Black Gangster

"Even rap ain't all it's cracked up to be"

This line exploded in my head one day as I was reciting this verse from the unreleased song "Black Gangster". What I liked most about this song was the beat and just through osmosis I learned the words.

When I thought about it though, and I thought about the fact that Jay-Z left crack sales to try and become a rap star, this line really took shape.

I have switched jobs before only to find that there are common themes that supersede any occupation. Provide a quality product and good customer service.

But even rap ain't all it's CRACKed up to be...

Come on, that's just ridiculous.

  1. If you are amazed by double meanings (double entendres)- check out this line from Regrets: "I sold it all from crack to opium" That 1st line is deeper than most people think!!!

    Analyze it: "I sold it all from crack to 0 PM" > From Crack of dawn to Zero PM... Wrap your brain around it- Good stuff...

  2. He really is the best ever. That's the point of this website. It's for fans obviously, but it's also a direction to point people to when they just don't get him (which I'm convinced is the only reason people might not like him)
