But to his discredit, his sampling sucks. He's using shit that 2pac used in 96: Drive Slow's (Track 6) sample is from a famous track from All Eyez On Me-Shorty Wanna Be a Thug.

"it doesn't have the hook that most of the other tracks do."
this is the hook for me:
How we stop the black panthers?
Ronald Reagan cooked up an answer
You hear that?
What Gil Scott was hearin
When our heroes and heroines got hooked on heroin.
Crack raised the murder rate in DC and Maryland
We invested in that it's like we got Merril-Lynch
And we been hangin from the same tree ever since
Sometimes I feel the music is the only medicine
So we cook it, cut it, measure it, bag it,sell it
the fiends cop it
nowadays they cant tell if that's that good shit
we ain't sure man
put the CD on your toungue yeah, thats pure man.But hey different strokes for different folks.

yeah palindrome, i hear ya'.
i guess the lyrics are secondary to me (especially on an album i've only listened to half a dozen times) my first instinct is to recognize the beats, whether reconstituted or not.
neither here nor there though. good disc in both regards.

Does anyone here listen to Nickatina?
*looks around the room
- rockonski0
nickatina? never heard him.
*fires up the seek

Since we were on the subject of crack music, Andre Nickatina came to my mind. He is one of the most vivid underground rappers to come out of SF (Fillmoe Holla!). Crack lyrics, good samples, straight west coast sound; with the 808s and shit.
