man...this shit captures that feeling of finally being alone with your thoughts thinking about the people you've lost, and just feeling hollow. the world around you seems very quiet. and there's nothing left to feel anymore. there's no upliftment here, but you still have to try, there's nothing else.
Love that song. Crazy to think Interscope dropped him cause the album wasn‘t successful but 26 years later and 13 years after he died, this song has 1.4 mio views on TH-cam and people appreciate his music. RIP OG Sinister
Record companies expect all rap to go mainstream it's kult kulture underground society and record kompanies don't like hip hop they just exploit to make schmoney most of em anyway
Because people had better rappers to listen too. You're talking 94' with Snoop,Pac,Dre,Warren G and them all still in their prime...hell we even had Bone Thugs N Harmony... dude just couldn't compete plain and simple.
@@ZachMacc381 there was a time later had just as many murders as Chicago. Murder records were set all through the 80 and 90s in all states. Don't matter where you was at. You get killed. I lived in Arkansas and they wasn't playing in the 90s . 90s was a violent era
this line hits different, it just goes to show that sometimes its best if you just accept the fact things happen and we cannot control it no matter how hard we try and the fact revenge isn't a long term solution, just a temporary distraction.
@@clintsaunders451 that sound like live instruments or maybe a keyboard workstation. One sample maybe the flute sound. Westcoast didn’t sample that much.
This speaks to the spirit of young black/latino men who grew up in poverty. we love our friends , they become family & when they eat , we eat, they cry , we cry, when they get high , we get high, and when they die, we kill . but it never stops the pain. just a cycle of hurt.
And that's the irony of this song. Dude pouring tears over losing his friend then talks about killing other people. You lose something then take something from someone else doesn't make it equal just makes it all more f'd up.

@@sway_9803 nah thats not true man. Its the love, the heart and the Passion that was put in the music Back in the days. Todays music is all about profit and business making like never before
@@sway_9803 You listened to the song, right? He discussed revenge and how it doesn't do shit.. Real deep and youngsters today are getting killed mostly over revenge too so they need to hear it and think, as much as it hurts more blood shed = more bloodshed. But today, we have vids of people disrespecting victim's graves, for which they then also get killed.. They say not to disrespect the dead not just because of religious shit, but it brings so much more pain to the victim's family & friends.. So yeah, it's not the same, sure there's good music today but a lot less respect and the production & effort is not on the same level in a lot of it. This video does not promote violence, if anything the opposite, which again, is polar opposite to what we keep hearing on tracks today.

What a brilliant shot and great work how they filmed that, how you pointed that out also is important, I wonder if that's the intention and why they're filming the lil guy taking his hand forward like that, nonetheless it's quite brilliant almost in some kinda mythical sense too
There was so much sincerity in the music back then and this is a prime example of that. Not to be overly nostalgic but so many young men lost their lives on the streets of Los Angeles in the 80s, 90s and early 2000s because of what colours they wore or what neighbourhood they were from. Today the bloods and crips are more of a parody of what they once were, but songs like this remind us of all those soldiers who never got to grow up.

you're listening to the wrong artists than, hopsins shittiest song is about a thousand times better than this guys best, both lyrically & as far the beat's concerned. just cause it's old school doesn't mean its great or any better than anything released today. old school songs that people hated back in the day get all this false praise an hailed as a classic simply cause its from the 90's. stop doing that.
its crazy to think that music will never be the same, some say its evolving but idk... you can just feel the struggle and sincerity of this, just kicking some straight facts for the younger generation
I think the 90s extended into the early 2000s. but by late 2000s shit became fucked, and it still is. now nobody gives a shit about originality, every movie at the theatre is a fucking franchise film or a reboot/spinoff/sequel, mainstream music has become more homogeneous, AAA games lost all mechanical and strategical depth, politics became a legitimate hellscape where you have to line up with your party or gtfo, suicide and overdose rates have gone up 10 fold since early 2000s, social media has ruined our reward centers and robbed us of a traditional direct-contact social landscape, AI is about to leave an insane amount of people jobless, everybody is outraged about something, the world is setting stage for an age where china replaces the USA as the worlds superpower, true free speech is most likely on its way out, obesity is skyrocketing, and the "wild west" days of the internet are coming to an end. but we are going to be able to fuck robots so its worth it.
Now this is real gangsta music, I cant count how many times I can replay this masterpiece and never get tired of it.its a rare jem, way better than what they come out with today!
If it wasn't for YT n this channel i wouldn't even know so many hip hop artists existed in the 90's, they're all so talented and the music flow smooth 👌❤️
Yo. Real talk. West coast rap is and always will be pure fire. I just discovered this guy and Dru Down a couple days ago. Sad to say that I missed out on them for all these years.

Timothy Wayne Johnson (January 14, 1970 - November 25, 2007), better known by his stage name Sinister, was an American rapper from Los Angeles, California. He was a member of the Green Meadows Bloods gang active in Watts, California. Johnson's debut album, Mobbin 4 Life, was released in 1994 on Interscope Records while he was incarcerated. Its poor commercial success resulted in his being dropped by the label. Johnson's song "Sinful One" was featured on the 1997 Dead Homiez soundtrack, while he also made a guest appearance in the film during its 1993 filming. Johnson was released from prison and made his final recordings in 1999, which were the song "Smooth but Deadly" on the 2000 Captain Save 'Em compilation album My Cape Is in the Cleaner's and his guest appearance on Green Eyez's 2000 album High Blood Pressure. Johnson was incarcerated a second time in 1999 for conspiracy to commit murder and released from prison in 2004. Johnson was fatally shot by unknown assailants on November 25, 2007 in Watts, California. Johnson was the younger brother of Cleamon "Big Evil" Johnson, who was convicted of killing two people in 1991 and is on death row in California. Johnson's girlfriend, Shereece Camprankin, was murdered in 2001 while he was in prison. Johnson is the father of at least two children. In 1989, Johnson was acquitted of two killings. Johnson was imprisoned in 1994. He was imprisoned for a second time in 1999 for conspiracy to commit murder before he was paroled in 2004. Shortly after his release, Johnson was named by police as a suspect in the killing of another man but he was never charged.
Don’t worry, I’m archiving all dope 90s songs.... got 10,000+ songs saved ... if all these dope tracks get removed off TH-cam.. il jus reupload them all
I remember the day i first heard this cut it was 1994 if I'm not wrong the summertime . I thought it was 2 hommies but i see it was just 1homie Sinister. I never could remember the name or the face it was long ago. I only remember the hook and melody . I'm watching the TH-cam documentary ( The Life of Timothy Johnson from 89 family' Sawn Bloods ). And they mention the name of the song and who made it I said oh shit i been trying to find this song like forever. I first heard it back in the summer of 94 i could never figure out who made this song into today. From watching the TH-cam documenrty . I went to TH-cam and pulled up the song Sinister i wont forget you G 1994 . And Bammmmmmmmm ! just like that . " I Wont Forget You g " I don't know why but i always love this song it take me back to 94 and 95 they had a tv show called video music box or something . I damn near want to cry I'm a neutral i don't bang . But i am a lover of music and Hip-Hop . Thank you HOOD WAR STORIES for posting the video The Life Of Timothy Johnson from the 89 family Swan Bloods . I would of never heard this song again . I WISH NOTHING BUT ✌ TO ALL THE B'S and C'S and all the CHICANO GANGSTERS . MAY ALL YOUR HOME-BOYS REST IN PEACE .
I reminisce about the first friend I've ever lost I felt somebody just had to pay the cost Cause in the future my homie won't be around That's why it's a must That I lay some fools down I got my AK loaded it up Caught some fools slippin and **buck*buck*buck** But nothing changed Even though I laid some fools down for the homie I still felt the same So I got me a fifth of C.B Smoked some chronic and drunk myself to sleep The next morning had to face the fact That no matter what I did the homie wasn't comin back I can't believe my dog is gone away We was kickin it together just the other day It all happened so fast Some fools drove up and then straight started to blast I dove for the floor I didn't know me and my homie wouldn't kick it no more And it hurted me deep You're probably gone but I sure won't forget you G I'm not the type that wore a tuxedo So I wore a khaki suit to the funeral All the homies was there Me, Mad, Man & Stick's was a Paul Bearin' His mother has started to cry Then everybody in the church had tears in they eyes It was a sad scene G Simply, because we had a lotta love for the homie As I carried his body to the grave side I held on to his casket real tight Said my final goodbyes As I started to remember all the good times We had up at Fremont High I remember all the weed we used to smoke And how we used to go jackin for turkish ropes Bump a bitch at Skateland It seems like we had the whole world in the palm of our hand But it all ended quick So quick that I couldn't believe the shit I thought my eyes were deceiving me You're probably gone but I sure won't forget you G I sure won't forget you G I'll never forget my homie Fruit Loop Bird Man, Big Stomp, Touché or Duke I got love for the dearly departed Even though they left a nigga straight broken hearted But I know they didn't mean it though Cause life's a bitch And it was their time to go So I wrote a lil' something you can listen to Just to let you know how much I'm missin you Cause where you stood stands an empty space And nobody will be able to take your place 10 years from now you'll see You'll still be gone but I sure won't forget you G I won't forget you G I sure won't forget you G

Sinister from the hardest set recording this track with Tony Pizarro during hardest times to ever be alive. Had to be a serial killer to survive. GTA San Andreas main character was portraid from his older brother and the whole Groove Street Family was Family Swan Bloods in real life.

I love how this song makes me miss my homies and family but at the same time I’m happy because I’m remembering everything.
Still playing this in 2024
90s...The last decade of Originality
89th Street
I think the 90s extended into the early 2000s. but by late 2000s shit became fucked, and it still is.
now nobody gives a shit about originality, every movie at the theatre is a fucking franchise film or a reboot/spinoff/sequel, mainstream music has become more homogeneous, AAA games lost all mechanical and strategical depth, politics became a legitimate hellscape where you have to line up with your party or gtfo, suicide and overdose rates have gone up 10 fold since early 2000s, social media has ruined our reward centers and robbed us of a traditional direct-contact social landscape, AI is about to leave an insane amount of people jobless, everybody is outraged about something, the world is setting stage for an age where china replaces the USA as the worlds superpower, true free speech is most likely on its way out, obesity is skyrocketing, and the "wild west" days of the internet are coming to an end.
but we are going to be able to fuck robots so its worth it.
@@crimepays8358 early 2000s was just an extension of late 90s.. It all turned shit in mid 2000s
MC Akbar nope lmao
@@sway_9803 yup, and you're a good example for it
They don't make real music like this no more. Rip bro
1994 was the year rap / hip hop peaked in greatness.
G Funk Era is untouched.

Timothy Wayne Johnson (January 14, 1970 - November 25, 2007), better known by his stage name Sinister, was an American rapper from Los Angeles, California. He was a member of the Green Meadows Bloods gang active in Watts, California. Johnson's debut album, Mobbin 4 Life, was released in 1994 on Interscope Records while he was incarcerated. Its poor commercial success resulted in his being dropped by the label. Johnson's song "Sinful One" was featured on the 1997 Dead Homiez soundtrack, while he also made a guest appearance in the film during its 1993 filming.
Johnson was released from prison and made his final recordings in 1999, which were the song "Smooth but Deadly" on the 2000 Captain Save 'Em compilation album My Cape Is in the Cleaner's and his guest appearance on Green Eyez's 2000 album High Blood Pressure. Johnson was incarcerated a second time in 1999 for conspiracy to commit murder and released from prison in 2004.
Johnson was fatally shot by unknown assailants on November 25, 2007 in Watts, California.
Johnson was the younger brother of Cleamon "Big Evil" Johnson, who was convicted of killing two people in 1991 and is on death row in California.
Johnson's girlfriend, Shereece Camprankin, was murdered in 2001 while he was in prison. Johnson is the father of at least two children.
In 1989, Johnson was acquitted of two killings.
Johnson was imprisoned in 1994. He was imprisoned for a second time in 1999 for conspiracy to commit murder before he was paroled in 2004. Shortly after his release, Johnson was named by police as a suspect in the killing of another man but he was never charged.

Sadly this kind of music style most likely will not evolve back around. Over 10 years and i wont forget you g. Rip to the real rap.
I remember the day i first heard this cut it was 1994 if I'm not wrong the summertime . I thought it was 2 hommies but i see it was just 1homie Sinister. I never could remember the name or the face it was long ago. I only remember the hook and melody . I'm watching the TH-cam documentary ( The Life of Timothy Johnson from 89 family' Sawn Bloods ). And they mention the name of the song and who made it I said oh shit i been trying to find this song like forever. I first heard it back in the summer of 94 i could never figure out who made this song into today. From watching the TH-cam documenrty . I went to TH-cam and pulled up the song Sinister i wont forget you G 1994 . And Bammmmmmmmm ! just like that . " I Wont Forget You g " I don't know why but i always love this song it take me back to 94 and 95 they had a tv show called video music box or something . I damn near want to cry I'm a neutral i don't bang . But i am a lover of music and Hip-Hop . Thank you HOOD WAR STORIES for posting the video The Life Of Timothy Johnson from the 89 family Swan Bloods . I would of never heard this song again . I WISH NOTHING BUT ✌ TO ALL THE B'S and C'S and all the CHICANO GANGSTERS . MAY ALL YOUR HOME-BOYS REST IN PEACE .
I love the 90's especially these slow-jam triple ogee gangsta beats
This is soo calming
Shout-out from Kenya...THIS IS HIPHOP!!!!
This is GFunk
This is g FUNK
First time hearing this I was like 17 good times
I reminisce about the first friend I've ever lost
I felt somebody just had to pay the cost
Cause in the future my homie won't be around
That's why it's a must
That I lay some fools down
I got my AK loaded it up
Caught some fools slippin and **buck*buck*buck**
But nothing changed
Even though I laid some fools down for the homie
I still felt the same
So I got me a fifth of C.B
Smoked some chronic and drunk myself to sleep
The next morning had to face the fact
That no matter what I did the homie wasn't comin back
I can't believe my dog is gone away
We was kickin it together just the other day
It all happened so fast
Some fools drove up and then straight started to blast
I dove for the floor
I didn't know me and my homie wouldn't kick it no more
And it hurted me deep
You're probably gone but I sure won't forget you G
I'm not the type that wore a tuxedo
So I wore a khaki suit to the funeral
All the homies was there
Me, Mad, Man & Stick's was a Paul Bearin'
His mother has started to cry
Then everybody in the church had tears in they eyes
It was a sad scene G
Simply, because we had a lotta love for the homie
As I carried his body to the grave side
I held on to his casket real tight
Said my final goodbyes
As I started to remember all the good times
We had up at Fremont High
I remember all the weed we used to smoke
And how we used to go jackin for turkish ropes
Bump a bitch at Skateland
It seems like we had the whole world in the palm of our hand
But it all ended quick
So quick that I couldn't believe the shit
I thought my eyes were deceiving me
You're probably gone but I sure won't forget you G
I sure won't forget you G
I'll never forget my homie Fruit Loop
Bird Man, Big Stomp, Touché or Duke
I got love for the dearly departed
Even though they left a nigga straight broken hearted
But I know they didn't mean it though
Cause life's a bitch
And it was their time to go
So I wrote a lil' something you can listen to
Just to let you know how much I'm missin you
Cause where you stood stands an empty space
And nobody will be able to take your place
10 years from now you'll see
You'll still be gone but I sure won't forget you G
I won't forget you G
I sure won't forget you G
"touché or Duke
I got love for the dearly departed
" He was a BG on 88th
Mad poetic . This song
When the song hits so hard word for word, you have to write the lyrics to overstand what’s being understood & still misunderstood until we understand.. damn 💯💯💯
It finally hit a milly! Honestly deserves 100mil+ Long live Sinister, wished the world got to know your music more.
Sinister from the hardest set recording this track with Tony Pizarro during hardest times to ever be alive. Had to be a serial killer to survive. GTA San Andreas main character was portraid from his older brother and the whole Groove Street Family was Family Swan Bloods in real life.
Rest well to my step father. You've already been gone 12 years. Seems like yesterday. Horace quincy parnell. The dad he didn't have to be.
