Daddy's .Princess verse 1 is debatable but the first 3 or 4 lines are indicative of anxiety. Like I said all 4 verses are laced with paranoia. I don't see schizophrenia at all. Maybe the first verse but not more than anxiety and paranoia. Schizophrenia is characterized by disorganised thought. Explain how verse 4 is schizophrenia. He starts that verse in the midst of a hallucination. The listener doesn't know if drugs, something he ate , smoked, lack of sleep, or any other mental illnesses caused this hallucination. Schizophrenia is not the only thing that causes hallucinations. Schizophrenia is sometimes seen as the extreme of paranoia. But it's not. Paranoid schizophrenia is a specific type of schizophrenia. Not an extreme. The most successful people in life are paranoid. Look up Steve Jobs greatest quotes. Now the song as a whole could be seen as schizophrenic because of the happy beat and difference between the verses. It has a disorganised feel as a whole but each verse independently is whole.
This is one of the most important songs in hip-hip history. They were rapping about mental health in the early 90s: PTSD, paranoia, the stress that comes from success, depression, emotional isolation, suicide, hallucinations, schizophrenia, all spread out over four different and distinct stories. Geto Boys are all-timers for this one.
I've been listening to this banger for years, as I fully associated it will my mental health and paranoia... to see you say it's about 4 different stories, that's crazy to think about. I've related to 95% of it all, as one single person. It truly is a fantastically diverse song for anyone, really.
@@joelgerman9621 You really think they just made this song because the beat is catchy? There's obvious messages and commentary going on here, and if you don't see that then you either don't or are tone deaf.
Still listening to this 30 plus years later still relevant. This was a big bang on me when it was first released way back as a psychology major...opened my brain to clinical psychology. I still use this track today to teach it to my students. This track is a whole semester course in abnormal psychology. Rest on, Bushwick
His mind isn't really playing tricks on him. It's a self preservation, survival thing. That can lead to the exact thing you are avoiding, happening & in a neverending loop of circumstance to those around and those after you.
When this single dropped I was a senior in HS, '91 I believe. Today, the subject matter is no big deal for a Hip Hop song. but at the time, it was ground-breaking. Rappers didn't really write songs about stress, regret, fears, etc. If they did, it was a buried B side, not the single pushing an album. I loved the way these guys rapped, very jerky and abrupt. they were not smooth, but they were real. You could feel it in the bars. Guitar lick samples were catchy as hell, too. It was dismissed at first by the media music reviewers as a Texas NWA rip-off. But you could tell that there was a diamond in the rough. With a bit more production value put in to developing the act, they might have had broader appeal.
dude. its about selling base. and getting addicted to it. and the paranoia that comes with it. while "dark" as a theme. its really saying. dont smoke, sell or touch that shit. so it has a positive message
@@DJChrisArgueta but they werent about that either. scarface and company were and are legends. and HUGE. even jay-z (whom in not a big fan of, but from my city) credits them as a huge influence.

28 years ago. I listened to Ice-T and The Geto Boys in the same week. Hooked for life. Scotland has a huge rap/hip-hop following for population size. I've seen some legends at the Barrowlands in Glasgow.
I miss the greatest era in hip hop. Back when it was for and by black people. Today's garbage is a minstrel show for white people and full of culture vulture white boys who are trying to be what they are not.
ArseneWenger Yes. No spoilers from me for the trailer but the message behind the character and the movie itself seems to describe the world we live in today. I recommend you see the trailer if you haven’t by Joaquin Phoenix.
This Song is not normal. Unreal Beat, Deep Storytelling and 3 Niggas killed this song bars for bars. One Of The Best Song I've ever heard. In my Top 5. Classic Real Rap. RiP Bushwick Bill🙏🏾
I think the Geto Boys is one of the few groups that doesn't glorify the gangster lifestyle, but point out constantly how much pain, self destruction, and inevitable early death is the constant cost of trying to play that game. These guys are more real than a lot of other rappers out there, even during the early 90s and late 80s
GAMING WITH ZACH did you mean to say Saturn and switch up the pattern? That song pretty corny and that album is definitely hot garbage if you compare it to acid rap and 10day
Cole LaCasse I know that’s why I did a wink lmao it’s hot trash ngl lie though I like some of Eminem’s more recent music because there ain’t rly much mumbling in it
This one ranks up there with the best rap classics of all time....you know it's good when after all these years you still don't want to see it end.....you wish it was longer.
Oh damn. Okay, so reports came out yesterday that he died. Earlier this morning his son was saying he had not died and was fighting, but now reports have come out that he died just a few hours ago. Damn, R.I.P.
I remember rapping this song back and forth with my pops. He looked at me and said “When I was a kid, I never thought I’d be rapping this with my 13 year old son” 😂 that was 15 years ago. I can still rap this song from start to finish.
I remember my 8th grade teacher back in the early 90’s (Florence Middle School Dallas,Tx ) put this video on for us and taught us about drugs and mental illness.
"The more I swung, the more blood flew/ Then he disappeared and my boys disappeared too. Then I felt just like a fiend./ It wasn't even close to Halloween!" What a brilliant anticlimax!
“My hands was bloody from punching on the concrete.” Such a visceral line because I’ve been drunk as hell before and fucked up my hand from punching walls.
My favorite bro in the Marines loved this song. As a “light green” Marine I always said “what the hell kind of music is this?” when he put it in my cassette player in my 1989 Sentra. He’s gone today and now when I hear this song I smile and cry tears of love.
Geto boys old school legendary nothing wrong with the old school hits still poppin today and it feels good because I am getting older but you know what I'll keep Poppin the geto boys
Man Bushwick Bill ur in my prayers.... I was born n the early 90's.... Throwbackkkk man... Pray thru god.... You will beat this💙💙💙💜💜💜 Edit: rest im heavenly peace❤

First rap song ever to expose the intense rap scene in the 90's along with the paranoia, chaos and mental illness that often accompanied it. One of the best rap songs ever. Genius lyrics. RIP Bushwick Bill.
My dad used to bump this when I was just a lil kid. I remember it being clear since it was one of my first memories when we moved into a new house in a new city. Shout out to you pops.
A I that happened a lot back in the early 90s cuz most was drug dealers, GDs, Crips, Bloods etc who had to look over they shoulders every minute which caused paranoia. Those were the good ol’ dayz but too dangerous at the same time
And it’s dumb that’s people that don’t know shit about it or never went through it act like they’ve seen it all, and a lot of people in the hood wanna get out of cause of the shit they go through, people get killed right in front of them, drugs break families apart, it’s sad

Paranoia is present all 4 verses but the main theme of

Verse 2 - Paranoia
Verse 3 - Depression
Verse 4 - Hallucinations
Ten of Cups 1 and 2 are both paranoia and 4 is schizophrenia

Have you ever tried cocaine for about 10 years????? Y’all don’t know shit
This song is so fucking deep it goes over most people's heads
How can a song have such dark content but be so uplifting at the same time
For real that's what I'm thinking. Shit is genius made
Johnny Mav Its not actually uplifting it just feels that way when you can relate to something.
Tmi Icon yea, I don't feel uplifting, I feel the music is just fit to the lyrics. I get chills everytime I listen to the last 30s.

Yup yup! I make sure I play this every Holloween..
Born 1987 in Los Angeles
@Chief Trey lol.. true true..
Y'all should check out my remix of this song! It's on my channel. Tupac raps perfectly over this beat!
Brotha Lynch and X raided belong right up there with the geto boyz...those early-mid 90s three 6 mafia as well 👌🏻
They used to have a drag (racing) car and would see them every weekend in the late 80s racing at Eastex Dragway in HTX.
Classic track. Excellent example of the art of storytelling.

I'm not big into hip hop. But this is true hip hop. Poetry, storytelling and good old fasioned backing music that can be played with real instruments.
if you're not into hip hop why do you think you know what real hip hop is? that's like saying you're colorblind but know how green should look
+Amin Haque Go back and read the characteristics I listed in true hip hop. If you're looking to argue, don't waste your time.
+RJSAWN I'm not lookin to argue I'm just saying you kind of contradicted yourself, hip hop has evolved and is still true
+Amin Haque You're taking a commeny on the internet too literal..
+RJSAWN as much as i love hip-hop you can't really credit it for instrumentals
rip bushwick, I loved your music. Way ahead of its time
True all time classic. One of the coldest beats ever
The last verse get me every time.. shit crazy
yes sir!!!! haha
Raven Ball marry me
Yeah, the first one gets me. Favorite one is the second verse
u think last verse is better than first and third verse ?
Bushwick was smokin that sherm
RIP Bill. Played this song in honor of Bill today. Took me back to 1991. A golden age for all. Cheers Big Man
this is one of the best hip hop songs of all time.
My dad used to bump this when I was just a lil kid. I remember it being clear since it was one of my first memories when we moved into a new house in a new city. Shout out to you pops.

Bushwick Bill is gone physically but lives on forever musically. That's dope!
this is one of the best rap songs I've ever heard
this song is tough af man, these dudes going through some serious psychosis, hood life aint no joke
A I that happened a lot back in the early 90s cuz most was drug dealers, GDs, Crips, Bloods etc who had to look over they shoulders every minute which caused paranoia. Those were the good ol’ dayz but too dangerous at the same time
@@AmberSumerall 💔 I grew up in England so I saw a fraction of this in films, can't imagine living it in real life
@@AmberSumerall it's the same in this day and age
@@IisCloutedd Not really mate 90's, 00's was alot like that. These things may not have left us but it's more chill know
And it’s dumb that’s people that don’t know shit about it or never went through it act like they’ve seen it all, and a lot of people in the hood wanna get out of cause of the shit they go through, people get killed right in front of them, drugs break families apart, it’s sad
"I got a little boy to look after and if I die then my child will be a bastard!" Love this song.
You could of at least liked the comment loser.
Isn’t then my child will be a pastor?
A southern hip-hop staple and one of the greatest songs of all time
So that's why I like this one, I'm a rockabilly kid myself.
Charlie Feather's my man.
Aren't they from New York?
Oh okay, must of been thinking of other rappers
Interesting! I didn't know that... I always that they were from "Bushwick"... :)
