DRUG-induced RAP

[Originally posted September 24, 2007]

I recently ran across a bunch of new music and realized what seems to be a new trend in the game: "Drug-Induced Rap".

Now back when I first heard "Laffy Taffy", I thought D4L (or at least Fabo) was zooted on something. On second thought, Laffy Taffy isnt really a "drug-induced song". ("Laffy taffy" frankly refers pu**y lips.) But after hearing more of Fabo's music, and noticing how this dude is yelling his ass off in some songs-I'm convinced. (Fabo is the only ni**a I know that has yelled "Barbra" in a song. Unless Barbra is short for barbiturates, Im still confused by this).

Another song I recently ran across was Lil' Wayne's "I Feel Like Dying". It is a dope ass song but the entire time you're listening youre asking yourself: "What the fuck is this dude on?" Also, take a listen to "Leather So Soft"; what exactly would make you write a song about how soft your leather is? You probably would have never noticed the softness of your leather unless you were on Ecstasy. Now, I don't do drugs, and never have experimented with the shit (out of fear of what my alter-ego might do). So when I hear one of my favorite rappers, Pimp C, talking about 'snawtin' the white girl up off some beeshes titties', I cant personally relate, but yet I understand and continue to ride for the Pimp.

As we all know, the drug culture and the music culture go hand-in-hand...but dayum! I mean, check it out: back in the 80's and early 90's, NWA came out with the song 'Express Yourself' where Dr. Dre stated that he didn't do drugs. Then came '94' or '95 and Dr. Dre comes out with one of the dopest rap albums of all times-The Chronic.

Now before I feel a backlash from the streets, I want to say: no, I do not think Dr. Dre is a "real street cat". But yet, I understand what I'm writing. Now everybody is talking about poppin pills, snawtin something, sippin the syrup or smoking good. I wonder what's next. Recently the lead singer of the group Hi-Five lost his life to huffing f**king freon!? FREON!? Next motherf**kers gonna be poppin' 'shrooms and licking frog backs. I'm predicting the shit right here and now. Ni**as will be getting pulled over for trafficking frogs from state to state. Ni**as will be running up on you talking about: "Yo homie, I got them frogs for the low low." Cant you hear Young Jeezy rapping bout how he 'got them frogs jumpin' and Fabo coming up with some new slang for frog licking...how does "gettin' kermit" sound?

Then again, I'm no prophet. I'm just a dude that aint never did a drug in my life; wondering what's going on.

Raw and Uncut Hip-Hop


"Hip-Hop on sum NEXT SHI!T"
From the intro track of this mixtape, it is apparent Algierz Brand Clothing & Music and DJ Ferno Boudreaux are out to make a statement.
The clothing company, well-known for keeping Texas and much of the U.S. draped up and dripped out with its unique t-shirts, recruited K.O.D./Hood Hard Hitmakers veteran DJ Ferno Boudreaux to host a block banger worthy of heavy rotation this fall.
Jewels like The Recipe feat. E-40+Gucci Mane+Bun B along with Baby Powder feat. Boo Rossini+Young Jeezy and the soon-to-be classic Freedom feat. Chalie Boy are brilliantly placed on the 70+ minute compilation. Rounded out with glimpses of DJ Ferno Boudreaux's lyrical skills, a hilarious ode to mary jane, and a few shameless plugs by Algierz Brand Clothing & Music, this mixtape production gets their message across clearly. As promised, RUHH is on another level. The hard-hitting, well-produced mixtape helps both Algierz and host DJ Ferno Boudreaux distinguish themselves as forces to be reckoned amongst their competition.

"I want my ol' Triple 6 Mafia..."

Congregation….

What the fuck has happened to Triple Six Mafia? I know they changed they’re name and all to 3-6 but, deep down to me, they will always be Triple Six Mafia. These last two albums they put out have been BOO-BOO! I cant tell you how much Lolli Lolli makes my stomach do a nose dive. To hear one of my favorite groups growning into more Pop, bubble gum shit than Flo-Rida (No shots).

Man...just speaking from a true fan point of view, I miss those old 3-6 hits, like “Tear the Club Up”, “Beat Them Hoes Down”, the entire DJ Paul Underground Volume 16 Mixtape, all of Chapter 2 and When the Smoke Clears was a fucking classic! I sweatagawd, I’d take it to anybody who got something different to say.

Most of the decline can be accounted to members leaving after each album. When Gangsta Boo left and Crunchy Black was moved to the background my interest decreased. Crunchy Black always had the hardest verses to me.

It seriously bothers me that OG-like cats aint really producing like they used to. Pimp C is dead. 8Ball and MJG cant decide on a fucking label (FUCK SEAN PUFFY COMBS FOR THAT SHIT!). And who knows when Outkast is gonna bless us again? The only hope I had in a group to provide me with something dope was 3-6 and now they giving me lame bullshit like….

What the fuck is this shit?! Give me less of that and more of this…

“Suck-a-nigga-dick-or-something”

A letter from a true fan….
