Bone thugs diss memphis
While Three 6 Mafia as a unit were never known for their storytelling, Lord Infamous was an underrated scribe with street tales, and gruesome exploits, from the stuff of nightmares. His intriguing solo cut from their album Chpt. It all goes awry for him and his accomplice as he awakens in a ditch, waiting for janitor to dig him out, but was suddenly murdered and dumped in the same ditch, leaving him buried alive.
See if the bloodcurdling scratches mixed with screams make your skin crawl. In graphic and immersive detail, Paul sets up a very violent armed robbery, turned murder, of a local drug dealer with the help of Crunchy Black, Lord Infamous, and Koopsta Knicca none delivered verses, but appeared during the closing skit. Backed by samples from The Usual Suspects , Lord, the self-proclaimed Kaiser Soze, takes us on a psychological journey as he's in a losing battle with his mind against the devil.
It's a wild and compelling tale from the darkest imagination of Lord Infamous that will deeply resonate, long after the song ends. The original trio of Scanman, MC Mack, and K-Rock served as counterparts to Three 6 Mafia, but stood out as more consistent and impressive lyricists in their own right. The low-key Bone Thugs diss grabbed listeners by the earlobes and dragged them through a terrifying soundscape of suspense and pure terror.
The group's bone shattering no pun intended , verses are also quite dynamic, proving that Three 6 weren't the only group hold the M-Town down. And while their very first tape shows a clear influence from N. Not to mention he could really spit—he had a doubletime flow that worked even on the most hard-headed club records, like "Tear Da Club Up.
Can we talk about Lord Infamous' look? He was always left-of-center from the other members. The long spike through the nose and his overall disheveled appearance was Punk Rock to me.
David: Haha I'm not someone who will get those references. But yeah, he had presence. Man he takes off on that "Who Run It" though—swagging shirtless in the overalls, hanging out the side of the truck. That was just an alright Infamous verse to me personally though, Boo kind of outshines him on that. Just that rapid-fire flow unloading on the track. The percussive force of his words had the same violence as their content.
Lord threatens to rip your skin off, boil it and pour your remains on your friends on there. Frightening stuff. Lord was essentially the glue guy of the group, he kept everything together between the different archetypes in the group. Juicy and Paul shifted to more of the crunk style rappers, Crunchy had his own vibe and Lord was the unchained dog that snapped you back into reality. I think as the group dwindled and members defected he was given more of a chance to shine Da Unbreakables but his savage ability was probably a hindrance for the group as they went more mainstream.
They weren't national yet. Infamous was the first one from the crew to do the, as Paul put it, tongue-twisting style. Lord Infamous was a lot darker, more violent, more twisted and satanic and less mainstream friendly than, like, Stay Trippy -era Juicy J. I do think that when Lord Infamous was dropped from the group after Da Unbreakables —their last truly classic album, in my opinion—they were never the same.
That was the real end of an era. They started to get a little more one dimensional. Juicy J still makes some cool music, but to me, Three 6 Mafia's best stuff had the feel of a bunch of personalities moving the records in different directions.
And Lord Infamous definitely felt like the blunt, violent, mystical horrorcore soul of the group, in a lot of ways. Irritated by Compton rappers getting more attention then New York artists, and more respect then he felt the music they were putting out warranted, Tim Dog went for blood. He waged war against the west and particularly N. But with a huge budget and a plethora of heated, pent-up bars he was able to propel the diss track format into brand new territory.
Dre um Killa' which slighted Dre as a studio gangster and included a picture insert of Dre in make-up and a sequin satin suit from his r'n'b days in World Class Wreckin' Cru, backing up the diss with bars saying "All of the sudden Dr. He also managed to get the last laugh by pointing out he was still making money on Dr.
The beef peaked years down the road and all hell broke loose at a concert in L. While both rappers deny any knowlegde or involvement in the events, their deeply-rooted rivalry lived on over various tracks to follow. While each instalment in the four-part series holds powerful diss potential intertwined with blissful stoner rap instrumentals, 'Def Wish III', where Eiht teases Quik about being a perm-wearing, clucker in a Khaki bikini, is the goofiest of the lot, and a must-listen.
It prompted Minister Louis Farrakhan to step in, organising a peace summit and force a truce between the two. But 'Who Shot Ya? An idea the LA Times even followed up on before they had to revoke the piece due to false allegations. It still holds a spot in the books as one of the m ost critically acclaimed and widely hyped tracks ever written.
