Title: Xzibit's missin u
Post by: Glendale on April 27, 2004, 08:37:05 AM
Xzibit's "missin u" was for his mom, Nas's "dance" was for his mom, lil flip's "make mama proud" was for his too...im sure theirs more to add to that list, but is their any songs like them about their dad? cuz my dad died a few years ago and im jus wonderin if theres any rap ones about fathers. post em up if u kno any thanks. or more mom ones. either will do. peace

Papa'z Song - Tupac.
I Miss You - DMX (this one is dedicated to X's deceased grandmother)

LOL, that not really a dedication to his dad.  he is talking about how his dad wasn't there for him, and basically fuck him.

I really can't think of any songs made for rappers dads, but I know a couple more about moms:

the one off warren g's - 3rd album,I want it all.  Its called My Momma, or Ole may sumthing like that.

the one off snoops album no limit top dogg, like the last song on the album.

Warren G - Ola Mae (My Momma)

Ky-Mani - Dear Dad ( not hiphop but give it a listen, it's very emotional and sincere, sure comes from the heart )

And if you're into other music aside from urban, try Sting's "Island of souls"... it's very weird, strange and melancolic. It tells the story of a no-future boy that is living how his father is gonna die and only wishes they both could sail away. Sting wrote that when he lost his father and it's very sad.
