Hittman is not a real person. He was a computer program generated by Dr. Dre and Mel Man back in the mid 90's. When Dre started treating Mel-Man like shit, Mel infiltrated the computer and put a virus in the hittman program

"Fantastic Voyage" was the first single off his first album "It Takes A Thief". Classic track, classic album. Coolio was a member of the groupThe Madd Circle back then so WC & The Madd Circle were all over that album. If you've never heard the track "Ghetto Cartoon" make sure u take a listen! Very nice track talking about what would happen if characters such as Bugs Bunney, Daffy Duck, Kermit The Frog, etc lived in the ghetto.....I still bump a Coolio cd every now and then....

I could have sworn "County Line" was the first single. He had a video for it and released the single for sale.
Being a LAKER is a privilige. Unfortunately some "Lakers" have forgotten that.

I saw him on a program over here in england called 'Graham Norton' or something, i was flicking thru the channels and saw coolio, was like wtf.. kept it on and he asked him to freestyle, so coolio sat there and tried, but fucked up big time, i was embarrased for him and switched off.   That was about 7 months ago.
