    Easy for me. The title of the thread is; Goat Storytelling TRACK

    The use of the word "track" means the beat is included in the discussion.

    The beat to Regulate is dope while the beat to Brendas Got A Baby is kinda weak.

    This ? shoulda been the finals to tell you the truth

    It hurts me to vote against Warren G's classic but thinking about how ahead of its time BGAB was and how vivid the story is from a story telling prospective....I have to give the match to Pac for if nothing else what his joint meant consciously to a social issue that still plagues the ghettos across america (come on. Most of us know a Brenda) where as I dont feel like alotta people can relate to getting jux getting caught slippin in the wrong part of town. I mean i can relate cuz I ve always had a balance of streetlife in me and been though some ? but i think Brenda got a baby touches more of main stream america. You had child ? issues, abortion issues, and a sad ending evolking more emotions so from a food for thoughts perspective...brenda got a baby is the much deeper song.

    @ the bolded. Brenda's Got A Baby might be the more "deeper song". But how often do you listen to it? Seriously does anybody on the IC drive around bumping Brenda's Got A Baby?

    I can picture myself driving around LA bumping Regulate, but I can't think of any scenario where I'd be driving around with the top down bumping Brenda's Got A Baby.

    you always gotta be driving around "bumping" music?.....it's rainy and cold here, I don't think I'm bumping anything on a day like this and sometimes just driving on the highway home from work and a song like Brenda's got a baby would feel good to listen to

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRWUs0KtB-I


    I hear Brenda's got a baby
    But Brenda's barely got a brain
    A damn shame, the girl can hardly spell her name
    That's not our problem, that's up to Brenda's family
    Well let me show you how it affects our whole community
    Now Brenda never really knew her moms
    And her dad was a junkie shooting dope into his arms
    It's sad, cause I bet Brenda doesn't even know
    Just cause you're in the ghetto doesn't mean you can't grow
    But oh, that's a thought, my own revelation
    Do whatever it takes to resist the temptation
    Brenda got herself a boyfriend
    Her boyfriend was her cousin, now let's watch the joy end
    She tried to hide her pregnancy, from her family
    Who really didn't care to see, or give a damn if she
    Went out and had a church of kids
    As long as when the check came they got first dibs
    Now Brenda's belly is getting bigger
    But no one seems to notice any change in her figure
    She's twelve years old and she's having a baby
    In love with a molester, who's sexing her crazy
    And yet and she thinks that he'll be with her forever
    And dreams of a world where the two of them are together, whatever
    He left her and she had the baby solo
    She had it on the bathroom floor and didn't know so
    She didn't know, what to throw away and what to keep
    She wrapped the baby up and threw him in a trash heap
    I guess she thought she'd get away, wouldn't hear the cries
    She didn't realize how much the little baby had her eyes
    Now the baby's in the trash heap bawling
    Momma can't help her, but it hurts to hear her calling
    Brenda wants to run away
    Momma say, you making me lose pay
    The social workers here everyday
    Now Brenda's gotta make her own way
    Can't go to her family, they won't let her stay
    No money no babysitter, she couldn't keep a job
    She tried to sell ? but end up getting robbed
    So now what's next, there ain't nothing left to sell
    So she sees sex as a way of leaving hell
    It's paying the rent, so she really can't complain
    Prostitute, found slain and Brenda's her name, she's got a baby

    Honestly i almost voted Pac but when i voted Regulate was losing by a lot so i wanted to even it up.

    Regulate is the better song

    BGAB is better storytelling track
