Theme - Depression
Stressed Out Broke Raps
| Side A | ||
| Artist | Song | |
| Luniz | I Got 5 On It | |
| Start with a banger to get the mood just right, plus there's extra points for dropping the depressing shit after an upbeat track about having just a little money to go half on a sack. | ||
| Fatlip | What's Up Fatlip? | |
| I've listened to this song so goddamn many times. | ||
| RA the Rugged Man | Poor People | |
| E-40 | Seasoned | |
| Just about the ultimate broke rap. | ||
| A Tribe Called Quest | Stressed Out | |
| Featuring Faith Evans. Another classic stress jam. | ||
| Geto Boys | My Mind's Playing Tricks on Me | |
| Stress. | ||
| Andre Nickatina | Morrire Da Solo (Die Alone) | |
| I can't always (or just about ever) get down with Nickatina's collaborations with Equipto - Nickatina seems to just let Equipto take the track over while Nickatina just spits out some garbage, but this song is alright. | ||
| Side B | ||
| Artist | Song | Buy |
| The East Flatbush Project | Day in the Life | |
| I don't know if anyone else was waiting for this album as much as I was, but it should have come out in the mid 90s, instead of 2009. Still fucking great. One of the dudes on the album calls himself Stress and his style just fits that perfectly. | ||
| Andre Nickatina | Fears of a Coke Lord | |
| "I can't even have a family, dog" | ||
| The East Flatbush Project | Head to Head 2005 | |
| The Wu-Tang Clan | Can It All Be So Simple | |
| Simply perfect. "Life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough" | ||
| Notorious B.I.G. | Suicidal Thoughts | |
| I really like this track - a lot - except for Puff Daddy babbling his retarded nonsense all over the place. He comes just within a hair's breadth of completely ruining this song. | ||
| Trae | Gittin' High | |
| Trae is the truth. | ||
| Remington Steale | Death Letter - To Be Continued | |
| Possibly the most depressing rap song ever put to tape by a homeless dude from Seattle. Plus he talks about jerking off to track meets! | ||
Comment:
