Gangster Rappers Vs Street Rappers | Whats The Difference?

[@blkwarriorspirit5528]

Great conversation. Gotta separate gangsta ish and ganglife and regular street ish. In Cali ganglife had it's era called the set trip era 80z thru 2000z or present depending on who on what lol. Gangsta ish is you on yo solo dolo ish. Street ish is you just a street savvy cat that try to stick to the street code. Ganglife is errthang you do represents the set you claim. Social media and gentrification had a huge impact on all three gettdowns. Gubbament infiltration played a role in our self destruction 2. Peace Eiht, Big Steele and guest.

It still like that

That is pure nonsense!

[@therealmbmse1235]

GANGSTER SHIT: Robbing, gang bangin, killing & kidnapping STREET SHIT: hustling, gambling, pimpin, & scamming

[@leonleon2276]

If you part of a gang organization, there’s rules and regulations and politics to follow. If you get down on the streets the exact same way.. You still gangster….but you ain’t got no rules or politics to mess about with…and you don’t inherit any beef

[@shonemarcus2966]

HAPPY THANKSGIVING DAY BIG STEELE, M.C. EIHT & SOREN! GOD BLESS YOU BROTHER'S AND YOUR FAMILIES. DUCES UP, FROM CA. L.A.

[@chuckedward580]

Gang bangin ain't the definition of Gangster tho. Maybe to LA but everywhere else, gangster stuff is gangster stuff. Ironically I would say that a homie gettin down in the streets without claiming a gang is more gangster. Ya'll splitting hairs and using alternative definitions.

[@yo3rdtier128]

Car thieves, robbers and gang bangers are not gangsta’s. The real gangsta’s pushed drugs ran dope houses or pushed weight and dressed the part, Eiht is dusty street rapper wearing chucks

[@CaliforniaCalifornia-gp4hv]

It is the definition of gangster rap Los Angeles Chicago also would be gangster rap dope boys are street dudes

[@ants8527]

Yall forgot about South Central Cartel, OFTB, Dub'C, Mac 10, Celly Cel, Mac Mal, RBL Possie And Mac And AD of Totally Insane.

[@NIGGA4LIFE]

Shot out to Mac from totally insane....Kool brother...he had a lot of old skools cars when I use to deal wit him in Stockton c.a.

[@bigdubt2003]

[@MajorMolee]

I thought the word gangsta didn't come from gangs...I thought it came from the mafia....mob niggas

[@G_Signer]

Wrong

[@prophetx8482]

@@G_Signer the term gangster been around way before tookie and Raymond. The emulation of Italian culture is where majority of criminal activity begin in America

[@mvwi1]

I agree that C-Bo was the more gangsta rapper between him and Coolio although Coolio did make references to gangbanging on "Fantastic Voyage", "Gangsta's Paradise" and "C U When U Get There" as well as "Colorblind".

[@moneefloyd6009]

Very informative fellas, thx 😊

Great topic 👏 gud breakdown Ehit

Gangster Rap and a real life Gangster is two different things. Gangster rap is version of hip hop music. A Real life Gangster is anything involving violence to survive....

[@jamar95little24]

Drug dealers vs gang banging

[@moneymac5214]

What's the difference between Thug music and Ganksta music

[@SMOOTHCUTPRODUCTION]

We might have to do a show on this too

[@VGCl]

How can you not consider 8 ball in MJG being a gangster rap I guess Mr Mike wasn't too

[@Mayo2014]

As an East coast native… I never thought of that … but yeahh they was talking hood gangsta shit .. I remember hearing their first album

[@demetriusrousseau7919]

Crime Boss and Tela as well. There's a song called "Strange" from the "Piece Of Mind" album as thrown in for example.

[@oldschool5]

Yeah they was Hella Gangsta but more general Gangsta. Mack 10's song Back Yard Boogie has no gun play or no criminal activity and its more gangsta than some folks diss tracks. West Coast Gangstaism is an entity within itself.

[@yeenkno]

I’m wit steel on this you ain’t gotta be a gang member to be a gangster but I’m Frm the south

“1, 2, 3, 4, get your woman on the floor, gonna gonna get up n get down “ gonna gonna get up n get down”…I remember that cut Lol 👊🏼

[@johnnyguitarwatson5288]

My section in south L.A growing up the street dude & hustlers had to take they business outside the hood because so many FOLKS was getting busted on by the VICIOUS warring sets📉📉📉📈📉 coming thru SHOOTING at each other as rivals! I agree it's a difference between street and gang banging! Seen alot dudes STREET standing outside serving get smoked by gangbangers!

[@cashjerseyblock2890]

Mr. Scarface was gangsta rap, y’all buggin

[@demetriusrousseau7919]

Also the group "Do Or Die" as well.

[@deanabdulhaqq2082]

He is not a gang banger though, and that is the difference.

[@CaliforniaCalifornia-gp4hv]

Gangster rap mean being a crip being a dope not the same too different worlds . Jay z was a dope boy mc eiht was a crip

[@CaliforniaCalifornia-gp4hv]

​@@deanabdulhaqq2082yep

[@jamar95little24]

No he wasn't.

[@keldorthebluemack]

Funny Steele mentioned Beanie Segal at the beginning of the video bcuz i was just thinkin bout i didn't see Beanie on anybodys list

[@onceagain6184]

Gangsta rap comes from West Coast gang culture. East Coast is reality rap/hardcore. East Coast rap can involve street stuff but its not gangsta rap.

[@Marcus-Lprofit123]

EXACTLY 💯 The West coast is GANGSTA RAP = Gang culture The EAST coast culture is HARDCORE RAP = Street /urban culture END OF STORY

[@VGCl]

Vampire Grinch Cleveland Ohio MCH was dead wrong I'm not realizing that 8 ball and MJG is he didn't even answer the question

[@nicstone3141]

OH I see got it now A west coast gangster has to be a gang member but thats not the case everywhere else

[@WestboundPromo416]

Mc eiht = gangster rapper 50 cent = street rapper Sh-t like that eiht is right💯💯💯💯

[@ahkielbey2157]

"you can nail me to the muthaf...in wall you can bust me in the head wit gats, but punk ass nikka I be back" this was one of the hardest gangsta lines I ever heard!!! Woo that's hard!!

[@DaResetButton]

There is a difference. Early Nas & Jay Z was street rap. Not gangsta rap. Every gangsta rap is street rap but not every street rap is gangsta rap

[@proworldchannel]

Yes sir Beenie is gangsta rap jus different locations, I was on loc down wit Tray Dee. Anything that pertains to the streets and living a illegal lifestyle is a gangsta rapper aka gangsta poetry. Gangsta is jus a label it's on the individual to present his or her own life style. O yeah I forgot the industry make you a gangsta to the world. Which then is a stereotype. What is the difference between Italian mob and Bloods and CRIPS. Nothing we all are labeled 😉 Thanks for the opportunity to here my comment. Respects from the Carver's. ✊🏾♾️ BG.SandMan.

[@Rasan619]

So would drill rap be a sub genre of gangsta rap? Those dudes are from gangs (GD, BD, etc)

[@SMOOTHCUTPRODUCTION]

I kinda think they made their own lane

[@moneymac5214]

Here's the question. What do ganksta rappers talk about different than hard core street rappers. Without mentioning gang banging because gangs dont define gangsta music. Every Gangsta rapper music is not gangsta on every song so is it safe to say , ganbanger can make a pop song, can a gang banger make a street song......

[@realitydrakesrealitydpoet3727]

Like I commented on your previous video, DMX was as HARD AS THEY COME when he first started dropping RAP ALBUMS back in 1998. Can't NOBODY tell me that the lyrics DMX was spitting was not GANGSTER. And unlike MOST so-called GANGSTER RAPPERS, DMX actually LIVED the lifestyle he RAPPED about. DMX had a criminal record going ALL THE WAY BACK to his CHILDHOOD. He started off in FOSTER HOMES, JUVENILE DETENTIONS, and then PRISONS. He was KNOWN in his home town of YONKERS NEW YORK for ROBBING PEOPLE. And as a rapper, DMX had the most RAW, FEROCIOUS, AGGRESSIVE, and HOSTILE rhyme style and had the most GRIMY, RUGGED, and HARDEST rapping voice. And DMX rapped from the HEART. DMX was a STREET RAPPER, GANGSTER RAPPER, AND even a GOSPEL RAPPER. That nigga had RANGE. I am VERY SURPRISED that DMX'S name never came up in this video or your previous video about GANGSTER RAP ALBUMS. Talk to me.

[@SMOOTHCUTPRODUCTION]

Honestly I am too

[@HUSTLER-AT-HEART]

I think dmx was a more of a thug versus being a gangster he was solo and had no gang but dark man X was real

[@SMOOTHCUTPRODUCTION]

@@HUSTLER-AT-HEART I used to see him on sunset blvd by himself like he had no idea he was a celebrity all the time

[@realitydrakesrealitydpoet3727]

@@HUSTLER-AT-HEART I totally understand your point of view and it has a lot of truth to it. However, DMX did have the RUFF RYDERS behind him, and they are an ENTIRE crew of STREET CATS that has gotten busy with some ILLEGAL street activities from time to time. That is the FUNCTIONAL definition of GANGSTERS. Whenever you have an ORGANIZED group of THUGS AND CRIMINALS working as a UNIT, that is a GANG. It does not have to be only the BLOODS AND CRIPS to be considered a GANG. Any group of THUGS operating and associating with each other in one group, clique, or operation is a GANG. The RUFF RYDERS are basically a GANG and DMX claimed the RUFF RYDERS as HIS CREW and SET, and DMX had VIOLENT LYRICS that talked about a lot of criminal activities, so that DEFINITELY puts DMX in the category of being a GANGSTER RAPPER. And his LIFESTYLE and CRIMINAL RECORD proves that fact. Am I correct?

[@mringram]

Gangsta vs street? I understand trying to create content

[@SMOOTHCUTPRODUCTION]

What is confusing about that?

[@CaliforniaCalifornia-gp4hv]

Gangster is being in a crip hood rapping about his set and criping street rap thugs is different

[@moneymac5214]

Snoop dogg Doggy style........ Was that snoop biggest Album and if so ,why wasn't he able to to top his first album

[@topchannelone9190]

[@KDCYCO]

Enjoyed the interview but at the end of the day you still didn’t explain the difference lol!!

[@joecollins176]

I think gangster rap is pretty much west coast rap it’s the life style it’s the beats it’s a combination of it all that made it gangster rap .dmx is not gangster rap it’s street hop or street music

[@TheOneAndOnlyWisCali]

💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 CRUCIAL SESSION!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@oneyone3223]

just cuz you rap about the gang life dont mean you lived it.....alot of the old cat's be faking it to making it ....and if the og's of rap think ripping off people online is gangster then shit all fucked up....a real gangster jack yo money in person not behind a keyboard safe at home......broke people acting like they still rich ...dont need to lie we all know the real deal

The industry over the years has lost their judgment on rappers on how to appropriately entitle their rap style The EAST COAST created and represents HARDCORE RAP.....The west coast created and represents GANGSTA RAP....Big difference. And end of story

[@prophetx8482]

So by that opinion the only gangsta in America is from California. This really needed somebody that can really articulate thoughts and rebute what is being said

[@jeremyhart3871]

Beanz is a gangsta rapper just like 2Pac quit playing beanz is nothing to play wit for real especially back in 98 99 2000s he's one of the reasons kats think twice before they started a beef with the Roc...if you ain't never had a altercation with a kat in the industry your not a gangsta facts because if you was in the streets doing these things u can hide it for so long from the industry because its to many fake rappers outta pocket that needs to be checked they food let's keep it real
