Post by: Lord Funk on April 28, 2006, 05:56:44 AM: IMO 'It Takes A Thief' was a great, great album. 'Gangsta's Paradise' had some class tunes on, as did 'My Soul', but nothing as raw as that first CD.

Post by: eazye on April 28, 2006, 07:48:45 AM: Everybodt knows Coolio for "Gangsta's Paradise" but few really appreciate him.I remember 3-4 years ago when he came to my country for a concert and I couldn't go.I still regret it.

And the stuff he did with WC And The Maad Circle is classic to me.

"Ain't A Damn Thang Changed" especially.I love that album.

Props to Coolio.
