Spider Loc Mixtape Cover

[SGV]

All the crip this crip that crip crip crip shit is pathetic to me. Since when is cripping a selling point?

Ask the Nationwide Rip Ridaz, ask the Dogg Pound Gangsta Crips, etc. It's been like this since the 90s... You're just catching on now?

I feel bad for whoever gives this attention or even a listen

As you say Game got his point across with his Vol. 3 cover, I feel Spi got his point across with this cover. Why? Because it depicts Game to, one, be as lame as being on dating show, and two, getting turned down on a dating show. It's the ulitmate truth. No fiction involved. Where as Game holding 50 Cent's head couldn't be anymore than a fantasy. Ghost Unit was funny, there's no doubt about that. But, again, it was a complete fantasy. Game being on Change of Heart, as "played out" as it maybe is still hilarious to me and many others. Putting it on a Mixtape makes it just that much funnier.

Don't get me wrong, I laughed at the "Change of Heart" pic/story - even the biggest Game fans couldn't deny that one. I do believe it is a bit played out though, and don't really see how putting it on a mixtape cover makes it funnier. Other than that, I agree with your post.

At the end of the day, I would think that Spider would rather see all this attention focused on his music as opposed to the mixtape's cover!

What I'm saying is this... If there was a 50 picture out there that he wasn't too proud of, and Game put that on his Mixtape cover, most of you guys would be all up Game's nuts about it. But, since it's Game getting humiliated, it's not funny. People need seperate themselves from these beefs. It's not your own, you're just watching/listening. Game doesn't care about you... Remember that.

I dont know Game personally, but I dont like how 50cent get down. I dont know if he really snitched on niggas, but he got a BIG ASS MOUTH and the niggas is very so-so on the mic. I dont like how GAME was handling all of this niggas beefs for about a year and NOBODY ELSE IN GUNIT had the balls to stand up and battle Yuk, Budden, Ja Rule, Regime, etc.. Game made enemies trying to battle for 50 then when 50 wanted more beefs with more niggas (Nas, Fat Joe, Lox,etc..)Game got tiered of that shit and said fuk dat. 50 put Game out on frontstreet battling everybody while 50 didnt even defend himself. Then the nigga aired Game out over the Radio instead of DISMISSING HIM IN PERSON LIKE A REAL NIGGA WOULD DO HE SNAKED HIM, PUT HIM ON BLAST TO OTHERS WITHOUT SAYING SHIT TO HIS FACE FIRST. Niggas in the street dont handle shit like that. That made me NOT LIKE 50. Game may not be the best rapper in the world, but if a nigga did that shit to me I would've reacted the same way.. NIGGA U TRY TO FUCK MY CARRER UP YOU GOING DOWN WITH ME. I respect that shit.

All the crip this crip that crip crip crip shit is pathetic to me. Since when is cripping a selling point?

Almost since the beginning, more specifically when "Bangin On Wax" dropped back in '93.  Gangbanging has always been a part of West Coast rap...if you think it's so pathetic, why the fuck you listening to the West in the first place?

Back in the day you had dudes coming out that were gang related. NWA, Quik, Eiht, Snoop etc... but they weren't blatently yell crip, blood, and they certainly weren't calling out sets.  Then, dudes want to prove they are still street and what not because all these guys are NOT living the street life anymore, so they step it up and start yelling crip and blood. Now, that's not good enough and to prove their street cred dudes are yelling out real sets. Being gang related (when you do gangster rap) is a selling point, cuz that's realness, but to holler out sets and to diss other's sets is just setting the stage for useless rap related street violence. I don't know, anyone feel me on this?

No, I really don't feel ya, because what you've said isn't the truth.  First of all, there was no "Crip/Blood" phase and then a mention of sets..."Bangin On Wax" was all about those cats calling out their hoods and shit.  With other rappers, it was usually pretty easy to tell which card they were from - their names, for example (Tone Loc - obviously Crip) or the way they talked (Snoop frequently saying "cuzz" and "loc" in his lyrics).

And I don't see how shouting out sets by itself causes violence...ANY beef carries that risk.  When MC Eiht and DJ Quik were feuding, the Tragniew Park Crips and Tree Top Pirus automatically got to dumpin on each other, and there wasn't no repping sets on their diss tracks.  In comparison, you've got Tha Eastsidaz calling out their sets regularly, and that was a peace thang (at first, anyway).

Generally speaking, the worst thing that repping your set on wax can do is limit your paper, case the cats from the rival gangs don't wanna buy your album.  So for underground niggas trying to make a come up, it's probably not a wise move.  In the mainstream, tho, you can do whatever the fuck you wanna do - you talk about Crippin on wax, and like you said, it's a selling point - the white kids think it sounds more authentic or what have you.
