Title: Sad songs
Post by: The Angry Hand of God on April 20, 2011, 12:41:05 PM
So, as those who know me know, I like nothing better than gathering up a bunch of depressed people and playing them one sad song after another.

What are your favourite sad hip hop joints ever?

I'm talking stuff like Immortal Technique's Dance with the Devil, Ghostface's All that I got, Last Emp and Grimm Reaper's One life and Vanilla Ice's Ice Ice baby.

Which songs make you think "damn! this dude should just slice his wrists"?

I used to think the most depressing song of all time was  undoubtedly Remedy- Never Again.  But after reading  'The Holocaust Industry' and watching 'One-third of the holocaust', my sentiments have drastically changed.  This the type of material that would make Dr. Normal Finkelstein bust a nut.

I must have a twisted mind because songs like All I got by Ghostface are more uplifting as dude is about his rough last but now he's mad it. So I see them in a positive light. Sad songs are the terrible rap love songs you hear about trifling chicks who "broke" some dude's heart after the same ish been done to you and songs which talk about people dying like Miss You by Biggie when you have lost someone and makes you think of them. Dudes in the States going on about hardships which I don't find different from what we grew up in and never thought we were doomed and realized when older that we was in a messed up hood don't make me feel sad or anything.

*almost forgot this here....

Q Unique - The Set Up

1st verse:

"My world was a broken scene and a broken home/
Broken dreams, and an open throne/
My world ' my mother doing her best at avoiding doom/
Me and my brother sleep on a cot in the boiler room/
My world was a lineup for welfare getting food stamps/
And moms working at shit jobs to feed her two champs/
My world was my cousin leaving the earth in a hearse/
And my pops reappearing only to make matters worse/
My world was watching dad beating up on mama/
Brining his girlfriend to the house, only increased the drama/
My world was divided once mom broke out/
Took Jay with her and left me a mind full of doubt/
My world was discovering the bullshit... sittin' broke/
With dad smoking and sniffing coke with different folks/
My world was stealing from grandma for dads bad habits/
And my cousin John died a heroine addict/
My world was a beat down for bad answers/
And I plotted dad's murder, God knows I had chances/
My world was a stepmother three years older then me/
God was at the door, the Devil was holding the key..."
