Grip It! On That Other Level

Geto Boys

A violent, paranoid, and foundational document of Southern rap. Gritty sample-work meets the raw psychological intensity of Houston's Fifth Ward.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The jarring transition into the high-pitched, manic energy of Bushwick Bill on Size Ain't Shit.
The relentless, heavy-handed drum loop on Do It Like It G.O. that feels like a physical confrontation.
Scarface's cold, clinical delivery of street economics during the second verse of Life in the Fast Lane.
