Comment:

This is a response to my friend Kyle who said that I couldn't make a hip hop mix that didn't have any songs about lewd women, guns, drugs, or self aggrandizing. Here it is, proof that not all hip-hop is thugged out. Almost makes you feel good about yourself. (Millie Pulled a Pistol on Santa is about child abuse, and it doesn't glorify gun use, so it fits with the mix.)

Good point...I guess its the exception that proves the rule...or some junk. I put it in because I wanted to show that hip-hop also addresses larger political issues.
