If it’s brought up to hip hop heads true hip hop heads will have to acknowledge G-Rap this at the time was a banger the East needed. East Coast emcees didn’t really make a lot of noise about the harsh realities of the neighborhoods the way west coast rappers did. I believe without Kool G-Rap you don’t get a Nas, Big, or Jay-Z without him.

Kid- "Uncle G Rap, when I grow up, I wanna be a rapper and a gangster, just like you." G Rap- "No, no. See, you can be a rapper, but you can't be a gangster. You don't wanna be a gangster." Truth told, there. If you follow the song, you see that's where the story is going.
