I couldn’t “afford” to give the album a chance back then since you pretty much had to buy albums so I wasn’t gonna take a chance on it off the strength of one song plus I was a hip hop head for the most part…crazy that it never occurred to me to go back and check it out after all these years tho

All of the songs being posted in this thread is what made hip-hop so great back in the day....... balance.

There was your gangster rap and then you had songs like this.

It's a fun , self-depreciating , humorous song.

This song was dropped when rappers could be themselves and rap music in general could be "fun"

Depressing song considering it's backed up by an upbeat west coast production

I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat in a 64 Impala
