Paranoid Hip Hop Saved My Life... (yeah another Hip Hop thread)

[heBAY]

Yep...stuff that revolved around "secret societies tryin' to keep they eye on me"...NWO, RIFD chips, etc. All of the great conspiracy theory government's trying to kill me shit.

Obvious stuff:

-Public Enemy

-X-Clan

-Paris

-Geto Boys "Mind Playin' Tricks On Me" (one of the best tracks about being paranoid as shit)

90's less known shite:

-Boogiemonsters' first LP was great ("Mark Of The Beast")...the second was a little too OD.

-Sunz of Man/Killarmy were most focused out the Wu camp on shit like that.

-Non Phixion

-Jedi Mind Tricks (never felt them...but yeah they would fall into this category)

-early Atoms Family stuff like Centa Uv Da Web

-Organized Konfusion "Releasing Hypnotical Gases" ('91 I think? Incredibly ahead of their time)

Prodigy and Tragedy Khadafi were two of my favorites who would hit you in the head every now and then with a focused verse on that type of stuff...Pee's "Genesis" was ridiculous...eerie beat that came in and helped further echo the science he was dispelling.

Now discuss...favorite verses...albums...MC's...groups...

[brightbill]

Grimm & DOOM are pretty paranoid.

I guess more in a crazy way than any specific message, but.. yea.

-No Snakes Alive

-Rain Blood

-Voices Pt 0 & 1

-Geedorah's "Krazy World"

[fade to black2]

Late 90s No Limit Records (before that all star basketball compilation at least)...in particular Tru 2 da game, C-Murder's Life or Death and Master P Ghetto D

[evisu 2000]

let freedom ring with a buckshot, but not just yet

[Phyziks]

Can't forget my man Del Tha Funkee Homosapien! In particular the track "Mistadobalina".

Enjoy: http://youtube.com/watch?v=5UlAqjUu_TA

Fuck yes, i'm all about this shit. Killarmy, Sunz of Man, Gravediggaz, Killah Priest, Shabazz The Disiciple.. i could go on forever. Here's a few dope tracks

Shabazz The Disciple - Death Be The Penalty

Killarmy - Doomsday

Gravediggaz - 2 Cups of Blood

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2_RPQlz6NY&hl=en

[heBAY]

Yeah man. Thanks for the love and the contributions...

Funny shit about that DeL joint...never would've considered that for this thread...but I guess it DOES fit in.

But honestly I was looking a bit more towards the (now) cliche paranoid government's trying to implant a microchip in my newborn and watch me with the use of satellites and stealthy helicopters...not to mention that everyone is a mason and the world will soon be under one ruler with one currency and one police force...etc. etc. etc.

But the abstract or less paranoid "they're watching me" stuff like "Mista Dobalina" is fresh too.

As much as I love Gravediggaz and know that deep down inside they would be able to make albums worthy of this thread's topic, I can't really see how "2 Cups Of Blood" fits into the paranoia/government's after me thing. There's the very general 5%'er knowledge implanted ...esp. with the mention of the whole "original man" concept...but it's not really up to snuff with the whole Behold A Pale Horse shit I'm thinkin' of.

Fuck it though...paranoid is paranoid...you could be paranoid about your girl watching as you creep on her with other hoes...or paranoid from being too high...I just revamped the thread topic twice in this reply...I"m burnt out.

[heBAY]

Can't forget aliens being real on some Area-51/Hangar 18 (not the Def Jux/Atoms Fam group) shit.

I love this shit...classic Noreaga...also should be placed in the "Classic QB" thread:

Noreaga - "Noreminati"

You Kidding me?

Yo

If you could soar the sky like a bird

Would you be disturbed to see brothers on the curb smokin herb

And cops from the third precinct rush in

Like a herd

Chargin up the league with possession

Freeze em and arrest em

Strip search em then undress em

Make the youngsters come and then sign a confession

Or would you watch the cop in the chopper

With the high powered binocular cameras

Attached the bottom of his aircraft

Takin photographs of your lab

Pointin a 50 millimeter 500 shot magazine full clip gat at your back

Hoverin the projects, spotlight shinin bright

On movin targets

Infrared light at night on dark objects

Harassin citizens who hasn't been charged yet

Would you order a flock of pelicans to jam their propellers

On top see forfeit the death system failure

Take these devils off, I witness Tom broke off

Mentally fry his brain and blow the smoke off

Killa Bee, presidential suite, Bill and Hillary

Bow and kiss my feet

Auxillary security retreat

Heavy artillary sun heat

Meet the agony defeats the cavalry

Six-pack battery back, anti-gravity raps

Snaps your head inside the bear trap

You can't adapt to the habitat

The biggest jigsaw puzzle be the world map

Niggas think that they own things and man sit high upon thrones

When you die tell me what the fuck you own

When your skin flesh and bones find a permanent home

As food for worms or fossils trapped in stone

[Rzarector (Blue Raspberry)]

What's goin on (What's goin on)

I'm just holdin on (What's goin on)

What's goin on (What's goin on)

I'm just holdin...

[Gatekeeper]

Airborne planes with ultra rays

Aerosol sprays leavin tracemarks, you're picked up on radar

Trackin your moments, political opponents

Everything you own now he owns it

From the genesis exact off the tip

Undergoin metamorphosis through computers in your offices

A crystal construct a nuclear missile

Every fifth school we produce more pistols

Documented details, shocked at retails

Shipped to the ghetto for resale

Peep the calamitist dreams and destroy the thermometers

Droppin like niggas unemployed

[Gatekeeper (Blue Raspberry)]

What's goin on, what's goin on (What's goin on)

Just holdin on, just holdin on (What's goin on)

What's goin on, what's goin on (What's goin on)

What's goin on, just holdin on (What's goin on)

[Grym Reaper]

Yo triple 6 is established

The average savage cabbage is tryin to live lavish

Off of the credit card balances

The magnetic strips that stick onto plastic

New World Order system of society that's cast us

Masses is mastered and broadcasters speak

The media breach and your optic forefathers

Topics is wild as fiction

To lessen the friction my children beware the pale rider

Your life is slipped into a microchip

I warned you with all of the mics that I grip

Cash days fade away devils roll hard

Trappin souls inside of Visa gold cards

[9th Prince]

Yo this is cerebal warfare

Nuclear golden sphere attacks the hemisphere

Leaves the human fearness of the pit of urban tears

Dedicate my life to Allah, each bar's a star

Far from Mars, for vengeance my opponents die hard

Panasonic electronic thoughts cut short your life support

Half deceased enemies are buried alive at the Wu mount enterprise

Raisin cane remain pain in the brain

Stain the mindframe

Slay like heroin bein shot in the veins

9th Prince the principle, I was born invicible

Slew with a tribute to my attribute

Weak lyricists in my cipher stay mute

My wisdom is sword justice

Chop off the head of those who can't be trusted

I'm signin off as I let my knowledge be born

Sharp like a thorn

Bloods callin themselves Gods, yo

What's goin on

Was just listening to this joint Saturday on the way to Brighton Beach. Poetic comes so nice on this.

[Case]

I think he was just saying the song "2 Cups of Blood" doesn't really fit into paranoid govt consipracy genre he was talking about.

But there are a few Gravediggaz tracks that do, hence why he listed them in the first post.

[supleme crientele]

Mr. Lif - Emergency Rations

All of his stuff is pretty paraniod but Emergency Rations starts off with a skit about government agents kidnapping him to stop free speech.

HOLY SHIT THE WORLD IS ENDING RIGHT NOW IN NYC!!!!!!!!!!

[heBAY]

okay...yeah Case got it right..."2 Cups..." isn't the best example for what I'm talking about in this thread. And as I said, Gravediggaz are def. up on the p-noid killer government shit...

Lif is def. a great choice of conspiracy theory rap artist. He's not on my favorites list (unless maybe in the list of Def Jux artists)...though I really, really dug "Arise."
