Hood Politics

 

[5StarElite]

Just finished my first listen. This bout to be rotated heavily. Salute to the lil homie. He did it in a major way.

That Negus and Pac part

 

[Dank Hill]

Just finished listening to it. It's a great album but I feel like its a notch under gkmc. I just connect with gkmc more. Still glad I purchased this one too though.

White people so mad

 

[Patrick Kane]

Complexion, brehs

Needs to be a single but never will be allowed on the radio

You peep the transition from Complexion into Blacker the Berry though? shyt was so smooth

Definitely a connection between the messages in both songs.

 

[Lucky Millionaire]

2nd half of Complexion is smooth Dillaesque

Rapsody came correct

 

[Prolific_1011]

damn... initially, I was thinking a solid 3.5. But after multiple spins on a better speaker, this album is GREAT!

Yea it might be the best back to back songs on the album.

Rhapsody always comes correct. Both verses were perfect.

 

[Ohene]

Gotta listen to the album alone without the opinions of clowns in your mind. Im lookin at anyone who says this album is wack like a fukkin cac.

Hood politics
From compton to congress
SET TRIPPIN ALL AROUND

The thing I loved about King Kunta is that it's heavily influenced by Westcoast Rap he grew up on

Mausberg Get Nekkid sample



[Verse 3]
(You goat mouth mammy fukker)
I was gonna kill a couple rappers but they did it to themselves
Everybody's suicidal they don't even need my help
This shyt is elementary, I'll probably go to jail
If I shoot at your identity and bounce to the left
Stuck a flag in my city, everybody's screamin' "Compton"
I should probably run for Mayor when I'm done, to be honest
And I put that on my Mama and my baby boo too
Twenty million walkin' out the court buildin', woo woo!



Snoop-Murda Was the Case

My little homey Baby Boo took a pencil in his neck
And he probably won't make it to see twenty-two
I put that on my Momma; I'ma ride for you Baby Boo



[Hook]
bytch where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game got the whole world talkin', King Kunta


Reference to Kunte Kinte having his right foot cut off but also reminds me of Dr Dre's let me ride last verse

Dr. Dre-Let Me Ride

I remember back in the days when I used to have to get my stroll on
Didn't nobody wanna speak
Now everybody peepin' out they window
When they hear me beatin' up the street
[Snoop:] "Is it Dre? Is it Dre?"
That's what they say

 

[Mowgli]

I like every song. I ripped untitled off youtube and threw that in there.
