One of the most recognizable and iconic hip hop songs ever. One of my favorite songs growing up and still is to this day, gives me chills every time I listen to it.
1995. Nearly three decades later and that message still rings true as ever. The gang lifestyle, as alluring as it may appear to a young, impressionable and frustrated child, is ultimately a never ending cycle of destruction. And yet, people bob their heads and sing along without even grasping the magnitude of the message that’s actually being conveyed.
@@peaceroolz it’s not that kids should be kept away from the “gangster lifestyle,” it’s that it shouldn’t happen to begin with. It’s not just about stopping those that have to live the lifestyle, it’s about recognizing that the ones who are truly responsible for their hurt aren’t the ones they’re fighting against. Solidarity is needed to make real change.
My best friend died in 2007 at the age of 23, 2 days before he turned 24. Gangsta´s paradise was his fav hiphop track growing up in the 90´s as kids. Song never hitted harder since his passing!! RIP G!! #CkC 4-life!! I miss you so much!! ❤😢🙏🏽
take datura if you wanna quit drugs lol that shit is scary af from the stories i heard. “a thousand years in hell” “skulls flying around laughing” it will scare you back into innocence. dont take this comment seriously its sarcasm lol
I think gangsters paradise is a sad song about the importance of seeing the truth and walking away from the life of lies and dark stuff before it’s too late. The whole point is a gangsters paradise is crap. Coolio‘s mind and heart literally couldn’t handle the drugs. Whose can?
L.V and Coolio were the perfect pair to sing this song. This combination really complemented each other voice ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ This song is absolutely heart tugging 😢
Rip coolio he may rest for in peace and live strong I loved his music so much and it hurts to think that he is dead send prayers to him and he may rest in paradise 🕊️💪💗
