Post by: JG on April 29, 2003, 03:17:44 AM
What is Gangsta Rap now? is it still existing? is not no longer about Guns, Drugs & Drive-by music? Is it about a beef with others?

no. gangsta rap ain't dead...its still here...it will never die out...the only way for gangsta rap to die out is only if the violence stops in da streets...but that will never happen.

i think gangsta rap is now just a parody of itself. It used to be about a reality, albeit sometimes an exaggerated one. now its just a joke, everytime you hear a song thats about switches bitches riches, or im a baller shot caller its just corny.

its not dead yet, but reality rap needs a drastic shot in the arm
