Willie D Tells the Story Behind Bushwick Bill Getting Shot, Infamous Album Cover

#1570 w/Willie D & Mike Judge:
open.spotify.c...

[@WillieDLive]

If making lemonade out of lemons was a recording group. We really had no idea of how iconic the album cover would become when we shot it. We were just doing what we had to do to keep the machine called the Geto Boys going. It's a reminder that there is no perfect time to pursue your goals. Willpower and execution is sufficient.

*According to an interview with music journalist Brian Coleman for his 2007 book Check the Technique, Bill said: “It still hurts me to look at that cover because that was a personal thing I went through... I still feel the pain from the fact I’ve got a bullet in my brain... I think it was pretty wrong to do it, even though I went along with the program at first.”*
