IS HE CRAZY? | Rap Fan Reacts To Guns N' Roses - Welcome To The Jungle

[@paulklaes816]

This song arose from when he first moved to LA, as soon as he stepped off the bus some guy said to him "welcome to the jungle you're going to die".

[@SebastianSmith-c5t]

It's was actually NYC. He talks about it at the Ritz '88 show.

[@rebeltvr6046]

That was Bronx actually.

[@MannyBrum]

@@SebastianSmith-c5t The song is about LA and his first visit to Hollywood after leaving Indiana, but the thing the guy said to him was in NYC. The song was written in Seattle when it struck him how big LA is compared to Seattle and brought back the feeling of first going there in the early 80s. There's a lot of confusion over which city the song is talking about because of this but it is indeed talking about LA, particularly Hollywood.

Can we have a moment for Steven Adler? The drums were crucial to this song. Young, blonde and talented. He was stunning on drums... before the heroin.

The rhythm guitarist Izzy (also called Whizzy and jizzy due to unfortunate incidents Slash is still equally amused and salty about) actually was a heroin dealer. He dealt on a street level up to big bands such as Aerosmith or Mötley Crue. He was the one bringing in the most money that allowed them to try being musicians without completely starving. The remaining money came from bandmembers scamming woman, getting money from stripper girlfriends or working in a bakery. Their house was called the Hellhouse because it was a literal infested shithole in the wall. So yeah, the drug dealer perspective makes a lot of sense :D

Like Kickstart My Heart, that was all about Motley's bassist Nikki Sixx and his crazy trip of dying three types to subsequent heroin ODs and revivals.

Rap, Rock, Reggae etc. = music Black, White, Korean etc. = people Enjoy life forget color's race ethnicities etc... We all have struggles and some people make it easier and some never do but at least don't give up! #stopthehate

[@0iceman092]

exactly i hate it when people bring race into music

This album was the bridge between hair bands and grunge. One of the best ever. Iconic. Epic. Keep up the great videos!

Nobody matches axl in his singing…one of the best of all times and is still the master of his talent.

[@annestep6741]

so loving your reactions and I haven't heard some of these songs in many years. Brings me back, wow

[@neilmartin99]

Yes, Axl is definitely crazy. Next question.

[@CarrieLuikens]

It was his "craziness" that made the G-n-R music larger than life, thrilling and edgy. Yet most of the fans love Axl anyway...except maybe those he yelled at onstage or got into fights with.... (he wasn't the only hard rock musician who did that though)

We had this song play when the DJ introduced my husband and I for our wedding reception.

The first time I saw them in concert I was 15, a bunch of older chicks I hungout with had an extra ticket. They dressed me in a black mini skirt, black sparkly stockings, teased my hair 5 inches high and piled on the makeup. Halfway through the concert a bouncer came up to me and asked if I wanted to meet the band backstage after the show. I was like sure. After the show I jetted out of there! My girlfriends like your crazy! I was petrified. My mother would have killed me if she knew I went. My friend from this day who I went with asked if I regretted that. Hell no lol not at that age. Who knows what would have happened if I gone back there! Especially after the stories I heard what they would get those girls to do. I might’ve been a dumb teen but I’m not stupid.

Is he making a baby? No, that's in the middle of "Rocket Queen"
