, True MC, True Man, He's Music speak's to me somehow...I know he's in heaven..Just listen to the lyrics, Poetic Keeps it real. and he still does, even if he is dead, he's music still live's... Rest With the angels Poetic, There will never, NEVER be a greater mc/man then you!
we almost lost all the biggest skilled out mc's & beatmakers that made a big part of the hip hop scene. the 2 most respected by myself are the grim reap (fatter than girls with big butts ) & dilla (tha biggest of them all). its sad but what you gonna do?
This song still sends shivers down my spine every single time I hear it. I don't know if in the same position I could find the strength to speak on my situation so vividly and openly. Poetic was more than a real artist, he was a real man. R.I.P.
Probably one of the saddest songs in music , let alone hip hop. it takes extreme Heart to write a song about your death , when you jsut know it will happen. one of the deepest,realest,saddest songs. it seemed poetry in hip hop died along with him . R.i.P Grym, Too Poetic
fucking netbanger you're probably middle class fronting like you been where hard motherfuckers have been you're bout as hard as a pillow bitch as nigga you probably whiteboy too.
i really dont know much about gravediggaz, how many cds did they have, and were they popular, cause some of there songs are almost better than wu, i mean no i take that back it depends on my mood, but they are so unbelievably good hah but yeah i downloaded sickle,shovel,pick cd and the first cd w/ constant elevation what other cds did they have
Ah, let me try this again. Too poetic, one, of my fav's, I sure hope this opinion doesn't upset anyone. Last Emperor is great too. That's actually why I'm here watching this video. Great song.
never really thought about that until recently but yeah, I think you right or at the very least he had the potential to be that recognized... I think he went before his time man, well what I mean is I think he wasn't really even in his prime yet...these past 10 years probably woulda had some ill ass hip hop moments if dude was still around thats for sure... Always loved his eclectic style and how he varied the pitch and tone of his voice when he rapped..
for all you that dont know too poetic is rappin about what is gonna happen to him u see he was diagnosed with cancer or sum liver disease i believe and the gave him 3 months to live shit this song is true hip hop r.i.p too poetic from gravediggas
i know that shit tripped me out he was a very dope mc his style was very wicked listen to the grave digga's 2nd album the song called fairy tales he ripped it rip tp
Everytime i question death my only answer is life. Fb status this shit lol
