Coolio's smash hit Gangsta's Paradise was and will always be a timeless song

[@DEKMAN99]

It wasn't his song. It's a Stevie Wonder song.

[@Toothpick998]

@@DEKMAN99The beat is.

[@rondas7772]

It's the only good song he made

[@rockyjeterwebb1718]

​@@DEKMAN99He wrote Gangsta's Paradise and sampled Stevie Wonder's song and gave him songwriting credit. So, he actually did write the song with Stevie Wonder's stamp of approval.

[@londomanfair3903]

Imagine a man asking to carry your luggage for a few dollars and you tell him no. And years later the same man becomes a legend. Coolio and Cube would've been monumental.

[@brianstots5190]

Cube dropped the ball many times. Look at how many billions they lost by disbanding N.W.A. All the talent that was discovered and produced by members of that group is unbelievable. Bone Thugs and Eminem could have been on the same label.

[@nastyc85]

Legend? 🤣😂😭 1 hit wonder.

He would have never fulfilled his destiny if Cube had said "yes". "Sometimes one has to just let go & let GOD..." 🙏🏿

R.I.P. Coolio I am a Asthmatic been suffering with all my life I can remember being little having to spend days and nights under oxygen tents in the hospital. I can truly say it's no fun nor a game being deprived of oxygen.

[@ericfreeman1303]

I agree asthma can be suffocating I know. Keep that inhaler

[@wisdomseeker3362]

It can be very scary!😮

[@angelalynn9393]

It's very scary. I am an asthmatic and suffered throughout the 90s. But then in early 2000s, I found a physician who helped find the right meds for me and get it under control and I no longer suffer with it. Didn't know Coolio did 😮 RIP Gangsta Paradise star 🙏

Thank you for doing this. My favorite song by Coolio is Fantastic Voyage. I remember watching the video on MTV as a kid. It was on everyday after school. It was a fun song everyone at the beach just having fun. I didn’t know Coolio was up in the bay the South Bay in San Jose either. Thanks for all the research you did on this.💖

He talks about a lot of us had to stand in the county line for our paper stamps & our every 1rst & 15th of the month....some of us is still standing in the "County Line". Peep the chorus "Ain't Nothing Change But The Time, I Gotta Get Mines. I'm Standing In The County Line "....Go back & peep county line, its hilarious AF...... 😂😂😂😂😂😂🤔🤔
