"Fantastic Voyage" was a better song and video but "Gangsta's Paradise" is also another Coolio classic. I wish Coolio didn't go so "pop". Shoulda kept it gangsta like on It Takes A Thief and his Maad Circle material. His voice and flow were extremely nice.

Str8 Up! Dude was extra nice with "the maad cicle" he rap'd his ass off and flowed like water...

Damn he was down with WC and the maad circle? never knew that!

This track still gets play on the radio today, an all time rap classic
