    It worked for me...

    Seems like a lot has changed since this came out. The violence in lyrics went down significantly. The main cats now are Ye, Drake, Wiz, Cudi, Wale, BOB, and them. The hardest cats out in terms of violent lyrics are Ross and Wayne, and theyre not as hard as the cats in the 90s/early 00s. A cypher sounds a lot different now from then. It's mainly about gettin money girls rather than shootin people and sellin drugs

    Cool video. Busta and Clipse made themselves look like idiots, at least Jada was willing to address the filmmakers points. Also Clipse looked like they were on something.

    which is interesting cause i remember watching this documentary around 4 years ago and even with dudes like kanye out i was like damn when this gunplay gunna end. And notice how bad new york has suffered since nobody been checking for gunplay. I love gunplay lyrics in moderation but thats all nyc was eating off of. Even here in CT on state up dudes trina be a lamer version of a lame new york rapper lol.
