I know not too many people play hip-hop or rap at funerals but I was wondering what song would you have played at your funeral if you could choose:
Here is my short list:
2Pac - Is There Heaven For a G
2Pac - I Ain't Mad at Cha
Dre - The Message
Ice Cube - Dead Homies
Thats all I got for now.
-
Thug LIfe- How Long Will They Mourn ME?
Master P- I Miss My Homies and Goodbye To My Homies
2Pac- Life Goes On
Bone- Da CrossRoads
DRS- Gangsta Lean
Those songs, I think, are the best songs dedicated to the dearly departed. I'd want them at my funeral because it would capture the time of mourning, but also make my family and friends realize they got to move on woth their lives, but never forget me.
-
i dont think id have any hip hop songs at my funeral...
cos all the fitting songs...that are about death n shit...are already dedications too someone else...so i wouldnt wanna blast out nobody elses tribute....
plus...id prolly want some party shit playin...cos my fam gets down like that (no matter what the occasion!)
-
I'd have some of Snoop's party shit, plus 'Pac's "Until The End Of Time".
Maybe "Lil Ghetto Boy" by Dre or "Goodbye" by, uh, me...
Owen "The Sheriff" Edwards
The White Dude
-
Y'all gonna miss me by Snoop
-
Ima have loadsa Pharcyde, some real ahppy shit then at the end "How long will they mourn me"
-
I'd have Let Me Ride pumpin outta the herse.
-
Bitches ain't shit
Just don't bite it
Groupie
Fuck a bitch
LOL
-
Life Goes On- Tupac
I love that song.
-
i don't know i don't think i'd want music at my funeral, but if i had to i'd get some bagpipe dudes do "amazing grace" cuz i want every one to be ballin' over me when i die and that's the biggest tear jurkingest song i can think of
-
Yo that reminds me of my grandma's funeral. I didn't shed a tear until they started playing "Amazing Grace" and the casket went down. Then I started acting a fool. Now that I think about it it was funny hoe stupid I was acting.
-
"pop that pussy" 2 Live Crew
naw but 4 real i good funeral song is "Canon" by Pachabel if u ever peep this song make sure its in D Major. real tear jerkin shit
-
"fuck all y'all" 2pac "
fuck the world" 2pac
-
The Only One I Can Think Of Right Now, Is "Sleepwalk"... Yall Ever Heard That, It's An Instrumental From The 50's... They Played It In That Movie About Ritchie Valens Dying, "La Bamba"... Greatest Instrumental Ever.
There's Probably A Few More, But I Can't Think Of Any Hip Hop Ones, Although The Let Me Ride In The Herse Is The Funniest Thing I've Ever Seen, That'd Be So Gangsta It's Hilarious.. LOL.
-
TRUAMA SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!!!!!!!
I WAS GOING TO SAY THAT TOO!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DOGG, THATS MY DEATH SONG, IF YOU USE THAT SONG AT UR FUNERAL I WILL KILL YOU (?????) ......... I HAVE THE MOVIE LA BAMBA, RICHIE IS MY DOGG, I WATCHED THAT MOVIE EVERY DIZZAY .. THAT SONG IS SO SAD ... IT MAKES ME CRY ... GOD DAMN THAT IS MY SONG ... HOW WE THINK
If I were going to play a hip hop song ...
Probably
"Missing You" by Puff
-bpg
-
I might play Among Kings by Nas....nah it talks about hell and shit.
-
IF YOU USE THAT SONG AT UR FUNERAL I WILL KILL YOU
LOL..Sorry but that just made me laugh..LOL
-
LMAO. I would also play:
Nigga of the Century - Ice Cube ;)
Real Niggaz don't Die - NWA (hey I'm not full black)
Sorry I'm Away So Much - Xzibit (Imma be away for a long ass time right?)
-
yeah that santo & johnny joint sleepwalk is the shit. to me its more like a love song.
yall got the long version ???
i got 2 diffrent versions of it
the long version has a loud drum snare to it
its mind blowin !
-
Imagine how our folks would react when they realize it's in our will to play some profane hip-hop shit at our funerals? LOL I'd put how long will they mourn me, the message,hoodtraps,yall gonna miss me, and end it on a laid back happy note, it was a good day,peace-Tanjint
-
Hey, That Santo And Johnny Is Tight, I Don't Have Both Versions. BUT,
Look On Napster, Or Somewhere, For The Brian Setzer Orchestra Version Of "Sleepwalk", Yall Know Brian Setzer? He Was The Lead Guitarist Of The Stray Cats, They Do Big Band Swing Stuff... They Had "Rock This Town", And The Orchestra Had "Jump, Jive & Wail" 2 Years Ago... Anyways, On That Cd (The Dirty Boogie), They Do Sleepwalk. He's One Of The Best Guitar Players Around And If You Appreciate Guitar, Download His Version Of Sleepwalk, It's Amazing. It Sounds Like A Guitar Is Singing.
BTW, A Story My Dad Used To Tell Me Is His Uncle Died, And Was Always A Practical Joker... Well, Our Family's White, And He Had A 20 Person BLACK Choir Sing Some R&B Song (Like A Really Cool Wild One) At His Funeral, And The Family Was Like "Who Picked That Song? That Was Crazy", And Come To Find Out, He Left It In His WILL That He Wanted That Song Played, As A Practical Joke!
My Dad Didn't Leave A Will, So We Didn't Play Anything Specific, Just General Music. The Pastor Wanted To Know What I Wanted Him To Say, So I Just Told Him To Emphasize That He Loved Everybody And We All Loved Him Very Much, And That He Loved Music And Telling Stories. Whenever He Did It, He Mentioned That He Loved The Temptations, The Drifters, And The Platters... I Was So Fucked Up I Couldn't Even Breath Right, And Was Shaking And Shit, So If They Would Have Played A Song, I Probably Would Have Had My Own Heart Attack...
So Watch What You Want Played, Because I Don't Think I Could Have Handled Them Playing One Of His Favorite Songs.

Tupac - Krazy

In that case, Trauma...Ren N Stimpy "Happy Happy Joy Joy"....
