Damn it feels good to hear the Geto Boys. These are original old school rappers who know how to paint a picture. Dark and haunting in some regards, this is the stuff rap should be made of. This is one of the better old school albums I own and the CD is worth the price and then some. From pure anger to telling the story of life on the wrong side, the Geto Boys usually get it right.

I AM FROM HOUSTON JUST LIKE THE GETO BOYS, AND I LOVE THIS CD. MY FAVORITE TRACK "MIND'S PLAYIN TRICKS ON ME" PUT HOUSTON ON THE MAP. "DAMN IT FEELS GOOD TO BE A GANGSTA," A LAID BACK TRACK THAT DESCRIBES THE MIND OF A GANGSTER IS ALSO ANOTHER EXCELLENT TRACK ON THIS CD. AS A LOVER OF GANGSTA RAP, OLD SCHOOL AND NEW, I WOULD PUT THIS CD AT EQUAL RANK WITH NWA'S CLASSIC, "STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON."

Before I heard this album, I thought all the Geto Boys rapped about was drugs and violence. But this album shows their versatility. One of the tightest tracks, "The Unseen", is about the evils of abortion, and teaches responsibility. "Mind playin Tricks" is in my opinion the best of the classic Old Skool song and "Damn it feels good to be a Gangsta" is one of the realest songs i have ever heard. On this track, they say "We like being gangstas and we're not changing for anyone" BUY THIS CD

This album is a sampling of geto boys at their most comedic. The hardcore raps focusing on brutal rape and murder are hilarious if you take them for what they are: parody. The samples of Al Pacino in Scarface are great. I'm glad it pisses off the more sensitive listeners. This album was never meant for you anyway.

Going back to old school hardcore gangsta rap! this is where more "rap" artist should take the lyrics to. You have to have guts to throw down tracks like " Damn it feel good to be a Gangsta" Scarface, Got to let em Hang! Chuckie is enough to give the faint of heart reason to change the track or get up and leave the room! Today's "artist" should put da cell phone down and start taking notes from these "gangstas" Thanks! RLWJ.R.

Most of the songs are from other Geto Boys albums, some are remakes, others are just copied and pasted in. Bushwick Bill is the comic relief in what tend to be dark musical works. Scarface comes from the perspective of a paranoid manic depressive drug dealer. Willie D comes off as a part time hustler. This album has many of the classic tracks of old school hip hop.

This is some cool old school which deserves a place in your cd collection.The songs are pretty cool but the intros do get annoying sometimes.Give this cd a chance because it is much better than any hip hop today.

Yea dog - The Geto Boyz be floatin' the most flyest grooves on dey's phat Uncut Dope. Songs like 'Chucky' proves that they be real gangstas in the hood, boyee! Only the realest G's can 'preciate the "realism" of the "Da Bomb"est track on the whole disc, 'Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangster.' Contention III: Dis Album Be's Dope! Cowabunga!

I DON'T CARE FOR MUCH OLD SCHOOL RAPPIN.BUT THE ONLY TRACK I LIKE ON THIS ALBUM WOULD HAVE TO BE # 10 "DAMN IT FEELS GOOD TO BE A GANGSTA".

DON'T BUY THIS ALBUM IT'S NOT REALLY WORTH IT.I BOUGHT IT CAUSE I WAS CURIOUS.
