Day 15: B****es Ain’t S**t

Super­sun­nyspeed­graphic, The LP (2006)

You know a song is good when two of the words are mostly *s and the other one is gram­mat­i­cally incor­rect. This is another cover. The track is orig­i­nally by NWA. So, how do you take a ganstah rap song and make it a piano bal­lad? Very care­fully (and with a LOT of street cred).

On the first lis­ten, if you get past the lan­guage, it almost puts you in gig­gles. On every other lis­ten, it makes you want to pour some out for yo homies. That he per­forms this straight-faced is a tes­ta­ment to how often he’s per­formed it and how much he believes in it.

lis­ten here — DOES con­tain strong language

  1. The sec­ond time I heard this song was at the con­cert. The first was in the car on the way to the con­cert. I said “wow” a lot.
