Yo, you! Where is the Gangsta Rap?

I know some of you are blue in the face. What from? Waiting for my rap post of course. What you have to understand is that these days street cred does not mean what it used to in the booth. Kids want to hear music they can wiggle their hands too and maybe, if they are lucky, dance with a girl in the dark cave named dance club.
I like to get down and shake, shake my abs around but I miss the glory days. The ones full of beats punctuated by gunshots and spent shells striking the ground. Those beats got me amped! They made me want to drop my seat back real low and drive slow through parking lots. Or play basketball, shoot dice in an alley or play Mike Tyson's punchout. Those were anthems to picked on youth that wanted to do something other than pout about it. Or feel like you shared in the rappers street cred because you listened to his tunes. Fifty Cent had nine bullet wounds and man, I felt like I had at least one after listening to Get Rich Or Die Trying. That CD was raw man.
Rappers these days have lost it. The new school is about tight jeans, dancing, grinding and saying certain phrases repeatedly like Yeah or OMG. Since I know you are sick of that sissy techno inspired fluff on the radio I have put together a little list of songs that will make you feel bad to the bone.
EDIT: These songs have bad language. Kiddies, don't let your mom know.

Mobb Deep: Get Away


Ghostface Killah: Walk Around


Fifty Cent: Wanksta


Young Jeezy: By The Way


All of these songs are guaranteed to get your amp game up. Blast a few of these before you get your hoop on and dunk on your friends! I usually listen to these before job interviews and guess how many jobs I have gotten? Zero. I am too intimidating when I speak to those cats they usually do not let me in. I am waiting for this to make a come back. The streets are still tough for kids and since my contact with the streets consists of gansta rap on the radio, I am missing out on something.
