Ok, so when it comes to being a true gangsta rapper, who is for real legit?

Lost Boyz seem to be real ballers.
Biggie was for real.

Who else?
 
The only rap i'll listen to

I'd say they are all pretty much smoke and mirrors. YMMV :)

"On the night of March 28, 1999, at a birthday party for Mr. Cheeks, Freaky Tah was shot in the head while exiting the Sheraton Hotel in Queens. Tah was taken to Jamaica Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 4:20 am,"

"On January 16, 2004, DJ Spigg Nice was tried and convicted of multiple bank robberies in New Jersey and was sentenced to 37 years in prison."

Ain't no smoke a mirrors playa. I wanna listen to true ballas bustin' rhymes, not Puff Daddy wannabees.
 
So you'd rather listen to less-talented rappers who happen to be criminals rather than talented rappers who aren't?

Man, ain't that just the way of things nowadays. The image is more important than the music.
 

THE LAST MR. BIGG - MR. DIAMOND EYE - TRIAL TIME - MOBILE, ALABAMA

Having just taken two pistol rounds to the head at point-blank range, The Last Mr. Bigg was sure he was going to die. Nevertheless, as paramedics attempted to cut off his red mink coat, he pleaded with them not to ruin the jacket. He didn't realize that it was already soaked through with his own blood. The 2004 attack may sound like something out of one of his songs. Bigg, born Donald Pears Jr., is one of the biggest rap stars to come out of Mobile. He spent eight days in a coma. He lost his right eye, part of his brain and nearly his life. The eye was later replaced with a prosthetic, centered with a diamond iris.

real talk fam back in high school my homie drove a chevrolet suburban pulling into student parking lot bumpin Mr. Bigg - Trial Time now that shit was gangsta lol


couple cali gangsta niggaz
In what looks to be the first case of an artist being jailed for making a record, California rapper C-BO was arrested Tuesday night on charges that his lyrics violate the terms of his parole. As we first reported last month (see "Rapper's Lyrics May Violate Parole"), those conditions dictated that he "not engage in any behavior which promotes the gang lifestyle, criminal behavior, and/or violence towards law enforcement." Spokespeople at the California Department of Corrections contend that the rapper's lyrics manage to violate all of those conditions, which they say the rapper agreed to upon his release from prison last summer after a weapons conviction. Authorities say that C-BO's lyrics threaten specific political leaders as well as the police in general, like on the track "Deadly Game" on which C-BO raps, "You better swing, batter, batter swing/'Cause once you get your third felony,/Yeah, 50 years you gotta bring/It's a deadly game of baseball/So when they try to pull you over/shoot 'em in the face, ya'll."

C-BO - Deadly Game

and Brotha Lynch Hung - Locc 2 Da Brain

oh yea and C-Murder, master p's bro. he got 10 years for this shooting and is doing life for another murder, go figure. a damn shame dude went platinum, and his bro worth like half a billion $ and he shooting clubs up in the hood. fuck wrong wit that fool. he made some dope songs too like makin moves / Down 4 My N's

Soulja Slim R.I.P probably the most "ganster" of them all n B.G deserves a mention.

Also Master P s brother C - Murder as the above poster mentioned.

No I rather listen to talented rappers who speak from experience, instead of punks readin' lyrics tryin' to act tough.
 
Z-Ro, Spice-1, Brotha Lynch Hung, Compton's Most Wanted (MC Eiht), Geto Boys, Eazy-E, UGK and finally, Bloods & Crips (the group). Lots of the stuff comin from Houston and other parts of Texas is real. Geto Boys were ghetto disciples, Brotha Lynch Hung, MC Eiht, Eazy-E, Snoop, & Ice T are crips.

If you've never heard Bloods & Crips, they're really real. Just members of the gangs rapping together. Half the members are dead or in prison.

Not that their music is good.

Memphis Bleek is a solo artist..and Jay-Z's best friend..so he doesnt have to do anything..and I'd bet he's not that gangsta..doesnt need to be.
