    I don't even know what you're arguing any more. If she doesn't want him, then she's a strong woman, but if she sleeps with him, then she's a bitch and a ho and a tramp? Nothing in "Wonder Why They Call U Bitch" had anything to do with one experience.

    I simply responded to your post about "uptown girl" ...

    The overall point I make, which you disagree with, is that he treats all women as pussy to be conquered, and nothing more.

    Nope. He said "We ain't ready to see a black president." And we weren't ready in 1992 when he recorded it, nor in 1998 when it was released.

    Oh, and Verse, he died 1996, not 2006. Allegedly anyway. He was wearing the new Jordans in that one video after all. ;)

    My first thought when I saw the thread title was "didn't someone beat us to this one?"

    By and large, perhaps, but there are 4 strong songs:

    Shorty Wanna Be A Thug
    Wonder Why They Call U Bitch
    Ratha Be Your Nigga
    All Eyez on Me

    A major core audience for so-called "gangsta rap," the audience that pushed its popularity into the stratosphere, has long been Midwest white kids. They have no clue about anything that is being said, but they lap up every word.

    Of course, the main audience for metal has always been skinny - often ugly - suburban kids who are angry even though they have little to really be angry about.

    I can't figure out why he let so many potentially great tracks be ruined by the Outlawz. Did no one bother telling him they were all awful? They ruined what could have been tremendous tracks in "Hail Mary" and "Me Against the World," most egregiously.
