The Geto Boys Discussion Thread
This was one of my favorite rap groups back in the days. I just saw that Willie D was recently sentenced to a year in prison for wire fraud. Also, sometime in the past year or two Bushwick Bill has become a Christian rapper.

Very underrated when it comes to getting props but definitely trendsetters along with Public Enemy(conscious, political), NWA(Gangsta), DeLa/A Tribe Called Quest(hippy, jazz infusion).

"Six feet deep" was probably the greatest "Dead Homies" song of the 90's (And there was a lot of them) |

I was pissed off when I bought the self-titled album. "Gangster of love" wasn't the Steve Miller version! :mad:

Re: The Geto Boys Discussion Thread
Notable that they were so shocking with their lyrics, that Rick Rubin put a disclaimer on the self-titled album saying he, nor the company endorsed the lyrical content.

Re: The Geto Boys Discussion Thread
Everything from Grip It to The Resurrection is amazing.
Their last album sounds like three old men rapping while sitting on rocking chairs on their front porches. "Six feet deep" was probably the greatest "Dead Homies" song of the 90's (And there was a lot of them) |

RIP Bushwick Bill
I remember I got a autographed photo in the mail and it looked like he signed it and it was not a copy. A publicist for rapper Bushwick Bill says the founder of the iconic Houston rap group the Geto Boys has died. Bill's publicist, Dawn P., told The Associated Press that the rapper died Sunday at 9:35 p.m., local time, at a Colorado hospital. The publicist says the rapper, whose legal name is Richard Shaw, was surrounded by family when he died. inRead invented by Teads His Dallas-based business manager, Pete Marrero, said the 52-year-old was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer in February. He had been planning to go on tour around the time he was hospitalized. |

RIP Bushwick! Tough to see those we grew up listening pass away far too soon.
