Three Six Mafia - In the Ghetto

Last 2 Walk
December 4, 2007

[@bodensick]

Elvis was born (literally) in a one room shack in Tupelo, Miss. The small house only had one big room divided into living and sleeping quarters. He then moved to a government housing project in Memphis. His father was out of work and they were broke. Yeah, Elvis knows about growing up dirt poor. So, when he sang about "Ghetto" he knew what that was all about.

[@donm2067]

People forget about us poor white folk, its like we never saw addiction or had to pick food or bills. Mind you thats mostly behind me now.

[@ralphcordero4496]

They did a great job Elvis would be proud

[@crystalynkoch1806]

Actually no he wouldn't. He wouldn't stand for drugs nor the rap, especially with such a good song. This song is amazing and now it is ruined with whatever this is.

[@hillbillyhippie4235]

Yes he would

One of the coolest beats I've ever heard

[@gregropp1249]

THIS MUST BE RE-RELEASED (and with a longer mix). THIS is PURE GOLD. A HIT that was overlooked and crosses over into different genres, different generations, different cultures and LIKE ELVIS, mixes them all together to come up with something brilliant, fresh and new. Doubt the guys will ever see this, but damn, THIS STILL has legs... it would sad as hell to see this slip into total obscurity.

[@angelika_munkastrap4634]

I knoooow right, it needs way more done with it, longer, an intro, more verses telling their story, it's like as soon as it starts it's over

[@ludotoyhunter8492]

They wouldn’t clear the samples for the song to be released. The Elvis estate wasn’t coming up off the permission slip!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@MPK112233]

I love this song, a hidden gem that will sadly, unlikely be properly released. Maybe one day Paul will drop it. Not even sure if it's been properly mixed. Feels like there was another verse or two left off, maybe they had a feature planned.

[@samuraicollins2218]

@@ludotoyhunter8492 u absolutely correct. I was working for EPE(Elvis Presley Enterprise) around the time this album was about to drop and they wouldn't clear the sample which was dumb as hell because the shit would've been a hit

[@ludotoyhunter8492]

@@samuraicollins2218 I could hear it now: “who wants it? The satanic mafia? What? Oh, three six? What’re they a heavy metal…wait huh? Hip hop? The rapper bang bang killer guys? They want Elvis music?! Oh that’s easy. HELL NO!!!!!!!”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 and from experience you KNOW DAMN WELL I aint lying!!!

[@NyQuilDonut]

It's too bad they didn't make more verses for this. I'm not a 36 Mafia fan but this was a really good idea to sample this song.

[@taydub88]

How is one not a three 6 mafia fan?

[@ladyelvis1111]

LOVE THIS & ELVIS always & forever!!

[@rriojasjr4820]

So much respect for these men...Elvis and 3 6....for life!!!!;

[@lesaburnette6944]

I Agree. This was. Something else.

[@liliaa.espinoza5084]

I like that they used Elvis song "in the ghetto "and at the end used "walk a mile in my shoes" but it was really good

[@mattandersonmusic]

They grew up a few blocks from graceland. Write what you know. Bravo 👏

[@scarface18707]

Memphis' finest; Three 6 and Elvis.

[@TERMINATOR226]

Only 36 can put elvis in a song and make it gangsta

[@brittneyking4284]

@Google commie Fktard he grew up in that environment. Idk wtf people r talking about tbh

[@Mossy500A]

This is good; wish it was a full-length song.

[@lisaratley4858]

If there’s something after this life, Elvis is smiling! Awesome!

[@depper]

This song should be REMADE in haste. Get together with Elvis Presley Enterprises and get this DONE. This is the PERFECT time to do a song like this right.

[@ckeeling12]

always been a Elvis fan...this is really nice his message at the end so profound.

[@lamonmack3037]

Great 😊 song

[@BlAcKxJe5uS]

@sprayfarg 36 mafia grew up only neighborhoods away from where elvis was born....they were both born in one of the poorest parts of memphis tenessee...they arent wanna bees they knew what it was like...a wanna be is a rapper that never went through hard times...elvis was born into poverty and, even through controversy in this song, elvis sung this song in the 50's and 36 mafia decided to remix it....36 mafia were born into poverty and did a superb job of remixing this song...well done 36 mafia

[@Justin-vb8ke]

NBAGoldBoston DJ Paul’s mom was an Elvis fan.

[@silkeotd7194]

Elvis grew up extremely poor but he was born in Tupelo, Mississippi. He moved to Memphis whe he was about 13 I believe. 36 Mafia apparently grew up close to Graceland (his later famous home in Memphis once he was well known and bought that house for his family.) So no doubt they all understood what it was like to grow up poor.

[@anthonyd8997]

Short song but it was🔥🔥🔥

[@warpath420]

2 of Memphis greatest on a track!!! This made my mufuckin day yo!!!!!

[@grahammorrison7841]

As a massive Elvis fan,have to say that is a fantastic version if a classic song🎶👏🎶

[@SuperSonicStress]

I wish this would been on that cd

[@sly7390]

I was watching a reaction video of Elvis and the Black Community and seen these guys speaking and remixing Elvis's song In the Ghetto. It sounded good during that documentary so can here to listen to the entire song. Not a fan of rap I did enjoy this and pretty much describes how life is for some unfortunately. What's bad is when the song was wrote originally, years later Elvis recorded it, and now there are so many families STILL living in that situation. So as much as technology has advanced and our country grew...living below poverty & struggling to survive is still occurring. 🥺

[@shayrie444]

I just did the same

[@sadeaton]

Man that was great, I have never heard it before and it was recorded years and years ago.

[@tipwifeyy]

want the whole song... luv it!

[@Tanzungeheuer]

This song is amazing.

[@corvettezcorvettez]

Found you guys and your channel by searching elvis mixes. You guys sound great ✌💪love the beats and samples. Im a elvis and rockabilly fan .but you guys rock😍 peace 🙏💪👍stay safe

[@annieemanniee]

This needs to be part of the 2022 movie soundtrack 👏🏾

I don't like Rap music but these guys knock it out the Park! 😊

Elvis loved memphis.

[@lesaburnette6944]

Omg. This was awesome. I loved. Every second of it. Wow. And the was you had Elvis. In it. Was. Great. I'm glad. Great music like this. Lives on. This Remix. Is. So Great. ..peace. Love. And as always stay safe. And we'll.

Love This Song Three 6 Mafia & Elvis....Still Everyday Life

[@notactive1894]

THIS IS TRUE LOVE NO MATTER WHAT SKIN TYPE YOU HAVE. BIG UP

[@angelika_munkastrap4634]

I would have loved to see them do even more with this, a nice intro leading into Elvis's bit, some more verses from them too, but it's lovely and I love the ending

[@huey_p_buckem8947]

i think this is one of their best tracks, sad its only 1.56sec..:(

[@ChubbRubbins]

I completely agree. Today, 2 minutes is an average track, and I'm SMH

[@seanfitzpatrick4730]

Elvis Presley and Hip-Hop go together if Elvis was out now young and in his prime and looking cool like he did in the early sixties and fifties I'm sure he would be doing songs with hip hop artist he like the bling bling to Slick hair the Pumped Up colors he would look good in hip hop style this is classic too bad it wasn't released in the CD a whole song of this what a shame Three 6 Mafia in the king cant beat that

[@ludotoyhunter8492]

Hard to believe that it was Elvis first and then years later, the next biggest act out of Memphis was Three 6. That’s wild.

[@GEORGEJONES2ND]

these two are awesome, i wish i had moved to memphis sooner so i could have met em at a club or somethin

[@sandyanimalrescueholt2976]

Love this!!!!!!

[@geraldritchey4490]

To bad its short it should have been longer good song though dueces R.I.P Elvis

[@BlakSpade420]

Know this is the Three Six I love to hear. They need to get back to this type of sound because it seems like Three six beats and lyrics aint the same as back in the day.

[@selfinflicted69smoking18]

They should’ve have released this . I’m a 51 year old white boy and I really dig this .

[@robertcordell7312]

They did, back in like 09 or a lil earlier, I was in military jamming this…. It was so short they created this in a tv episode in like 10 mins just playing around showing the camera man how they make. A sample, they didn’t expect it to be much of nothing so never gave it any play just put it in their cd, I allways loved it bc it was such an instant hit to me, I’m from m town so this resonates real highly for me, delta Ms Inverness to be exact just like bb king( no he didn’t come from Indianola) moved to Memphis and some how survived it

[@BlAcKxJe5uS]

@BlakSpade420 it was this short bcuz they only remixed it for a documetary about elvis....i bet everyone who saw this video other than the 9 people tht dont like it would want it published into a full song....but ur right no other rappers could make a song this short and this good.....36 Mafia & Elvis forever

[@DJAZAlwayz]

not sure , but these two are sample kings.......

[@MPK112233]

Man I love this beat so much, I hate that this song was never finished. It gives me goosebumps. If I get a chance to run into Paul again I'm going to see if he can drop it.

[@jac91ify]

This should have been released. Probably a copyright issue.

[@johnnymp3seed]

***** think its from a mixtape so they didn't profit from it

[@javi__...]

+Jesse Campa they worked on this song for an elvis special on abc about ten years ago. not sure it was that.

Was Elvis REALLY poor & from the hood: YES. Example: He didn't own his own pair of shoes until he was 9. THAT'S POOR.
