We already had a solo from Rage on Death Row and that shit was in 97' and yet it came out weak. How would it be possible that now in 2024 all these years later she would do something special?I was at the record stores the day Rage dropped summer of 97'. I also bought the Nothing to Lose soundtrack. Nothing to Lose had Daz and Soopafly banger on it, and it also had a Master P joint on there and it was right when Master P was really starting to emerge with the "I'm Bout It" movie--everyone remembers that soundtrack especially for "C U When You Get There" a lovely song by the late Coolio RIP.but ultimately a dissapointing day at the record store. Nothing To Lose wasn't a great summer soundtrack like the previous summer I was listening to classix like the Show and even Sunset Park and still bumping Murder was the Case regularly in my rotation. Imagine, summer of 96' I had the Dre Source Cover on my dresser, guess what was on my dresser summer of 97?? It was Rolling Stone magazine "THE NEW KING OF HIP-HOP" with Puffy on the Cover --summer of 97' was like the most depressing summer of my fuccing life, and I'm holding Rage partly responsible. -----------------------------------------------(RANT CONTINUED)...It was like how did my life fall so hard that I went from "Afro Puffs" anthem summer of 94' my homies and I smoking on rooftops and shit and hitting homeruns and all the girls cheering for me in Little League to Summer of 97' I'm a freshman in highschool and these muthefuckaz are literally throwing CHANGEUPS!! On any good pitcher I used to have this trick I'd been using since age 9--I used to always cheat by taking a lead step right as the pitcher was releasing the ball so I was already out in front of the fastest pitchers in little league. We had guys on the team better than me going 0-4 against these guys and I would be sitting at like 2-4 against the top guys. Just from one simple little cheat of taking an early lead step into the pitch. Well...summer of 97' I was 15 and that was the end of my great dayz of summers. Why? Because now I'm in highschool so you are a dork if you ride a bicycle. My summers used to be spent riding my bike all around the city hanging out with homiez and meeting up with girls well now if you don't have a car no girls are gonna talk to you and if you ride a bike then everyone laughs at you--and no girls cheering for me on the baseball fields anymore because NOW WHEN YOU TAKE A LEAD STEP THE PITCHERS ARE SO GOOD THEY KNOW HOW TO THROW MUTHAFUCKIN CHANGEUPS!!!! And anyone that knows baseball knows that if you get caught out in front of a pitch you end up out in front and send a weak pop up right to the center of the infield for an easy out. BASEBALL CAREER OVER AND SUMMERS OVER because now pitchers can pitch changeups, LADY OF RAGE'S ALBUM IS TRASH, 2pac is dead, Dre is in hibernation, PUFFY is on the Cover of Rolling Stones as THE NEW KING OF HIP-HOP, and my childhood is over. THANK YOU LADY OF RAGE FOR RUINING MY LIFE. It's been all downhill ever since for me.
his production fits her style to a tI do like her over G-Funk beats as well...she can spit over anything...she's that good
She can spit over anything agreed. I cant wait to see her live next week. I like how she went super fast on the Primo beat… instead of pausing to breath she raps faster… Dpg demi goddess!
Which show you going to?
I would like to nominate this for post of the year
Is Is this some kind of performance art?I was bummed about Tupac and the lack of new Dre material and whatever else in '97, and I am maybe a few years younger than this poster, but woah. This can't be for real.
Super cool seeing her, DPG, Teinz. Rage shredded the GFunk Intro and Afro Puffs. Dopest female emcee by a mile
The mixtape (VA 2 LA) she put out in 2005 was dope
